Looky -- I got a new Washing Machine!!!


Well, I will be the machine, but my new washboard is perfect for doing some wash at my trailer. With Winston having accidents during his convalescing, I can use this and the metal bucket (just like in the photo -- I had one and found it after the hurricane) to clean the towels in his box.

I bought the cooper washboard, just like the one in the photo. The guy at the hardware store said it will last me. I figured I should go for the super duper model, Lord knows how long I will be living in my FEMAnsion.

:hi:

26. Yep, I get your voice mail so often, I could recite your message
complete with that yankee accent. ;-)

Hope you get all you need to get done by C.O.B. - you have been blowing and going and I so want to know about the presentation.

Why haven't you sent me a copy??? :freak:

27. The presentation went well. I got lots of positive feedback.
But, then I turned around and uncovered a STUPID mistake I made back in May. It's fixable, but it's why I have been a bit out of touch.

Ane FTR - I do NOT have a Yankee accent. x(

20. Coffeenap - that is sweet of you to offer.
:hug: I haven't given up the search locally for one -- the old hardware shop that I bought the washboard at gave me a few contacts.

How have you been doing? I haven't seen you in a while. :hug: :loveya:

23. He is perfect!
Maybe I should look into getting one of those. Does he take up much space? Remember, I am in a trailer and space is an issue.

:hi: :rofl:
