Out with the Old, In with the New ~Replacing our Washer and Dryer ~Saturday's Work ~Let's Talk About Some Football

What are those men doing in our house?

Our old appliances were very old...
we brought them with us from our old house.
(and we have lived here for 22 years)
The dryer heat settings were hot and hotter.

This was our old washer.
It did not effectively spin out all the rinse water anymore.
I usually had to run the spin cycle twice.

Remember last weekend, we ventured out in the cold to
purchase a new washer and dryer.
Langs delivered them on Thursday.

Step 1: Read the instruction book.
"You will be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow instructions"

Whaaat?

The instruction manual is boring reading material...

But necessary.
Just check out the control panel on this washing machine!


And the drum is huge.
I wish we would have had this washer when the girls lived at home.
They were on Swim Team and we were washing towels
all..the..time!


The see-through lid was appealing to me.
Watching the wash cycle is just about as exciting 

The new dryer has a 
rocketship type control panel, too.

...along with a very large drum.

There they are, side by side.

I still miss my mother's weekly phone call.
She would say, "I suppose you are doing Saturday's Work."
And most of the time, she was right.

Yesterday, was no different.
Hubby and I did Saturday's Work,
mastered the art of doing laundry 
with our new applicances,
and celebrated the day with a Black and Sam.
Cheers!

Let's end this with a little Football Chat.
In September, I posted about watching our
favorite NFL teams in hubby's new mancave.


and, of course,

They all play today for a chance to go to the Super Bowl.
We are heading to a Watch Party later this afternoon.
Sunday Funday

Take care,
