clothesline





Well the temperature outside is right, but in the middle of the day, not at night and even though daylight savings is in effect, the rapid temperature drop after sunset tends to dampen the enthusiasm for fires. Rain also. I have a wonderful clothesline but most sundays when i wash clothes, i either have school, a meeting, or it is rainy. The last time i hung out my sheets the wind was blowing them out parallel to the ground. they smelled good after i captured them and brought them in. good thing i am as tall as i am. sometimes it would be nice to hang out people in the wind to blow away lurking attitude problems and bring them in with a fresh clean look on the world. students were complaining today about working on sunday. the choices are longer school year and shorter vactions or work about 4 sundays during the year. let's think about this. bring out the clothespins and the wind.
