And the washer has TOO MUCH water....
On Monday, we discovered that our washer wasn't working.... after having the dryer out of commission for a couple of weeks in Dec/Jan, I have discovered that I would much rather have the dryer broken than the washer. At least we could have clean clothes! We have a front-loading washer and it was filling up more than halfway with water and then shutting down. Ugh. It took a couple of days for Ben to get to looking at the washer and he was a little nervous about digging into it too. He said, "I don't know, washers are much more complicated than dryers." But I had confidence that he could fix it for us! Tonight, after pulling some parts out and some online research, he figured out what the problem is. YEA!! Now, we can pick up the part (a hose and a cheap one at that!) tomorrow and get it changed out. Hopefully, by this time tomorrow I can have a couple of the 5 loads of laundry that need to be done. Whew... another disaster averted.

I can totally relate to this. We went without a washer for no less than five weeks this summer. I'm so glad it seems to be a simple fix! Hooray for clean clothes!!
All fixed!!! WooHoo! I went to pick up the hose this morning and we got it changed out this afternoon. Only 5 days out of commission and laundry now working its way through. What do you think will go next?
I'm impressed that Ben fixed it himself. He rocks!
