I'm pretty happy today. We got a late start. I woke up at 9, but it felt so good laying in bed with the dog that I decided not to get up until I felt like it. Basically I dozed for about an hour and a half. Then I had to get up because it was past time to medicate the dog.
After breakfast I decided it was time to try to fix the washer before wash day tomorrow. I pulled the washer away from the wall and spent some time cleaning the mess behind it. Then I removed the back panel. It was obvioius that it had been leaking. What wasn't obvious was from where.
I watched while it went through it's shortest wash cycle. That meant about 15 minutes of sitting on the floor. Just before the beginning of the spin cycle water started leaking, but I couldn't see from where. It looked like it could have been coming from the top of the machine.
I was about to give up when I noticed that I could remove the top easily. So I did. There were a lot of small hoses at the top of the drum. One of them had come loose. I put another clamp on it. I'm pretty sure that will fix the leak. Wrestling the washer back into place was a lot harder then moving it out. I'm not sure why. I am happy that I don't have to give some repairman any money.
I ran out of bananas, so we took the dog to Circle C and then went to HEB. The dog was really happy to go. She sniffed around everything while we just walked. We got some shrimp and bacon at HEB and that's what we had for dinner. It was just as good as last time.
Ellen did a second coat of paint on the display case we bought. It looks really good.
