Wow, I made a whole nine dollars at the consignment shop.  It seems that a few of the scarves I left there sold.  That’s great because right now every penny counts.  I looked at washers today.  Holey moley, there are too many choices out there and none of them is cheap.  I seriously thought about a front loader until I began to think of how many times I’d have to bend on a laundry day moving clothes from the washer to the dryer.  My back might not love me after that.  I’m going for a top loader.

       I even went over to get a good look at G’s new washer.  Hers is a top loader like one of the two I’ve narrowed my choices down to after shopping.  She loves it.  She ran hers to show me how quiet it is and how the machine sits like a rock on the spin cycle.  My water pipes will be happier.  The old washer used to rattle them something awful on the spin cycle.

     Tomorrow I will buy the one that I think suits us the best.  It’s almost identical to G’s but has a slightly larger capacity tub.
