Washing machine broken!

2020-06-16-18-51-27

The panel that lights up on our washing machine is not working. It’s just not lighting, so the touch activated panel won’t work. I can’t programme it. The dial next to it is beeping so it’s clear it is on, it’s so annoying. I wanted to get a wash done.. Nothing. So what do I do? I’m trying to get someone to come out. I don’t want to replace it. It’s a good machine. Replacing is expensive and wastes resources. Fixing saves money and you don’t have to throw the thing away. The problem is the lock down, but as non essential shops have opened we might be able to do something.

Fingers crossed…

Cracked sink

Oops! When you can’t get replacement, the last thing you want to do is break your bathroom sink. I was too vigorous with the feather (nylon actually) duster. I swiped at a cobweb and knocked a heavy glass bottle off the bathroom cabinet and into the sink!

Result, big star shaped crack! Grr. So a bit of spring cleaning leads to disaster…..

Friday the thirteenth

I would post a photo of my beautiful yellow glass bowl with blue conch shaped feet. But the cat jumped up on the window ledge at 6 o’clock this morning and knocked it off – smash! So I was sweeping up bits of glass and pottery from a ceramic cat that was also there.

This was after my hubby woke me up at 4 am because he couldn’t sleep. Then I went back to bed but he was cooking some breakfast so he kept crashing about in the kitchen. I finally got back to sleep about 9am, then woke up at 11am. Did I say I hadn’t  gone to bed till 2am.

So, Friday the thirteenth? What else can happen?
