Growing older has its problems, but forgetting stuff is the
worst problem of all. Friday, I washed a
load of clothes that had my dress pants and my favorite blue dress shirt in
it. I put the load into the dryer but
got busy working outside and forgot the clothes. When I remembered, I hurried inside, but it
was too late. The heavy load of dry
clothes had smushed the wrinkle-free shirt into a wrinkle-set shirt. So, I got all of the dry clothes out except
the pants and shirt and threw the damp white clothes in on top and started the
dryer. I felt so clever … until I got
busy again. The dryer had stopped with
the dress shirt under all of the dry white clothes. So, I got a cup of water, soaked one of the
just-dried towels, added it to the shirt and pants and started the dryer. But this time, I set the stopwatch on my cell
phone, and went back outside to work. My
alarm went off, I came inside, and removed my precious blue shirt (looking
great). I would have felt clever, but
this was the third time for the pants and shirt in the dryer … but at least the
shirt and pants felt so soft. Wonder
why? Ha, ha! Sorry, I just couldn’t make a spiritual
application. Hey, can you help me out?
