AIBU not to rewash laundry after it gets rained on?

I don't bother rewashing laundry that's got caught in the rain and then dried again.... Life's too short... Yes I'm lazy.

I haven’t rewashed washing that got a bit wet, it’s rain! But I’ve washed washing that got forgot about for a couple of rainy days while we were away once, it was very soggy and also on the floor (we have an airer rather than a washing line which I put down the side of the house, I didn’t want a washing line ruining the view of my garden but it meant we forgot about it before we left 😂).

I'm lazy too because I never have. Just look on it as an Extra rinse. I may have spun them if they were wringing wet.
Sorry just seen if they've dried again, job done as far as I'm concerned.

Once it’s rained on it’s out there until it dries, as far as I’m concerned. Might be different if I lived in a town where the rain might not be as clean as here.
