New washer

 I had to buy a new washer last month.  My old one, yeah, the intake valve stuck and it flooded my house.  Note to self.  Never ever leave your washer running especially filling.  So after clean up, I started shopping.  I knew I could not afford my first choice at this time.  I would dearly love to have a Speed Queen set, but it is over $2,000.  And I do not have my dryer vent hooked up yet.  So only a washer needed at this time.  I searched Lowes, Home Depot, and Conns. Conns website sucks so I left it pretty quick.  Not a lot of selection at Home Depot.  So Lowes it was.  And I agonized over the one I finally bought.  I needed one with a really big capacity because after last winter's fiasco here in Texas, I stocked up on comforters at the thrift store.  So I needed one that would wash up to a king size comforter.  And Whirlpool fully computerized was the only one I could get.  I do not like it.  But it is what it is.  I'll stick with it.  It does not clean as well as I would like.
