IvySaysHi @IvySaysHi (4603) • United States 29 Sep

Laundry Day is Saturday Afternoon

Kharla Jolly @kobesbuddy (78833) • East Tawas, Michigan 17 Aug 24

As most of you know, we do have our washing machine hooked up. It's easy for us to wash clothing, but it's very expensive to dry them, at the laundry mat. This is very necessary, of course at this time. We had a large load of...
