Lol, Terriamn! But I bet it wasn’t too funny at the time, all that extra work. My mother used to stuff tissues in her pockets and sleeves of every article of clothing she wore. I learned quickly to do a search before dumping the load of clothes in. Cannot tell you the number of times I missed some and I’d be picking shreds from the wet laundry.

Duckling great finish!
Had an experience I can laugh about now. I washed a load of darks that I had separated out the night before. When I opened the washer t(e clothes were completely covered in shredded paper. I mean completely and thickly covered. Not panicked yet, just thought rewash them. To make a long story short we found our we were missing our Texan monthly news paper so that fell into my basket somehow and to get rid of the lint I had to wash and dry each item separately to get the lint off. Everything but my black knit shorts ended up being ok. What a mess!
