Pre-emptive Strike

Our old dishwasher- the one rusting- caked in calcium deposits-the one that was a dirty brown color(I wish I was kidding) has been replaced. YEP. As we were in Lowe’s picking up a ceiling fan and light for D’s big-boy room I went to the back where they put dinged up or last year’s models out at a drastically-reduced price. I found a BEAUTY. She is bold, beautiful and such a good quiet cleaner- all for hundreds less because it was a year old. WINNING. The only caveat is that it uses a different type of plumbing hook-up than our previous one so I ended up having our local handy-man come and put(what we thought was going to be easy) in our dishwasher. To the Husband’s credit- he hooked up the electrical by hand-there was not a plug in- AND he didn’t shock himself- AND it worked. Either way- we have a bright shining new star in our kitchen. One that which is neither an eye-sore nor 10 piece band thwacking away at our plates. : )
