I need a laundry shelf!!

So I have been doing laundry all day... I was almost done, basically a bunch of white stuff and a few colored things left. I have my laundry in piles on the floor and go downstairs to throw new stuff in whenever I hear my washer beep at me (every few hours...) Sooooo.... here I am in my recliner (hubby has CQ, so lay claim to it tonight) and my oldest son asks me if I smell bleach.

Yes, I do... how strange...

I hear my washer beep... I go downstairs... the smell gets stronger...

Hmmm... odd....

I open my laundry room door...

OMFG MY EYES!!!!!

The smell and bleach fumes about killed me! Evidently the bleach bottle fell off of the washer mid spin at some point and the cap popped off... all over my clothes! Thank GOD they were almost all whites, I just had to throw away one hoodie and one thermal shirt. All of the bleach soaked whites went straight to the washer, and wow were they WARM!!

So yeah... I need a laundry shelf.

Wow! Thank goodness it wasn't a pile of colors! That would have been a huge disaster! I'm sorry you ended up with a huge mess though! I had my own bleach accident a couple weeks ago. Nothing like yours, but DH ended up with a new work shirt because I accidentally dripped bleach on the old one when I was doing the whites! lol We have one of those wire carts to hold all of our laundry soap and stuff in.

I am thinking this would be a good idea... and SOON!!! LOL, my eyes still burn!

Oh man, is it caught up in your lungs too? I know when ever I am near a bunch of bleach the smell tends to feel like it is caught up in my lungs and I smell bleach for a little while after.

Wow... I'm laughing, it's not funny but it is! That sucks! I had a bottle of laundry soap do that at my house in the states, liked to never get the soap out from under the washer/dryer and deep freezer, yeah it was one of them huge bottles and it completely emptied... now all cleaning products remain on the floor or very low shelf!
