my neighbor's grandaughter didn't know about hanging out clothes.  |
|
My favotite neighbor walked over yesteray w/her grandaughter who is here visiting from kansas. She is about 9 years old, i guess. Anyway another neighbor was hanging out some clothes. T he little girl commeneted on her doing that with is her dryer broken? KIDS miss so much nowadays because we don't do things like we use to do. I just thought it strange that she had never seen anybody hang out clothes before. DO YOU??

| mobilestimulus (3) | 7 months ago | My grandmother used to have one of those outdoor clothes dryers, the kind you could turn and fill. I remember as a little kid helping her pin up all the laundry using wooden clothes pins. Those were the days!

ANTIQUELADY (11603) | 7 months ago | That is true but it just surprized me that she had never seen anyone doing that. Too many things have become extinct.

4. jugsjugs (3261) | 7 months ago | I now hang my linen out as my electric bill was getting very high and now that it is sunny most of the time i try to make the most of it.I think that is very strange that she thought the ladies dryer was broken.My children wait until i have hung the linen out and then when it is nearly dry they tend to give the washing that extra rinse with the hose.Dont you just love children.Happy Mylotting.

GardenGerty (20557) | 7 months ago | My dad was a city boy, and he thought milk came from horses--because when he was a child the milk wagon would come around and it was pulled by a horse. Even seventy years ago children could be fooled or mislead. I like that he tells stories on himself.

carolscash (4886) | 7 months ago | You bring back a lot of memories by mentioning horse drawn milk wagons as that is how my grandfather began his career in the milk industry. He was a milkman who started with horse adn wagon. I wish my kids could see that. At least my kids do see me hang clothes out. They also know eggs come from chickens,pork comes from pigs, and that chickens have heads and feet. Wow they are smart!

6. GardenGerty (20557) | 7 months ago | I do not find it strange at all that she has not seen it. People feel like they are too busy to do it now a days, but I think it makes folding simpler. There are too many neighborhood associations that prohibit clothes lines, because it is "tacky", so they cannot hang clothes even if they want to.

7. gdesjardin (310) | 7 months ago | I used to at my old house...however this house has too many trees in the backyard along with way too many bird....and way too many clothes I have had to rewash if you catch my drift with the birds and all. Anyways, I miss not being able to hang out my laundry...I saved a lot of money on my electric bill plus I loved that fresh air clean smell of my clothes.

ANTIQUELADY (11603) | 7 months ago | HEY, I hated it when birds did that on my clother, nasty things. U do save money by doing that but i can't do it anymore. Thanks for your response.

8. guybrush (3507) | 7 months ago | I absolutely DO still hang out my clothes! I don't have a dryer (and don't want one) - and there's nothing nicer than fresh sheets with the sunshine in them. My daughters find if they are renting apartments, there is no hanging line in the grounds and they are forced to use dryers - but on occasions I've had to use them (on holidays, for instance), I hate the way things are all crumpled - and it takes so long for them to dry. Think of all the power it wastes, too!

ANTIQUELADY (11603) | 7 months ago | GOOD FOR YOU, Don't they smell good when u hang them out. U are right about saving power. I think they pull alot of electricity. I always took pride in seeing then hung out when i could still hang out. U are smart to do in more ways than one. Thanks for responding.

9. stephcjh (22992) | 7 months ago | Kids really do miss out on a whole lot these days. Everything is so easy for them. Alot of them do not want to learn or know anything about the older days either. They have no idea what to do without technology things.

ANTIQUELADY (11603) | 7 months ago | They sure do. It would do them all good if they had to do everything the hard way for awhile. They might appreciate how good they have it nowadays.
