Today was a slow day at the house. Other than spending $86.83 on light bulbs (and we aren’t finished with the light bulbs yet) nothing much happened. So I thought I would digress a bit and show you this:
That is the dishwasher that has been inflicted upon us in the Fallapartment. It is an “apartment size” dishwasher, which I suppose is verbally justified since we are living in an apartment, but when you consider that this apartment has three bedrooms and four people living in it, the device comes up short. This is the worst dishwasher ever invented. There is nothing in the top basket to keep the glasses from slipping sideways, so the mortality rate of our glassware is huge (we want to get new glassware anyway, so we keep using it). In the bottom basket, the flatware box sits half way in the middle, leaving a large part of the basket useless. Only half the dishes that we use for a meal will fit in the thing, so we spend a lot of time standing at the “sink-that-won’t-drain” anyway.
Oh, and see that white stuff on the door? That is the soap. We have to just sort of huck some soap into it to get it to wash because the doors on the soap dispenser no longer open, and when we run it with the soap in the box, we end up with dirty dishes and a soap brick in the hole. So we just toss some soap into it, close the door, and hope.
And don’t even get me started on the “new stove”.
Well, I told you it was a slow day. Keep hoping that something exciting will happen at the house so you won’t have to suffer through any more posts like this one. At least it follows the 15 second rule…. if you read fast.
