We brought home a tightly wrapped bundle of joy on Thursday and by Friday evening it was humming with pure contentment. In spite of the sleepless hours getting it snugly into its new place in our home, and the scraped knuckles, encounters with enormous bugs, and numerous wonderings if we had made the right decision, within an hour of its humming? So were we.
No, we did not get another kitty, or a puppy, or a baby... we got a DISHWASHER.
A glorious, beautiful, stainless steel contraption that has taken hours of work out of every day of my life... and increased the amount of times Hubband can help with the dishes. He always has helped when he could, but my love of actual cooked meals creates many many dishes and therefore helping is a longish proposition and homework infinitely more important in the scheme of things than scrubbing pots and pans.
So, he took a few hours of his time on Thursday and carved out a place for our new contraption.
He looked at our electrical and plumbing and ran screaming to his algebra homework.
Friday, he spent hours working on wiring, buying and returning numerous plumbing apparati, and finally... tightening the last nut and caulking the last seam of pipe, and starting the very first load.
Life is good.

Awesome! woohoo! say, mom asked what kind of dishwasher it is. It looks like the one they got recently, in thier last house.
Wow! Awesome! I love dishwashers and hate dishwashing. Good job, well done! Whatever did you do with the stuff that was in your cupboard? You don't have much cupboard space to begin with!
That....is a sexy dishwasher.
