    Cut your jeans into squares and pieces BEFORE washing!! Jeans were clean, but I always wash them again when I get them. I've spent the last 2 hours with a total mess. Balls and knots of string all tied together in lumps. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

    I don't know what I was thinking. Maybe I was so excited to find my scissors (another story), I just started cutting and into the wash they went.

    Never again! :cry:

    Well...we all live and learn--from each other! I once (and only once) froze bananas with the peel still on... :oops:

    There are some lessons that we thankfully have to learn only once.
