EDIT: I've received enough help to get a washing machine now and will have it on Tuesday. Thanks for the suggestions though.

I'm not having much luck with my mutual aid request for a new washing machine. I'm finding it impossible to wash my clothes by hand. I have very little use of my left arm, as well as issues with my hands. I'm finding i just can't wring the clothes out by hand, which means i can't get the laundry disinfectant I have to use, out properly. They're being left itchy and smelly. Does anyone have any good tips on dealing with this?

Yeah, I have a tiny kitchen, so I don't really bake at all, I don't have the room, I did have a rolling pin at one point though, I just can't remember where it went. I don't think I've got scurvy, but my dentist did recommend I have less lemon since the acid is bad for your teeth, so...maybe?

And it's actually a weird coincidence that I have a bottle of wine at all, I don't normally drink wine, but I was making a recipe earlier this week that needed wine in it, otherwise I don't think I would've had a replacement at all. Barely used it in the recipe (it asked for a full bottle, which would've tasted awful), so I'm glad I found a use for it beyond that.
