decided to clean the curtains....

So today I got in a cleaning mood, every so often it happens, and I just go with it.  Well, today amoung other things I decided to clean the curtains in my parents room.  I also cleaned the walls.  They were some simple curtains my father (that's right, my FATHER) made out of a sheet, and it looked very good.  Well, they haven't been cleaned since they were put up, like 20+ years ago.  They looked in good shape to me, nothing like the living room that is falling apart.  Well, I put them in the washer and dryer.  And now, ah, they look like this.

I think I owe my parents a new set of curtains.  Good thing they are simple to do.
