LG washer not working

Our LG Front Loading Washer just seemed to up and die the other week. (It was dead as a door nail. Dead in the water. No lights, no sounds. Quiet.) I am very frustrated with it. We were able to get a repair person out and he didn’t know what was wrong precisely, one of several boards.

Time went on. We went out-of-town. They still didn’t know what it was, we found out when we got back. We called them again this past Monday. They think they know the right part, and have ordered it and the earliest it could be installed was today. DH is out of town, I don’t have people in when he’s not here. So the repair is scheduled for tomorrow.

We shall see if I can do laundry in the house again, or not.

We’ve been to the laundromat too many times. That’s a whole different story I don’t wish to get further into, suffice it to say, I can’t stand the smell clothing picks up from the laundromat washers, using our own smell-less detergent.

As my dear eldest son said “It smells like other people’s clothes.”

Ick. Just perfumy. Icky other detergent stuff. Not every load was as bad, but it isn’t possible to figure it out and have non-perfumed clothing entirely from there. I’ll be very ecstatic if my washer will wash again!

Water Utilities

City water utilities. Ugh. Know what ours has done lately? Quit sending out “Disconnect” notices as of May 1st. Is this a problem? Sure. Sometimes people forget, to pay the bill. Right?

More money in the bank for them. A courteous service done away with.

Maybe there is a large problem with other people continually not paying their bills before the next cycle hits. I don’t know the thinking behind it, just that I know exactly what happened here yesterday. I went to the bathroom, flushed the toilet, and it was dead, didn’t refill the tank. No water in the lines all of the sudden.

DH out of town. I called him and couldn’t get hold of him. I finally talked to him. No, he forgot, due to many things. Sigh.

I had no clue ahead of time. I could have headed it off if the colored piece of paper postcard warning of soon to be disconnection had come in the mail. I never saw one. I didn’t know about the May 1st change.The left hand doesn’t know what the right hand is doing. This gets people into trouble. :rolleyes:

Baby Q Turns One

Well, Baby Q turned One Year Old on the 23rd of June. I forgot to post anything about it. I do suppose it was because I was busy with the birthday, then busy getting ready to go out-of-town right after.

Baby Q is growing up, not as much a baby, closer to a toddler now. I still BF him, he’s eating more food now though too. So poopy diapers are oh so much more different of late. :rolleyes:

Q is talking a lot now. Sure, only WE can understand what he says, but he says so much. Like a few days ago, he was being cute, running away from something, brother or something he was doing, and he fell down, and as he did that he looked up at me and his Daddy and said, “I fell down!”

One present we got him for his birthday is a Leap Frog musical table called the Learn & Groove Musical Table. It’s pretty cool, and he loves it. He makes things happen and stands there sort of bounce-sway dancing to the music. It’s a nice busy/learning toy that isn’t annoying to parents and siblings at all. We all love to play with him with it.
