Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

[Fields Mountain Farm]

I have a very expensive Super Power that allows me to kill any/all electrical appliances simply by touching (sometimes only looking at) them. Combine that with the cheap way everything is made now days & we are constantly buying new appliances. In the last 20yrs we've had to buy 3 refrigerators, at least 3 washers & dryers, 2 dishwashers, 1 oven (that one was old so probably not my fault) & more microwaves, toaster ovens, hair dryers, & cell phones than I could possibly count.

This washer (just a few years old) has been unbalanced & on its deathbed for months. Last night DH & I were staring at it, hunched over like Neanderthals grunting & poking proverbial sticks at it. At one point he reached over, unplugged it & plugged it back in. I'm amazed, but that actually worked! Its still severely unbalanced, but at least I'm able to squeeze a few more loads out of it.

Omg... it's like that for me...
May the appliance gods look down on your washer with favour!

I've been told I'm unbalanced, particularly in the spin cycle.

So the broody has been named Samantha, and she had tried to kill me like 5 times today. She is not one to be messed with.

I think that makes her a good broody! protecting those chicks!

Don't you know by now not to mess with a cranky momma hen tending her chicks?
I like her name!

I was thinking something outta PVC pipe..... Bolted to the roof of my topper with ubolts..... And I'd cut grooves so I could lock the reels in place

I did that on the back of the bicycle I rode when I was taken off the road for 6 months; looked like rocket launchers

When i built my hoop coop i drove in t posts and attached the cattle panels to the top of the posts. Its about 10 feet high in there.

As long as I can stand up straight in it, it's fine for DW, & I'm building it for her. She's something less than 4'10"
