This is not the most typical in the country, but that’s okay with me ๐Ÿ™‚

Step 1: Get down on your knees and thank Jesus, because………………………….wait for it………………………………wait for it………………..pause for dramatic effect……………………………………….We have a WASHING MACHINE this month!!!

Step 2: Take your bag of dirty clothes and dump them in the machine

Step 3: Put the powder detergent in the back slot and the fabric softener in the side slot

Step 4: Push the water temperature you desire, the water level you need, “fuzzy” mode, and then start.

Step 5: Walk away from the machine!!!! Listen for song at the end of the cycle- It’s a cute song!!

Step 6: Take the clean clothes out and bring them to the back of the house to dry.

Step 7: Put some clothes on hangers, some on the line and my favorite is lying them out on the roof!!

      

Step 8: Pray that it doesn’t rain (which it rains 3 times a week).

Step 9: Take clothes down and do a happy dance that you have clean clothes that smell good for the first time in 5 months!!

 
This was a nice change of pace, that’s for sure ๐Ÿ™‚
As some as my teammates found out, this process is a bit more challenging when the water runs out; especially if the tub started to fill and then stopped after a minute ๐Ÿ™
