Laundry day

12/9/13

Saturday I got my first taste of hand washing clothes.  Woohoo!

The actual washing machine is the white thing to the right, ...

But the rinsing must be done by hand. 





Ugh I never knew this was so hard!

Whew that's a lot of laundry! 


It is so easy to use clothing when you know that you can just throw your dirty clothes in the washer.  It changes your perspective when you have to do all of that work with your own hands.  You began to use your clothing a lot more conservatively when you see a women spending an entire day scrubbing away at your clothes.  Your actions affect others.  When you know your actions affect others in such a way, use a little less and do a little more.  Use less clothing to lighten their load a little, pick up your trash on the table when you go out to eat so its easier for the waiter.  Just make sure that you are thinking about those around you and not only your own comforts.  Because trust me!  Washing tons of laundry begins to hurt your hands!
