Connie, it sounds like the same washing-machine fail I had last year. I totally forgot about that until you said "transmission." When mine went, there was a LOT of noise all the time. It was an Amana washer and apparently there is a history of that problem with those machines.

Wasted $20 today going to the doctor with what I considered clear-cut flu symptoms. I was FINE this morning but midmorning I suddenly was nauseous, then the fever, chills and body aches hit. Of course DH is out of town until tomorrow night....Fortunately my Big Kids made dinner. I said they could do French toast or spaghetti; they chose to make a couple of boxes of mac & cheese and call it a night. I had crackers. DD cooked so Big DS has to clean it up, which he is putting off. Tomorrow morning if I still feel bad, the Big Kids will be making the lunches since I don't want to handle anyone's food. Anyway, the doctor says I have a "virus" so no miracle drug for me. This is the first time, other than the doctor visit, that I've been off the couch in 9 hours. I'm going to bed as soon as I pack Luke off to bed.
