Well, I knew it was going to happen but that does not mean I was happy about. When I got home from work today Melinda said I have bad news, “The washer finally died”. We were having problems with it all weekend, so I was not surprised it had finally given up the ghost.
We wash at least a load a day and on the weekends we wash ten or more loads. The good news is that we have talked about getting a front loading washer and dryer for some time. The bad news is I had not planned on doing it today or before our trip to Canada. I got in the van and went to Temple to get a new washer knowing if I found I a good deal I would get a new dryer also.
I went to several stores and ended up getting a floor unit from Home Depot. They had a sale on washer/dryer combos so adding that to fact they were floor units I ended up getting the pair for almost a grand below list. I was exsited to say the least. Now I have to read the manuals which I had to find online since they were missing from the floor units. We will see how we like the front loading washing. We have always been told it saves money on water. The way we wash we will soon see.
