Do Over

Big Daddy and I sometimes declare a do-over day. Do-over day's usually happen when things just aren't going well. About ten o'clock today, I opened the washing machine took one look inside and declared a do-over day. I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but I knew something was amiss. And then it hit me, somehow one of Donny's Pull Ups found its way to the wash. I can't even describe the mess. If you have never witnessed the inside of a wet diaper, let me explain. Basically the liquid is absorbed by a gel like substance. It wouldn't be so bad if it stayed in a big blob, but no, it turns in to tiny little globs of gel. Two wash cycles, a cup of salt (Internet suggestion), a trashed vacuum and an hour later, I was finally rid of the mess. No other way to say it, that SUCKED! I wish I would have photographed the moment to share with all of you.

  1. I have done this also, and boy did it SUCK! I didn't know where to even begin. I scooped out as much of the gel that I could, shaked the clothes out outside and ran the rinse cycle at leaast 3 times. I feel for you, friend :)

  2. This is a case where you wish you were terribly rich so you could just call and order a new washer.
