Our house is great, but we've been having lots of adventures already. We've already had some issues with the dryer. When we bought the house we knew that the dryer didn't heat up, but the sellers would not fix it-all appliances as is. We figured the pilot light was out or something like that. Well, there was no pilot light and the part we needed to fix it was over one hundred dollars and the dryer was already 12 years old. So, we went and bought a new one...dryers are not cheap by the way. Luckily, before the dryer was delivered and while we were on vacation we got a call from my mom who said that she talked to my grandma and she has an extra dryer. Whoo hoo! We love free stuff. So we cancelled the other dryer and my mom and dad came over on Tuesday to install it. Well, if only things were that easy. All the pipes didn't fit together correctly and all that fun jazz so my dad rigged it and then told me I could use it until we got the right parts. I did one load with nothing in it to clean out the tub and everything went fine. Then I put in a second load and about half way through the cycle I was standing at the top of the stairs and noticed water on the basement floor. That's right, my dad's rigging did not stand up through the cycle. Luckily, nothing but the floor got wet and Jon and I had a silly time pushing all the water to the sump pump.
I'm sure you all are jealous of all the fun we're having. Hopefully later this weekend we can get some more things put away and start feeling settled. =)
