David and I had a laugh this morning. After everything that's gone on the past three days we both slept better last night than we have in months. We must have been both physically and emotionally exhausted.
However, the washer had not been leveled, and that was our task this morning. David was up and out to Rona to buy shims, first thing. Then we spent several hours trying to level the damned thing. Finally, we decided that it was good enough. Very stable and, using three different levels, looked fairly good. Only later did we realize that the lid of the machine was actually slanted, and we would have never got it right.
By that time, it was 2:00 and well past lunch time. We put a load of towels in to give the machine a good test, and everything went well. Who knew you could wash a large load of towels with only 4 tablespoons of detergent? The other loads were smaller and used even less. WE may never use up the two gallon plus bottles we have.
After a trip out for coffee, and to the library, we tried to spend the rest of the day relaxing. Both of us had very sore knees, David more so than me, as he had been the one kneeling down to put in the shims.
So now it's bed time. Maybe we'll sleep well tonight too.
