Dirty Laundry

You know how sometimes you don't realize how big of a blessing something is until it is taken away from you. I am realizing that right now. My brand new only used for a month wash machine turned into a fountain. Fun for the kids, not so fun for mom. I do on average 2-3 loads a day. They have to order a part that will not be in until a week from now. Luckily I was all caught up a week ago when it went out. Luckily we have a five year warranty. Luckily my mother and mother in-law have now become my official laundyers (I am aware this is my made up word). Maybe it is a blessing that it is broke?
