Living On Oxygen for Life
Adapt and Overcome!
How creative do you get when you are faced with a new challenge in your life? A year ago, my husband (K), bought us a new clothes washer and dryer. We wanted the largest load capacity we could afford. We didn’t realize how large the washing machine would actually be. Or should I say… how deep the machine would be.
I’m actually 5’1” and to reach inside the machine to unload or to rebalance a load for the spin cycle is virtually impossible. So I had to come up with a new way of doing laundry. I found what I needed in my kitchen. In fact, I already use them to get things down from the upper cabinet. I just love Club Crackers but K always stores the on the top shelf.
Kitchen tongs are incredibly versatile. It’s a perfect tool to use for extending your reach inside both the clothes washer and dryer. Just think of me as a little MacGyver! lol! Stay well and stay home to be safe. *hugs*

I use a backscratcher to get things out of my washer!
That’s so awesome Cindy! We do what we have to do to get the job done! =o) Hope you are staying home and healthy. *hugs*
Awesome! Why didn’t I think of that? LOL 🙂 I am going to pick up an extra set at Dollar tree next time I am there. You have an inch on me, I totally get this! You know these were designed by a six-foot-tall man! Haha. Blessings and Best Wishes!
I think you’re so right! My husband is 6 feet tall and he has no problem reaching in the machine. In fact we got the matching dryer & I have to use my tongs to pull out the clothes or practically climb in the dryer to reach the furthest back clothes! 😁 Stay safe.
Creative! We made sure to get a front loader when we changed ours.😀 Stay safe!
Smart! I’m not to sure I like the low water and practically no agitator. My clothes twist around each other a lot. Grrr… 😁 Please stay safe. We’re doing all we can to stay home.
So are we. Have not left the property since 3/10!
I had to go get my liver lab work for my PH medication. *sigh*
That must have been no fun!
