So, we were having some problems with our dryer not drying properly. Since the machine is only 2 years old, I figured that it was probably the dryer vents that needed a little cleaning. We called our landlords to see when the last time the vents had been cleaned but they have been very unresponsive lately. So we took it upon ourselves. The space was very small so we had to get creative on getting the dryer out. I then climbed back there (because Chris was still on doctor's orders to take it easy) and found a whole bunch of clogged lint up the vent. Now the dryer drys like a dream! Little Fact: Clogged dryer vents are a fire hazard so they need to be checked at least once a year. We were lucky nothing happened!
Chris being the patient husband and helping to get the dryer back into the space. We had to improvise quite a bit!

Ha ha! That is good to know! I need to do ALOT of work on our laundry room! But one step at a time, however that is pretty freaky about the fire hazard thing :)
DId you also know that Dryer sheets can create a FILM on the lint catcher thing, and actually over time, make it so that air wont go through and the screen will actually hold water. :)
We tried it, and it didn't hold as much water as we were hoping. BUt oh well, that isn't a good thing anyway so I guess we should be happy about that. :)
Have a good day! Sorry for such a Long comment...:S
