    Hi!

    Welcome to our Board, though I am sorry you need to be here!

    I am an American expat married to a Finn and living in Helsinki! I've been here 11 years, so if there is anything I can do for you, please feel free to ask.

  2. 3 happy clams??

    Recently married (26 July), I'm living with my DH and MIL. DH has been living with DM for about 6 years, at 42 it's beyond acceptable..circumstances..ahem.. not buying it. anyhoo.

    MIL washes laundry every day! Always a load in their special fragrance free detergent, then hung to dry in the bathroom because DH is allergic to pollen and insists his clothing must not be hung outside.

    Well I happened to wash my own personal laundry afterwards using regular detergent and fabric softener, then hung it outside on the balcony to dry. Then, I proceeded to wash a duvet cover in their special detergent along with 2 other of DH clothing. I hung the duvet out on the balcony to dry since I will be using it again, and DH 2 items I hung in the bathroom with the earlier wash his DM had done.

    This morning, I see his 2 items have been re-washed by MIL and are back hanging in the bathroom line as if somehow I got something wrong. No one asked me anything to verify if I'd mistakenly washed in the wrong detergent, etc. Just assumed that I'm too stupid to get anything that simple done correctly is pretty irksome.

    OMG ..How could I forget to mention that this happy little clam fest is operating in 45sqM. pray for me!
