3 on Sunday


Sunday is my laundry day.  Yes, I have my own washer and dryer.  Yes, I can do laundry any day I'd like to.  But it makes life easier if I just pick a day to get it all done.  So every Sunday, its three loads.   Bedding, darks and lights.  I don't get too excited about clean khakis or navy polos for work - but I'm sure my co-workers appreciate the fact that they're clean and fresh! haha  What I do like, however, is clean towels in the bathroom, and clean jammies.   And ahhh the wonderfulness of clean sheets on the bed.  Nothing is better than crawling into a bed of clean sheets on a Sunday night - a perfect way to start off the work week :)

According to the weather guys, its only 43 degrees here in my corner of the Valley of the Sun.  But I braved the elements and ventured out to take Sadie for a walk.  I chuckle at the word "elements" though.  We don't have much in the way of various weather elements -- either the sun is shining, or it isn't!  :)  We've had overcast sprinkly days for two days and today, the sun is shining in all its glory.   Sadie and I schlepped around an extra block on our walk because it was so nice!  Even the birds are happy that the sun is shining, they're all singing their own tunes as well!

As we turned into our driveway at the end of our walk, it struck me how it was going to be a beautiful day.  The mesquite tree out front is very fragrant after a rain - smelling a little woodsy and clean.  The dryer vent from the garage is along the front walk as well, and my sheets were drying, the smell of warm Gain in the air.  I opened the blinds on all the windows to let in the light; after pulling my warm sheets from the dryer, I snapped them into play on my bed .... ahhhh my Sunday night will start off well, don't you think?? :)

By the way,
does anyone
still hang sheets
on the line?

I remember Mom
doing that when I
was a kid :)
