I’m so totally tired of everything in this house that costs a lot to replace breaking down on us right now. This week my dishwasher decided to bite the dust…again. I say again because this thing has been fixed too many times to count.
A couple weeks ago it started making noises that sounded like a jet engine when I’d turn it to pots and pans mode. My logical way of thinking was well I just won’t use that setting, and maybe it’ll hold out a while longer. Everything was ok until tonight.
I loaded it, hit the buttons for normal wash and air dry, turned the knob, and let the thing go to work. About 30 minutes later I walked into the kitchen and realized it was eerily silent. Normally the dishwasher runs for an hour and is extremely loud. I called Hubby in to check it out, and he discovered a dead dishwasher full of water.
He said he’d call his friend who does appliance repair to fix it again, and I said don’t bother. We’ll let the water cool off, then I’ll scoop it out and hand wash everything. After I finish looking up Las Vegas hotels for the trip Hubby wants to take I’ll head to a few websites to check out prices. Maybe I can luck up on a decent dishwasher I can actually afford right now. If not I’ll do without for now, but I definitely want to replace it before the baby gets here. I don’t mind having to hand wash everything, but it sure is nice not having to.
