Girl stuff

I decided to begin Elle's introduction to the list of must see chick flicks by borrowing Anne of Green Gables from Kristen. So far, she loves it. (We're not quite done with the first DVD yet--lousy homework and bedtime!)
I'm not sure when she'll be ready for P&P, but I can hardly wait!



















Today, I was doing laundry and I decided to finally do all those items that have to be hand washed. This, of course, included my bras. Since I was planning to exercise with Kristen and Hannah and wear my trusty jogging bra, I thought this would be a good time to wash it. I put a little bleach in the water to make it nice and white, but I decided it was too much for one little (ya, like AAA) bra. So, I thought (stupidly), I'm SURE my bras will be PLENTY dry by the time I'm done exercising and need to wear it. (Ha!) Well, after three hours, they were still soaking wet. It was getting uncomfortably close to the time I needed to go pick up Elle, so I had to break out the hair dryer. That took a really long time. I was sick of fanning the thing, plus it was time to go, so I just decided to put it on--it seemed dry enough. Unfortunately, it was still a bit damp and I smelled like I just stepped out of the pool. Next time, I'll be smarter and do one bra washing at a time like I usually do!

You're so good...I just throw them in the washing machine. :) I used to throw them in the dryer too, but now I have a HORRIBLE dryer that tears and burns my clothes (the dryer and I have choice words together sometime).

Tal likes Pride & Prejudice so maybe Elle is getting there. She tried to read a little Jane Austen, but thought that she (Jane) "talked" too much. "Maybe when I'm older" she says.

Yea, Kristen!
I tried washing bras in the washer, but since they are the padded kind, they went all out of shape!

I'm lazy and just use the washer, but I do air dry. But when they aren't dry, I go comando and just put on a sweatshirt. We small people can get away with it!

Hand-washed bras? What language is that?
