I can’t believe it is already Friday…again. The days, they move with lightening speed.
Today’s Five Minute Friday prompt is: LAUNDRY.
****************************************************
When I first saw today’s prompt, I thought, laundry? Really? What is there to say about laundry?
Stinky clothes. Stained with mud and crud.
Piles of laundry…never ending mounds and pounds of clothes.
Ordinary, mundane, several times a week, laundry.
Have to get it done, not really a choice. A chore that I can do without thinking about it.
But, as I write this, something occurs to me.
Sometimes the greatest things can be found in the most simple and ordinary. (and no, I don’t mean finding change in jeans pockets…although that is a perk)
I am thankful for the family members that wear these clothes.
I am grateful that I have a washer and dryer and don’t have to lug all this mess to the Laund-O-Rama. (been there, done that)
After all, there is a story in my Mt. Washmore.
The story of our lives.
