Things you find......

A little levity, if you will.  Things you find while doing laundry for the male of the species! Big boys - carpenter pencils,  a pocket knife, 6 nails, a few screws, a tiny chunk of rebar (???) and only 5 socks.  (yes, the man started the laundry, did not check pockets and mixed work clothes and socks) And some jingly change, all smaller than a quarter. Little boys are far more interesting!  2 pieces of leggo; 5 wrappers; 1 chewed up, bent up straw, a small volkswagon (ok, so it was less than 1" long); 3 rocks, 6 bottle caps, an empty box for caps for the cap-gun, and a red and green rubber frog.  And 65 cents. Granted each individual only put 3 pair of pants in the laundry, but it delivers quite the interesting array of items.  Wish there was more money.  Rule at my house - if you find money in the tub, it's yours!  It's finally cool enough to take a long walk.  Off I go!

Oh I hear you on the laundry findings.  I keep a jar in the cabinet over the washer that I put the change in.  It used to be my Baskin & Robins money...now, it goes to the 'clothing fund'! I do hate it when someone/anyone leaves a tissue in a pocket and I don't catch it!!!! ugh, what a mess! enjoy your walk.  It's too smoky here to be outside.  I'm headed to the mall to walk. (or maybe shop)Lisa
