When our washer and dryer decided to break down simultaneously, and we discovered that they are basically computers that happen to wash clothes, and that getting them fixed would involve more computer-type repair than mechanical repair, we blew a gasket. Well, I blew a gasket and ran out the door and headed for work while yelling something to Celeste along the lines of, “If you have the chance today just go to the store and get a new (insert favorite cuss word here) washer-dryer set. I don’t care what it is I just want it to work!”
That was Monday morning. Monday afternoon Celeste sent me a text saying she’d purchased our new washer and dryer. She also said she’d picked colors that made a “(Insert favorite curse word here) you, I don’t care if they go out of style” statement.
I love that woman.

They are niiiice. And I married well.
I’d like a Corvette that color if this monitor ain’t fooling me.
We replaced ours recently, as well. I’m so thankful for a husband that wanted to do the research and the purchasing. He also didn’t bat an eye when I suggested we paint the laundry room before the new set arrived – the next day.
Pretty fortunate, aren’t we?
To Jon and Celeste, Two of my favorite people I have never met, I love the color…ROLL TIDE!

At this point I’d take ANY car in that color, or any color for that matter.
Obviously your husband was much more thoughtful than I was! It really wasn’t fair for me to lay this all on Celeste, but boy she did a great job. You’re right: we’re very fortunate.
Thanks Dwight. Don’t hold it against us but we’re getting ready to spend some quality time with Auburn alums. You really can’t pick your family can you:)
We got new ones last year from Sears — wanted black, but it was $200 more for the set. But they were out of white so gave us black for the price of white. WIN! Biggest diff: new washer holds roughly 2.25x what old washer held, with time devoted to laundry reduced somewhat proportionately (no effect on folding time, obviously).
Folding?
We got what look like exactly the same model, just in white. Working good so far.
Glad to hear it. If we end up with another set of lemons I think we
might go old school and make the kids do our laundry with a washboard.
Makes you wonder if the truly best ones are the stripped down, no frill, no computer board varieties. You know, spin the knob and get the hell out of there. Close the door so nobody sees the color.
In order to purpose concerning trust, and provide any reasoned (and reason-responsive) security regarding trust as a possible added sounding opinion worthy of specific thought, Now i’m desperate to enjoy. My partner and i undoubtedly offer the particular lifestyle with the sensation regarding trust; just what I must notice can be a reasoned soil when planning on taking trust significantly as an easy way to getting for the fact, rather than, point out, merely as an easy way folks ease and comfort by themselves and also the other person (a worthwhile operate that we carry out acquire seriously). Yet you must not assume myself to be able to go with the protection regarding trust being a way to fact when with virtually any level an individual interest ab muscles dispensation you might be apparently wanting to rationalize. Prior to deciding to interest trust any time purpose provides an individual guaranteed in to a nook, think of whether or not an individual genuinely wish to get away from purpose any time purpose will be working for you.
