Sickies Aftermath not so Easy to Clean When...

the dishwasher goes kaput!

We're new homeowners...that is, we bought a brand new home 2 yrs ago, and it's our first house.

This whole idea of having to fix it "on our own" is kind of scary. It's no longer as easy as calling the landlord and saying, "This needs fixed," and letting it go after that. I mean, granted we have a limited warranty on the appliances, and it appears to be an electrical issue which is covered for 2-5 years - but what if it's not covered? How much is this going to cost? Let alone clean up...there's a whole load of dishes that aren't entirely clean yet in there.

So, I called the appliance guy, he's coming tomorrow. Until then, say hello to dishpan hands. Maybe Charlie Brown and I can do them together รก la the early days of our marriage???

Whaddya'll think, bets for or against Chuck getting his hands wet? I'm taking a poll...;-)

  1. No betters? 's Ok, though b/c neither of us ended up doing the dishes! I just rinsed and stacked all over my counter space and waited for the repair guy to get here.

    The Damage? $64 for him to re-connect an electrical thing that somehow wasn't covered under the electrical warranty....go figure.
