    Red face So I left a tissue in the wash...

    So these days I'm usually doing 50 different things at once (slight exaggeration!) and it just happened that I put some washing into the machine the night before I actually put the washer on...

    The next day I just grab some other dirty clothes and chuck them in so I can quickly get the washing done and hung out before I go out! (still with me?!)

    So, um yeah. I didn't check my jeans pocket did I.
    tissue in with the darks!

    DH has a field day when I do this! Lucky it doesn't happen too often...

    PLEASE tell me I'm not the only one who does it!!

    No, I don't own one either. If it's rainy, it's on the drying rack for me.

    If it makes you all feel better... I tossed a used (wet) disposable nappy through with my darks last week. Ewwwwww. That was a nightmare. Teach me for not using cloth!

    I'm blaming baby brain!

    I usually get some sticky tape and wrap it around my hand and just stick the tissues bits to it...does that make sense?!

    I do it too. Not as often as I used to tho. It is a big pain!
