I Wash My Pant Legs One Leg at a Time

So as I mentioned there really are no appliances in the house so all the washing is done by hand. Being of the adventurous sort I thought I may give it a go today and wash all of my 10 items that I have been wearing over the last 10 or so days.

I got prepared by purchsing some wash soap, and reading up on how to best go about getting nice clean clothes. The two younger girls helped me get set up, and in short time realised I was going to take three days to wash my clothes. They took over and finished up for me after agreeing that they would be paid for their services (which is part of the agreement with PA so I was totally fine with that).

So I guess I should really say that I watch my pants being washed one leg at a time.

Otherwise the power went out last night which I had read happens quite frequently in Stl Louis. So far the power has gone out for about 5 minutes at most, but last night it was right before dinner and stayed out for over an hour.

The funny thing is that nothing changes when the power is out. Dinner is cooked over a propane element, so we ate at the normal time under the glow of a battery operated flood light. One girl said they were half way through dinner when the power went out so everyone just whippedo ut their cell phones and they ate under a blue glow.

Just a short one for today...
