The way we wash our clothes just changed
I always think of a firearm when someone says "front-loader", but in this case we're speaking of washing machines. Our heavy-duty Kenmore washer began to give up the ghost a couple of weeks ago and we had to make the decision whether to have it serviced or to replace it. It's been here since about 1995 and it's been a real workhorse of an appliance. So, when we finally decided to go a bit greener and replace it with something more energy-efficient and that uses a lot less water to clean clothes, we went back and bought another Kenmore washer. Actually, we're replacing the washer-dryer set. Delivery is this afternoon and they'll take the old ones away for recycling.
The funny thing is that my spouse only really began to learn to operate the old washer a few months ago. Now he'll have a brand new gadget to play with, so maybe I'll stand back and let him practice on the new toy with the laundry that's been stacking up the last few days.
