Who needs cable TV?


Ya know how there is never a convenient time to have a major medical, financial, emotional thing happen in your life? Well we discovered that right before Christmas isn't a great time for your washer to die. However there is a bright side to it all. Jon, Spencer, and I went shopping for a new washer the other night and we had intended on purchasing el-cheapo top loader. Unlucky or lucky depending on how you look at it, the sales guy at Home Depot knew a lot about front loading washers and basically we were talked into getting el-cheapo front loader. You know it will "pay" for itself in energy savings over it's life. Personally I would prefer it just right me check right now, but what can you do. Little did we know how much entertainment value a front load washer has. I think now we will just get rid of the TV and watch the clothes wash from now on. The savings are just racking themselves up!!!! The kids got a kick out of it while eating breakfast today. To bad they had to go to school and like learn or something and not stay home to watch the clothes wash. Hmmmm, life is full of tough choices :)

SWEET! I say getting rid of DISH or Cable or whatever should be part of it's advertised value! I love those dang washers and dryers - I guess I will have to bring my laundry over to you. What do you say - chocolate and a good load of laundry?

You never know what will entertain your kids. All I have to say is it's probably alot "cleaner" than TV. Ha! Ha! Have a Merry Christmas!

How funny! We will add that to our reasons that we need to come to Idaho - to watch the Grant Group's clothes wash :)
