Appliance Blues

Hi everyone, I didn't have to work today so I decided to do some laundry. I did the first load and put it in the dryer. When I went downstairs to do the second load I opened the dryer and noticed the clothes were still wet. I thought I hadn't turned on the dryer. So, I put another load in the washer and turned the dryer on and went back upstairs. I waited until the load was finished and went back down to the basement. I opened the dryer and the stupid clothes were still wet. I was so mad. I turned the dryer on and stood there for about 5 minutes. I opened the dryer and it was warm so I thought well maybe it decided to work now. I closed the dryer and turned it back on. I waited about ten more minutes and opened it up again. The clothes were as wet as they were when I put them in there and the air was cold. I took the clothes out and hung them up in the basement. I had already washed another load while this one was supposed to dry, so, I took that load out of the washer and hung that load up also. I continued washing clothes until I ran out of room in the basement to hang clothes. I got 5 loads washed and hung in the basement. I had to stop because I have no where else to hang clean wet clothes. The bad thing is that with the basement as cold as it is, it will take a long time for the clothes to dry. And, that certainly wasn't today.
I came upstairs and started cleaning my bedroom. I have the appliance blues.!!

My dryer got tired and quit working for me.
Da da da da da
I have the appliance blues.
It worked last week but not today,
Da da da da da
I have the appliance blues.
It has been a good worker for many years now
And decided it was too tired to continue some how
I have to find a nice man to carry it out.
Now I have the appliance blues.
Da da da da da.

I am sorry you have the appliance blues. I am not sorry for the great song that came out of the appliance blues! I hope that your clothes dry and you get your blues taken care of. Maybe you could try a hairdryer. I wouldn't suggest hanging them from a ceiling fan to dry. I did that with a pair of panties once and broke the whole darn thing. Sean gave me quite a lecture. He also thinks screwdrivers and shoes should not be used as hammers. Go figure.
