This morning I dropped my laundry off at my mom's. I'm not ashamed. My mom does my laundry. I no longer have a washer/dryer, so my mom does my laundry for me. I had a washer and dryer four months ago at my previous residence, but alas, we have parted ways. Aside from the dishwasher, those are the only things I miss about that place.
Anyway, after my mom had washed a couple of loads of laundry, she asks me, "Are you wiping up pee with your wash cloths?"
"No." I answered, absolutely disgusted that she would ask that and then I realized why she was asking me such a weird question. "Why? Do they smell like pee?"
"It's terrible, Wendy," she said as she scrunched up her face. "I had to re-wash an entire load." She held up a stack of folded wash cloths and said, "Here. Smell them."
"I don't want to." I said.
"Smell them and see if that's what it smells like." She handed the stack to me. I smelled them.
"Oh my God!" I handed them back to her. "Why would they smell like that?"
"I have no idea." She said as she walked to the garbage can. "I'm throwing them away."
"That doesn't make sense." I said thoughtfully. "How on this earth could that happen?" I was thinking very hard. "Did the rest of my clothes smell like pee? DO I SMELL LIKE PEE?"
"None of the other clothes smelled like that and I haven't smelled pee on you." She said.
"This is very weird." I said.
I still don't know what is the cause of the problem. I'm not peeing on the wash cloths and the baby doesn't go in there without me, so he's not peeing on stuff. I have no idea.
The only thing that is even feasible in this entire debacle of urine marinated wash cloths is this: some type of creature with a full bladder is making it's way into my home and urinating on my wash cloths.
Anyway, for those of you who have been to my home or should visit me, please let me know if my belongings, furniture, home, or self smells like pee. I would really appreciate it.
This is definitely the mystery of the century, but I'm hoping that I resolve the issues immediately. If anyone has any tips or clues in solving this case, please contact me.
