Laundry

I woke up at 8 o’ clock in the morning on a Sunday morning to do the laundry. After having my breakfast, I watched TV for about half an hour to watch the news. After watching the TV I went to my room and took all my dirty clothes out of my closet and out them in the laundry basket. I went downstairs in the garage where my washing machine is. I put all my clothes along with the washing powder in the washing machine and then turned machine on until the process was completed or the machine stopped. Then I took all my clothes out of the machine and put them in the dryer for sixty minutes. After the machine stopped, I took my clothes out of the dryer and took them in my room and hung them in my closet. The entire process of the laundry took almost an hour and it wasn’t hard for me at all as my cousin helped me with it.

I have done laundry in Pakistan which was way different from the laundry that we do here. We don’t use machines in Pakistan and everything is done by hands. First, you have to put all the dirty clothes in a bucket and fill it up with water. Then, take clothes out of the bucket and put it in a tub that is half filled up with water and detergent. Rub the clothes with each other and then put all the clothes in the third bucket (used for rinsing) that has clean water in it, so that the soapsuds can get out the clothes. Next, you have to squeeze the water out of the clothes and hang on the cloth lines, in the back yard or outside the house where sun light can dry the clothes.
