Today's challenge is to find beauty in something ordinary, or ugly. I was thinking about this when I went to sort out my laundry. The washing machine is not much to look at, but it's a machine that makes my life so much easier. If like me, you've tasted what it's like to handwash your laundry, you will never take the washing machine for granted again. I remember living in a house without any laundry facilities for 6 months and although it was over the summer, it was quite a chore to do laundry. Small clothes were fine to handwash, but beddings were so heavy and your hands just go numb and crinkly submerged in the water for so long. So to me, a washing machine, and the dryer, are the most beautiful things in my house.
