I am joining in with Heavenly Homemakers today for a round of Gratituesday.
Laundry Room Lessons
Upon learning that my washing machine was in fact unrepairable I felt bummed. When I found out I broke the machine from jamming it too full for too many years I was disheartened.
We had a one month during which all of our clothes were being piled high and toted around to Grammy’s “Laundry-Mat”.
Yes, my son is jumping into the dirty "hamper".
Of course since we are in the middle of “redoing” the main level I was less than thrilled to reallocate funds from decor toward a washer. I mean, I was just about to buy fabric re-enter the fabric store for the 5th time hoping this would be the time I didn’t have a dizzy spell and dry mouth from utter disorientation.
But look it came with a friend. Awww
I thought for sure that when this day came I would kiss the pretty buttons and hug the machine for its awesomeness. But, instead what I found was a huge amount of gratitude for the simple ability to do the wash.
I am very grateful today for the honor to load up my family’s dirty duds. I hope this new found respect for clothing maintenance lasts a long, long time.
Love, Jess

You’re right. Just the fact that we have a nice machine to wash our clothes in is such a blessing. Thanks so much for joining Gratituesday!
