Panties - III

This one is short but sweet.  It also requires a little set-up.

When you walk into our home, our foyer is open to the second floor.  There is a half wall upstairs so you can see from the loft/hallway down to the foyer.  During the holiday season we hang a large fake green wreath with a red bow on this half wall in the loft so it's hanging in the foyer area. We also have a large window above the front door so you can see the wreath from outside as well.

Often, when I'm doing a lot of laundry, I'll take my full baskets of dirty laundry and dump them over the wall.  It saves me a little bit of time and going up and down the stairs.  I dump the loads of laundry and then take all the baskets downstairs and load up the laundry again and head to the laundry room.

So it's the holiday season and my friend Michelle (W) stops by and quite honestly, I can't remember why but probably just a routine picking a kid up or dropping off or whatever.  We were standing in the foyer chatting and she said something along the lines of...'new decorating style?' and pointed up the the wreath.

Up go my eyes....and hanging off the Christmas wreath (yes, the one that can be viewed through the window by the general public) is a pair of my thong panties.  I'm happy to announce they were green and white stripped, so very festive.  And I stood there and tried to remember when I had last thrown down my dirty laundry.  And then I said a little prayer of thanks that it was Michelle who pointed it because if anyone can appreciate a good giggle, it's Michelle.

For the record, I no longer throw my laundry down.  I added it to the chore chart for the kids to carry downstairs.
