Attack of the Mold!

So, we’ve been battling the mold a little every day now. It was sunny yesterday, but only for a few hours. It rains a LOT here, in case you couldn’t tell. I’m living in the most humidity I ever even imagined! It’s like it’s about to rain ALL THE TIME!

So, here’s the latest bout.

Don’t worry, it brushes right off, but it’s still gross. And don’t worry, I’m not a ridiculous packer – I have to look nice (business casual-ish) in order to fly standby and (hopefully) sit in first class. But because I certainly don’t need these shoes, they’ve sat in one place and sprouted.

Another casualty was my pair of jeans.

I sent these to the laundry and they came back renewed. But now I’m checking everything daily because there’s a few things that just sit on the shelf (like jeans) or hang (like my black coat – it is winter after all!) that are at risk.

We all wish it would just be sunny! I’m a little surprised mold isn’t growing in my hair because it’s always damp. Oh well. Just a byproduct of getting to live in this BEAUTIFUL forest!
