I have a nice new one from last year so no coat shopping for me.Wish I could say that! I hate being cold and for some reason, I always am. I have to go winter coat shopping too :/ My nice warm one got all ripped up last year on the hardware cloth.
We desperately need a new one. Ours kicked the bucket about 2 weeks before school started. Dishes was the kids' job and they would take turns every week doing them. Once the dishwasher went, they switched every other day to make it easier. Now that school is back in, homework is coming home, dance class and girl scouts are back in full swing, I'm stuck doing the dishes. Kids just don't have time anymore!

X2....Well - heck. That is next door neighbors here.
