I think our house has a curse when it comes to dishwashers. It seems like we can never keep one going for longer than a couple of years and then it just goes kaplooie. This time one of the hoses sprung a leak and the water just came gushing out. Mitch tried to fix it by pulling it out and looking but it took Andrew to get it all pulled apart and to see what the issue was beside the hole in the drain tube. The whole under pipes are clogged with a gray looking sludge. Makes you think— wow that was how our dishes were getting clean. So now we have to find some old discontinued parts or get a new dishwasher.
About the same time the water-bed that we used sprang a leak. It is next to impossible to get a new water-bed these days. So time to get a new bed also. All i can say about that is: Why are bed salespeople so creepy? why?
We are thinking after trying out so many beds that we want the one that has coils under a layer of the foam that is like that foam used in the temperpedic beds.
And also we have put off buying a couch for a year or so. Annie when she was less than a year old got left alone for a while and found a loose string in the couch and took after it. Foam was everywhere. I re-stuffed and sewed it back together but it is falling apart. So new couch here we come.
