Next comes again

September 10th, 2006 at 09:49 pm

My DH went to Promise Keepers this weekend along with a group from church. It was a wonderful experience for him but not so great for me. In addition to the somethings missing feeling I always get when we are apart, I discovered tha tour dryer (in which I was doing all the vacation laundry) no longer blew hot air and it takes alot of starts to dry clothes with cold air. So we spent a couple hours at the laundrymat today to catch up. I plan on washing everyday and line drying everything until we move somewhere. Washers cost 1.75 at the laundry mat and don't hold alot. Dryers are 25 cents for 8 1/2 minutes. It was a great lesson on electricity costs money for our DS but a horror for me. I spent 6.75 on three loads. At least pour electric bill will go down, we needed coats today so no more AC and no more dryer. In fact I am going to offer it at the garage sale were having at the end of the month as a fixer upper.
I am learning that God is soverign even when things go better for others than they do for us. As long as he's in charge I'm content to take wha the allows into our lives.

    Sorry to hear that Nanamom!! Ours was doing similar only taking about 40 minutes to dry what should of only taken 20 minutes. The Hubster says that inside there are 2 coil type doo-hickey-ma-bobs that put out the heat and that likely one of ours had burnt out. Supposedly they can be replaced but I don't know at what cost or if your husband is at all handy that way. Fortunately for us none of the other siblings wanted the one in F-I-L's estate so we got it. It's equally as old as ours (maybe 20 years or so) but his still works! At least we got a short reprieve before we have to buy a new one - which we are budgeting and saving for!

    I wish you lived closer - cuz then you could have my old one that at least works 'some' if not perfectly. Think ours is going to the curb w/a free sign on it. For the number of uses we get out of them at home they don't cost THAT much, but still more than we want to have to come up with, eh?
