Wardrobe Wednesday

Can you tell what's broken at our house, again?
 The girls and I took 2 big baskets stuffed with dirty clothes to a laundry mat yesterday.  I'm sure this is the closest Binny will ever get to the front loader I've been dreaming of since my last washing machine bit the dust.  I'm shopping craigslist for now.

she is so cute. Hope you get a new drier soon.

My WW is up too.

You don't get top loaders in the UK only front loaders. When we bought new ones for the house in the States we bought front loaders too. I wouldn't know what to do with any other kind really. :D

Hey, if you put one of my daughters there, it would look like my laundrymat. Our washer is at least 12 years old. I don't know how many times D has taken the thing apart. We actually have pictures of it.
I have to admit though, sometimes I've let the laundry pile up so high, that we actually go to the laundrymat because we can use those 5 load washers and driers instead of doing 2 days of laundry. Sad, huh?
Good luck finding something, maybe there's a front loader for a reasonable price out there. We don't have one either. It's a dream of mine.

Son of a b*tch, it's always something isn't it?! Craiglist can be awesome for deals. We still have our $200 riding mower and it's going strong. By contrast, our new dryer already had an issue requiring a repair within a year!

CL is great for stuff like that. Good luck!

I hope you get something totally awesome. I have dreams of an HE front loader. Huh...not sure what happened. I used to have better dreams than that. :-/

Well, when I saw the picture in the thumbnail, I didn't realize it was a laundromat. I thought, I'm jealous, she's got a front loader. Someday *sigh*

@Homschlr4ever - I can beat that. My mom bought our washer and dryer set when Eldest was on the way...She turns 23 in June...and they've been taken apart more than once.

Turns out our washer is super easy to fix (boo!) and while I was at work last night, the Gardener ordered the part and plans to fix it himself. I was so hoping for a new front loader washer (even if I was limited to craigslist) but I guess that will remain a dream...

@True Blue, 23 years is quite impressive! Perhaps your washing machine and mine need to have a chat.

Just read your update that it is fixed. Sorry you didn't get a new one but a fixed one sure beats the laundromat!
