I know you have all been waiting with baited breath to hear if I got a new washing machine or not. Well, you can sit back in your seat now, because it was delivered yesterday day before yesterday.
It washes clothes. This is very good.
It spins them very very quickly when they're clean, so they get very dry even before going in to the dryer. It's a Whirlpool top-loader, with the new-style non-agitator washing mechanism.
And before it came over to be installed, A. ripped out the moldy moulding and wet drywall and cracked toe-board and pulled up the torn vinyl flooring and replaced it. It looks fantastic, except for the completely unnecessary GIANT RIP in the middle of the new floor. No, it shouldn't have torn. No, it wasn't torn on purpose or through negligence. It was torn apparently because of some manufacturing defect or something. Poo. It'll get replaced.
On to the bathroom (again) - must wall in around the shower surround, start working on shelves, buy and install a sink, replace 99% of the moulding...
And then we need to replace the door, knob, and frame to Nate's room, since he locked himself into his room while mostly asleep and couldn't get out, and A. had to break in to the room with much force.
But hey, I bought myself a table saw! So now I get to make shelves and benches and mitred cuts and stuff. Yay!
