Laundry Woes

This post could also be called "I Hate Top Loaders!!"

Having a large family we do our fair share of laundry in a day. I have had people tell me that we do more laundry in a day then they do in a week. So, you can imagine the amount of work that our washer and dryer have to do. :D

Normally we don't have any problems with our dryers. As long as we keep them clean they are steady machines and work almost nonstop with no problems at all.

Now our washers are a totally different story, or used to be. It used to be that we would have the one main working washer and then two backups (yes, two!). Whenever the main washer went down, we would pull it out, put in a replacement and wait for Sears to come out and repair the main washer. When the backup would break it would be off on its way to scrap land, due to the fact that we were normally the third owner of it and it had seen better days. :D

Over two years ago we got a new washer, because our old one had died and with our warranty Sears had to replace it. We got the top of the line as good as it gets and as large as it gets front loader. It seemed at the time that we were always calling out sears to fix something on our old front loader and we thought that the same thing would happen with this, but at least we would get on top of laundry while it was working.

Well, not with this one! With over two years of owning it, this Friday will be the first time Sears has had to come out and work on it. Now, we have had minor problems with it, but nothing that Linnea or any one of us other girls could not fix. We are counting our blessings that way at least. :D

But as we wait for Friday to come around I sit here trying my best to stay on top of laundry with a top loader that holds less than half the load of my front loader and wounding what we ever did before we got the top loader! I can't wait until it's fixed and hopefully I will be able to stay caught up!

But, just to let you know---I HATE top loading washing machines and I CAN'T wait until our front loader is fixed!! lol
