I know you have all been wondering how our clothesline adventure is going ever since I wrote about my brilliant idea to put up a clothesline during hurricane season. Well, I am happy to officially declare it a success! Twenty feet of line sounds like an awful lot until you try to hang your clothes on it, so I actually ordered a second line. We (meaning my husband) had to criss-cross the lines rather than run them parallel because of our backyard configuration. Even if it looks a bit non-traditional, the clothes still get dry. Last week, we actually had excessive heat warnings every day, so I was able to dry every single load of laundry on the clothesline! Yippee! I did err on one point, though. I failed to make the lines low enough for the girls to reach. Does Miracle Grow work on kids? Fellow cloth diaperers, I am pleased to report that the sun has an amazingly wonderful effect on my cloth diapers. My previously stained used since 2006 cloth diapers look like I just bought them! They are bright white! I am sure there is a science lesson in there somewhere...I can't wait to see the savings on our Entergy bill, although I guess last week's savings were probably eaten up by air conditioner use, since it was so hot!
