Mama taught all of us girls the basics of laundry.  We learned how to use the washing machine, the proper way to hang clothes on the line, and when we were blessed with an automatic dryer, how to use it.  Once everything was cleaned, she taught us how to iron, then fold items and put them away.  And yes, she even taught us how to fold fitted sheets.Fitted sheets are the bane of our existence.  No matter how hard we try, they just don’t fold well.  Fold in half, tuck the fitted corners together, fold again.  Tuck in the flap.  It looked easy.  It sounded easy when Mama explained.  After quite a bit of trial and error, I managed.  And then, the manufacturers came out with elastic corners.  I went back to Folding Fitted Sheets 101 all over again.But folding fitted sheets can also be a metaphor for life. Listen in and learn how folding fitted sheets may just help you ‘neaten’ up the wrinkles in life!Send us a textSupport the showThe Farm Wife (website)Let's Visit!
