A few years ago, we were struggling to get out of debt. We did without anything we could, which included new clothes unless it was absolutely necessary. It would make me depressed to check the lint trap after a dryer load, because you would need a microscope to find any lint there. It came to be so rare that I noticed it; dryer lint made me feel my family was taken care of, provided for, safe.
So you might feel prosperous and protected by the numbers in your bank account. I would agree, those are nice when you have them. But in the daily grind, I have come to enjoy dryer lint. We found a big sale last night, almost by accident, so I'm rolling in it today!

wow, kim - i never noticed that before! :)
I should probably point out that synthetic fibers leave less lint in general. But if you have mostly cotton, like us, it really shows up. Likely more info from my fiber geek brain than anyone wanted, but there it is.
So, for your birthday, Ima gonna send you great riches ... a big ol' bag o'lint. Heh.
Cool post, Kim. I love how you think.
