Retrieval methods attempted:

And finally, leg dangled into abyss behind washer with toes used as pincers. Success!
Amount of time elapsed during this exercise:
20 minutes (which I will never get back)
Items still remaining behind washer which will undoubtedly remain there until the day we move:
2 owner's manuals
1 dryer sheet
1 fabric softener bottle lid
3 dust bunnies, which I'm sure will rapidly reproduce, as bunnies will tend to do
Try a vacuum cleaner...or a neighbor. Sometimes 2 heads are better than one.
ReplyDeleteAnd....it only took 20 minutes? What else would you have done? It's not like you have anything else to do!
Melissa, you crack me up!
ReplyDeleteThere are too many lost things behind ours to count. Bart finally got out the vacuum with the long hose and cleaned out our vent back there. He thought all of the dust balls were a big fire hazard. And our house is only a few years old! gross
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! That is way too funny!
