It was a week ago Monday night that our dog opened our bedroom door and crawled under the bed. The next morning both kids said that they had smelled smoke when they had gotten up during the night to go to the bathroom. Now, I can understand the dog not saying anything, but the kids? Really? If you smell smoke - wake your FATHER! IMMEDIATELY!!!
Sam discovered it was the dishwasher so I called the repairman. He could be out the following Monday. After SEVEN long days of doing dishes by hand, the repair company called back - could we reschedule? There were furnaces that needed to be repaired, especially with the temperatures below freezing . . . so knowing that a dishwasher was a luxury NOT a necessity, I rescheduled for two days later on Wednesday.
Mark came out yesterday and told us we were a very fortunate family. Our panel had fried - to crispy and we were lucky we lost nothing more than the dishwasher. Which reminds me - kids? If you ever smell smoke - wake your FATHER! IMMEDIATELY!
The new dishwasher should be here no later than next Tuesday . . . Did I mention Sam's brother and his family will be here on Saturday - the one with ten kids? I'll just keep saying "a dishwasher is a luxury NOT a necessity" and go buy paper!
