More Laundry Woes or Why I Need To Stop Listening to My 2 Year Old

So Hunter and have been spending a not-so-quiet day at home.  Its been drizzling on and off all morning.  I worked out and tackled a big cooking project while Hunter played in various rooms of the house.  At one point he played on my bed while I put my head down and rested.   After a while I went to grab a cup of coffee while Hunter continued to play on my bed.  After about 15 minutes, I heard some words that no parent wants to hear in the same sentence:  "peepee" and "mommy's bed". 

First mistake:  Ok, so I panicked a bit.  I grabbed the quilt off my bed and some sheets from Hunter's bed from yesterday and threw them in the washing machine. 

Second mistake:  I generally try to do the laundry first thing in the morning so that it has plenty of time to dry.  It was already after 11 at this point.  It had been drizzling on and off all morning but it looked vaguely like the sun was going to burn off the clouds.  Well, the sun didn't come out.  Since then there has just been more drizzle.

The real kicker, was when I came in from the laundry room and tried to change Hunter's underwear only to find it bone dry.  Wait a minute...what happened?  I walked back through the previous events and realized that what Hunter thought was pee, was just water from my wet, post-shower hair.  Now I'm just hoping for sun tomorrow so I can dry our blanket and get it back on the bed.
