household hints

Recommended Posts

I don't use a dirty clothes hamper. I just leave the lid on the washing machine up. I toss them in there. When it is full, I turn it on. Then, straight to the dryer.

I don't iron. I leave the clothes in the dryer. Before I take a shower, I turn the dryer on for 5-10 minutes.
They come out wrinkle-free and warm.

I use a hamper and separate my clothes by colors ever since I ended up with pink dress shirts. Those shop rags can really fuck up your colors.

I don't iron. I know where the dry cleaner is.

thanks for taking showers Bill...we really appreciate that!:D

I was in the laundry room the other day and there was a pink shirt hanging on the back of the door. I asked firefly if it was hers and did she want me to hang it up. She looked all embarassed and said, no, it WAS your work shirt. I just looked at her and said, no it is now your shirt, do you want me to hang it up?:D:D:D

Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.

Pink shirts are very metro, but I suspect that they clash with the orange on the Harley jacket.

And quit thinking about me in the shower. :o

Also, another helpful hint, you can conserve water by washing yourself faster. The best way is to shower with a friend and let her wash you.

"Fast... slow... a little faster..." :ph34r:

In the colder areas during winter leave the stopper in the shower then wait until the water has cooled to room temp before draining. No sense letting all the heat go down the drain plus it adds a bit of moisture to the dry air. If you have small kids this may not be a good idea.

Save your newspapers and donate them to the local animal shelter for cage and kennel liners.

Bachelor Salad is a real time saver... tear a hunk of lettuce off the head, hold it over the sink, pour dressing on, and eat...
no muss no fuss... :)



If you have dogs, you can do this in the living room while watching tv:DB|

Not sure why I know this, but,

Wipe your bathroom mirrors with a little washing-up liquid on a kleenex paper towel, no more steaming up.

The way I look in the morning, I want steam [:/]

I just tend to eat outside in the back yard a lot.

If it is a meal with one serving, plates are not necessary. I can sit on a lawn chair and just eat out of the pot.

If there are any spills, just hose off the chair.

Dogs can save water and fuss for floor cleaning and for rinsing the dishes before putting them into the dishwasher.

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)
