I am hoping that the events of the morning before we even got to 9 a.m. are not indicative of how the rest of the day will unfold. In addition to having sick kiddos (though they seem to be doing better after getting some ibuprofen in them, though still coughing), I went to get laundry out of the dryer that I had put in last night, to find
RED CRAYON and
GUM, melted all over the laundry and the inside of the dryer!!!!!
Aaaaaagggghhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!
I found a helpful website for getting crayon out, though it called for:
1 c. Tide (I only had Era...we'll see)
1 c. Oxyclean (only had about 2 scoops left, so I threw it in)
1 c. white vinegar (that I had!)
1 c. Shout (didn't have any)
It's soaking on HOT now; then I'll have to run through the wash cycle on hot again...
I'll let you know how I make out!

Same thing happened to me a few months ago... gum all over the dryer... I took a fabric softener dryer sheet, put some liquid fabric softener on it, and after the dryer was warmed up again I rubbed the gum off with the dryer sheet. It took awhile (I had to keep warming the dryer up) but eventually it worked!
