Yesterday those pretty things  were calling to me. They were saying touch us, use us…we are here for you! The plumber had not shown up to take care of the tree root problem yet and I just knew if I used them that water would flood the laundry room.

A HA!  I’ll use the diaper pail to drain it!  So I did!  I washed my first load in my new Frigidaire Affinity Front Loading Washer and dried them up in my new Frigidaire Affinity Front Loading Dryer.

I seriously thought the diaper pail was big enough to hold all the water.  J brought me the mop bucket just in time….we almost had an overflow of the diaper pail(large garbage can)!

These machines are so quiet! I can not believe how quiet!  J was asking me if they were even running yet.  Wow!  When I pulled the clothes from the washer to put them in the dryer they were so much lighter than from the old washer.  There was so much more water spun out in the spin cycle.

They sure are pretty, I could not wait any longer!

My brand spankin’ new Affinity Front Loading Washer and Dryers from Frigidaire are HERE.  They are right around the corner.  Sitting in my laundry room looking all pretty and stuff!

But ya know…I can’t use them today and that really bites! I have to wait for a plumber to come get the tree roots out of our pipes.  The washer drained so fast when they were testing it that the water went out and all over the floor.  No fault of the washers though…it’s just we live in a house from the 50′s and in a neighborhood with tons of trees.  The tree roots grow into the pipes and jack everything up.  The same thing happened this time last year as well…but it was worse…way worse.  Poop came up in the bathtub..that’s pretty darn nasty huh?

So for now, I can only sit and admire the beauty…and I tell ‘ya…they sure are purdy!
