STORY TIME

Once upon a time there was a wife and mother who tried her hardest to to stay on top of everything . She would try to make sure that her husband and children were loved and taken care of .That they knew their true value to her and their place in her heart . She would take time to play with and nurture them. She worked hard on doing her household chores .The bills the dusting the cleaning the cooking. There was one thing that never got to see as much of this poor woman as it demanded of her .Something in this perfect house, this seemingly perfect life, that was never happy . It was the laundry room . That room was a ominous room one that could suck her in.Drain her of joy and happiness .
Try as she could she was not like her friends. That would be able to say how happy they were to see the bottom of their laundry basket .This poor poor woman never saw the bottom of a laundry basket unless it was the day she bought it and brought it in the house to fill .
One day as she was locked in the dungeon(laundry room),and she looked down into her Tide bottle and saw a very small very clean and shiny man .
Odd she thought a man near a laundry room .
So she asked him how he got there and if he wanted her to help him out of the Tide bottle . He told her that he had fallen in one day and could not get out but that if she would get him out she would be greatly rewarded .
Well she thought 2+2= laundry fairy .So why not? She of all people could use a laundry fairy no more wash, nothing to fold, nor iron .Nothing to soak or Shout .Nothing to hang .How grand ! So she freed that very small very clean and shiny little man with lighting speed .Waiting hoping, dreaming of how much nicer life would be with out the hassle and worry of the laundry dungeon . Out popped this spring fresh man right before her very eyes . He said to her "My dear kind and self less woman thank you for freeing me from my bottle" ."I see you in this tiny room day in and day out" ."You come in and spend countless hours of your life here ."I can tell you really enjoy this room" -she started to correct him - but he continued - "my reward for you, my gift for you will make your life so much happier it will bring you so much joy" - get on with it she thought - "I give to you a gift ....
POOF suddenly another washer and dryer appeared and POOF never ending laundry baskets .She stood there speechless, shocked ,confused - what happen to her laundry fairy ? No more wash no more ironing ? Before the very small very clean and shiny man disappeared he told her that because she enjoys doing the wash so much his gift to her was all the laundry she could ever handle. Enough laundry to keep her in dirty socks and shirts for the rest of her life .then POOF he was gone
The moral of this story ladies is
If you ever see a man in the laundry room ...
LOCK HIM IN !

the only time I ever see a man in my laundry room is when He's looking for something in one of the pockets of the clothes I picked up off of the bedroom floor and tossed into the basket. He actually asked me where the shorts were before proceeding to pick the pockets.
go figure.
