In the fall/winter, I have to hang my clothes indoors (there's enough space in the basement for some clothesracks) and they dry much slower, but that's okay. I never really thought about the fact that I'm helping the environment, my clothes and the electric bill by air drying, so now I feel like I'm really smart or something, hahaha!

Glad you agree with the over washing! Good to hear there are some other sane people out there. Yes, the gentle cycle is my best friend! It automatically uses cold water which is gentler on clothes and doesn't use up the hot water, which spikes up the electric bill. It has also saved my clothes. I used to wonder why my shirts kept getting holes! Unless I hike through mud, I doubt my clothes need to be scrubbed vigorously in hot water… haha. Thanks for commenting!

I rotate my jeans as well. I actually only own three pair, which is plenty unless it's a really hot day out (in which I'm likely wearing a skirt) or I spill something on them. It's easier to get away with here in dry LA over humid Orlando. Especially living where you are, people don't need to constantly wash because the clothes just aren't getting dirty! I don't understand that women who had like 30 pairs of jeans. Nobody can tell the difference with jeans unless you have one that really stands out!

I like that you don't use the dryer. It's better for the environment, your clothes, and the electric bill. My family that still lives in Germany and Puerto Rico don't use dryers either. It's very common to see clotheslines there. Here in America it's quite uncommon unless it's in a poor neighborhood. A dryer is seen as more of a necessary item rather than a luxury. I think we've been that way with dishwashers as well. It's kind of weird to think we don't truly need those things. I'd love to hang my clothes to try because of the cost, but I don't even have a patio… Which makes it difficult. haha
