Cheryl, if I lived closer to scratch and dent I would have been there. I think the closest one is five hours away. I simply can not imagine washing 16 to 18 pair of jeans in one load. That is all the jeans we wear in one week. Any money we save on the water bill will go to the cost of the washer too. Dh I talked a bit before he had to leave and he is on board with the bugeting.

Also did the taxes. We owe on fedral but get a tiny bit back from state. Dh is upset but I will take it. It could have been much worse. I will say this, if your husband need surgery and will be off work (dh was off for six months) even if your company has disability insurance, go to work. I should have. Dh
