Does my dryer have some type vortex in it or is something messing with me?
Ok so the first 2 times I went to look inside the dryer and didn’t see the rug, I thought to myself “I should take a picture because this is crazy” but I didn’t.
This happened last week, I like to clean my bathroom sometimes before I shower, so I wiped everything down and while cleaning up I put my 2 bathroom floor rugs in the washer. When there done in the wash I put them in the dryer. One is a fluffy purple rug and the other is a medium towel I put down over the purple rug to step on when I get out.
I hear the dryer timer go off and when I went to get the rugs out, it was only the green one. I’m like wtf. My brother was there so I thought well maybe he’s gonna take a shower and took the rug out for himself. So I ask him “ hey did you take out the purple rug” he says no. So I go back in the basement, open the dryer damn near stick my head inside the dryer and put my arm in to feel around, atp I’m thinking maybe it got stuck at the top or something. BUT NO! THATS when I thought to myself i should take a pic of the inside of the dryer because this is crazy wtf. But I don’t. I go look alll around the house thinking maybe I put it down somewhere ( I knew I didn’t but I had to look everywhere for the sake of my mental and you know where the heck did it go). Now my brothers helping me look but only place he didn’t look was the dryer ( just for context)
I checked that dryer atleast 7 times. About 20 min later I’m going up and down looking everywhere, I look in the dryer and the door is wide open with the purple rug just sitting right there in the flipping dryer 😳. No one was playing a trick on me and my brother had been upstairs the entire time. I get really emotional when I think about now because wtf, first thing I thought was does my dryer have a vortex inside of it or is something messing with me. Because I KNOW THAT PURPLE RUG WAS NOT IN THAT DRYER FOR ABOUT 20-30 min and then it just popped back in there. Idk but yea I can’t stop thinking about and I’m someone that does a load of laundry atleast once every two days I can’t stop thinking about it.
Has anyone ever had this happen before?
