So Upset!!!

I'm so upset! So flipping upset! (As opposed to rollin' upset or walkin' upset...)
I washed Anna's clothes last night then put them in the dryer. Unbeknownst to me, Anna had stuck a red crayon in the sock of her WHITE tights. So... now a ton of her clothes have red stains that will not wash out ever! I had to throw away two pairs of tights and then a ton of her clothes have stains. I feel so... FURIOUS. I wanted to cry. We don't exactly have the money right now to run out and buy a new wardrobe for her. I'm so annoyed. I'm annoyed at myself for not checking her clothes properly. What was I thinking??? *argh*

Maybe going Christmas shopping will cheer me up? I hope so. I'm so mad right now. I try so hard to keep Anna's clothes stain free (I'm a little psycho about stains... I grew up with stains on everything!) So I'm really just... really, really MAD. Of course, I'm not mad at Anna. I'm mad at myself. Oh! *grits teeth* >.<

Rats! I'm sure every mother goes through this at some point. The good news: all those great day-after-Christmas sales! Cheer up! God provides. :)

Ugh. I know how you feel. I hate stains and am very anal about my boys clothes.

Once I washed something red and it somehow stayed in the washer. For months I would pull clothes out that had mysterious red on them....even with nothing red in the wash. I ran and ran the washer trying to clean it out and scrubbed it all out, but nothing ever worked. Only getting a new machine worked. It was so strange.

Have you tried Carbona? I never have, but I've heard it works well. They have one for crayon stains.
