A Laundromat's Mistake

When you use cloth diapers.
You are out of town.
And you are getting low on clean ones . . .
What to do!?

I feel guilty buying disposables.
Even though we've done that some in the past for traveling.

So you hit a laundry mat or a laundromat.
Especially when you pass right by one on your way back home--you know it's meant to be.

You ponder why you've never really heard the term laundromat before.

You've heard "laundry mat" more often than not, when a person talks about a self service laundry facility.
Well, at least in my neck of the woods. 

According to Yahoo Answers
"It comes from the 1950's where anything "automatic" was good, so it was the "automatic laundry" (though you put them in the machines, they were better than the old washboard and mangle setup!) So it was the Laundr-omatic, which became Laundromat."

Of course, it was fun to look up on Wikipedia too--to see its history. 

Anyhow, I began this post to show you why Dan had to run back in the laundromat with my camera . . .

Laundromat Typo

Ok, so maybe this a simple typo, looks to be. 
But seriously, you laminate this, and place it on a wall of your business!? 
Wow.
