When you least expect it, something is going to break.  And, my favorite hobby of letting the dishes pile up for days was certainly enhanced by the death of our dishwasher.  My husband made a real cruel attempt to repair it.  When that failed, he resorted to hot wiring it.  Now really, how do you feel about electrical wires being exposed and water?  YIKES!  That man…!

Since I am not a fan of the idea myself, I went on a binge looking for shopping deals.  Honestly, how much can a new dishwasher cost?  Wait, forget I asked that.  Our last big purchase entailed ours of online work.  The kind of work that most people like, shopping.  But, if you compare shopping prices often enough…well then…you know, the fun quickly drains right out of it.

Anyway, our last purchase came only after hours of browsing through stores online and in person.  We were looking at freezers at an obnoxious rate and I don’t even like to cook, never mind worry about freezing things.  But, alas, my sweet husband convinced me that we need a freezer and I caved.  And that…that was right before the ol’ crash of the dishwasher….ugh!

Yes, indeed, that’s the way of the world . Spend your money one thing frivilous and before you turn around good, something that you consider to be a necessity (because really ya’ll, a dishwasher versus a freezer, let’s get our priorities straight…this girl hates to wash dishes) will break.  And, as I’ve already pointed out, my husband’s way of repairing appliances often involves danger.

Danger?  No thanks, I’ guess I’ll just keep washing dishes, or maybe he can?
