I got a lot of comments on why I would need to do so much laundry by hand when my washer broke. Here's why. I am terribly, terribly allergic to cats and keep my furniture covered when I am not sitting on it so when I do want to sit down it is not covered in cat dander.
I use a lot of this. I discovered that hand sanitizer on a damp washcloth works just as well to clean allergens from kitty surfaces but hand sanitizer is hard to come by. This pricey stuff is not.
We have a large corner couch in the downstairs and a small one upstairs so it's a lot of sheets that have to be changed and washed every day. We also have towels in all the pets beds that are picked up and washed daily too. It's not a big deal when you have a working washer and dryer but when you don't it looks like this. I think my new ladder clothesline was quite clever of me. The yard is too muddy to put up a rope.
At least the weather cleared up so I could move all the dripping to the outside. My little Ikea drying rack is more precious to me now than ever. I went online to look for another and they want a small fortune for these things. This one is $9.99. Amazon wants anywhere from $20-50 for one. If I ever do get to Ikea again I am picking up a bunch of these. I always seem to have it in use for something or other.
Speaking of Ikea, this is a reminder that I am still living in this horror. I had just come to the conclusion that my dream Ikea kitchen was not going to happen so we had started to do research on places that would deliver our cabinets and counter top without us having to go in and work with a designer for hours. That would mean just literally replacing the cabinets we have for size and placement. At this point I was okay with that. A pandemic really puts things into perspective. If I could deal with this mess for 7 months now who needs a bigger, fancier kitchen? Not me. Then Pup got sick and the washer broke and it's all cost us a fortune so now we are back to just looking at it all in amazement and wondering what the heck to do-again.
