I did a laundry load of sheets yesterday. I always try to check the washer and dryer settings when I've finished using "Regular - High Heat" and to set them back to "Permanent Press - Medium Heat" so that I won't make a mistake with the next wash.
Today I put in a load of light colors, including slips and bras for both myself and my spouse and a whole lot of my panties (spouse wears cotton, I wear the sexy stuff). I carefully checked the washer to make sure I'd reset it to warm rather than hot, but, somehow, I forgot to check the dryer.
The dryer was about to time out and I was on the phone chattering with a GG friend, so I casually cranked some more time in, and that's when I noticed the "Regular - High Heat" setting on the dryer! My poor panties and our poor bras had been through an entire cycle of high!
They look O.K. right now, despite their ordeal, but I'm in a panic that the next time I slip them o, all of the tiny elastic fibres will snap and sprout and I'll end up with something that looks like a ghillie bikini.
Yipes!
