Just made it!

Today, I had a full load hanging out back - sheets and everything.  I had to leave the laundry (not recommended!) to run some errands.  There were some clouds, but it was a sunny day.

Things took longer than expected - and the sky started to cloud up.  I could tell that rain was not far off.  When we pulled into the driveway, I jumped out of the car and went straight to the clothesline.  Experience taught me that pulling clothes off of the line too fast can be counter-productive - steady pulling is the way to go.

I was prepared - the basket was right there waiting for me.  I started on the sheets, deciding to roll them instead of folding (to save time).  Next were the pillowcases.  Finally, I started on the clothing.  I got it all in the basket, and as I was heading for the back door, the first raindrop hit me in the head.

Just made it!
