什麼都是一坨
從我們搬家. 衣服就都是我在洗.
其實我到覺得無所為. 因為反正其實是洗衣機在洗.
然後晾及疊. 其實不難. 所以我一直以來都沒抱怨過.
雷老公有時看我一個人在做. 不好意思. 會跑來幫忙.
所以洗衣服這事上. 我跟雷老公是和平相處.
但…但…上星期開始. 我快受不了他的壞習慣啦.
那就是. 我在晾衣服時. 只要晾到是雷老公的.
他的衣服就是”一坨” :hitmyself:
扎實. 扭曲. 纏在一起的一坨.
大部份袖子是纏在衣服裡了. 所以袖子跟身體部份的衣服就緊緊纏在一起.
然後襪子也永遠是一坨的.
利害的是. 褲子不知道怎麼變一坨的.
不過都是內外顛倒. 脫一半. 所以褲腳都卡在褲子的臀部付進.
不幫他翻開來. 褲子就不會乾.
本來我還不再乎. 最近越來越冷了. 我就越晾越生氣.
因為平白無顧. 害我在外面站超久. 進到屋子裡後. 都快凍死了.
我就先很和平的跟雷老公說.
他很快的就道歉. 然後說會注意.
今天我洗衣服. 在晾時. 剛覺得ㄟ…棒雷老公. 不二過歐.
就發現…. 
他先生利害了.
現在不是一小坨. 變一大大大大坨.
現在. 他不是上衣一坨. 褲子一坨. 襪子一坨了.
是內衣(短袖). 外衣(長袖). 內褲. 長褲. 襪子. 全部內翻外包在一起.
所以不仔細看不是一坨. 仔細看. 其實是超級一大坨.
所以與其只是幫他把袖子翻出來.
現在我還要幫他把所有的衣服先分開. 然後才能晾.
不然長袖包短袖. 長褲包內褲. 另加襪子還卡在褲腳. 跟本不可能晾乾.
我就想到一個很賊的方法.
那就是. 他怎麼脫. 我就怎麼晾.
我們都是沒乾淨衣服了. 才洗衣服的人.
他的衣服晾不乾. 就是他的問題了…ㄏㄏㄏ
他不是要穿奇裝異服. 就是要自己拿去烘乾. 然後要自己幫衣服分家.
我這老婆. 夠狠吧. :proud:

採蘋果
Mrs. ThePoint跑不見人啦.
因為跑去跟人家的小孩去採蘋果啦.
聽說. 在新英格蘭這區. 秋天採蘋果是一大趣事. 我就超想去的.
經過一翻打聽. 聽說去這種地方. 要帶小朋友去.
不然沒有大人在自己去的. 會很奇怪.
我看了看四周的朋友. 就雷老公同事有一個小女兒.
我勸說了半天. 終於打動他們.
所以我們就四個大人. 呵護著我們的小擋箭牌.
出發去採蘋果搂.
我們不只採了3種不同的蘋果. 還有好多水梨. 跟葡萄歐.
我們還一面採. 一面吃.
吃的最多的. 是我們的小朋友啦.
她不到兩歲. 一顆蘋果吃不到5口. 就掉了. 超好笑.
她的蘋果掉了. 就自己再摘一個來吃. 好方便歐.
聽說她一回家. 不到5點. 就累的呼呼大睡到隔天早上.
因為她一直要幫忙. 自己拖好大一袋蘋果.
在那裡不斷的採. 然後還自己提.
她人又沒袋子大. 就一直跌倒.
我們大家也沒注意. 就讓她提.
結果結帳才知道. 她竟然提了快4磅的蘋果耶.
好利害. 粉重內.
難怪會回家後累成那樣…ㄏㄏㄏ
