Clothes washer was shut down when I woke up this morning.  Things were going so well, too.  I called the repair guy and he'll be out Monday or Tuesday to look at washer and the stove top.... replace one of the heating elements.  Maybe he'll have a better stove for me instead.  This one is out of production, but has a downdraft, which I need.  Maybe I can find a newer one for the same money as a new heating element.  I guess repair guys are considered essential workers, cause he's very busy.

The new moss friend texted her day was going really well.  Yesterday she was upset over something she resolved. Helping her is like working on a lovely Japanese garden....bc her's is very Japanese, while mine is more of a mountain wood moss garden.  It's more creativity, more interest and more fun. 

I think it might go down to freezing tonight.  It was cold this morning so put a pot of ham and bean soup to cook..... will make GF cornbread from King Auther SO GOOD. 

Also made a Szechuan noodle dish with pork.... there's enough food for several days.   I can focus on other things this weekend.

Happy Good Friday... Happy Easter.

Ah I hope he can fix or replace it, Lighter, it's such a pain when those things break, they're so essential.  The food sounds yummy, and so do the moss gardens!  I am picturing you with your moss friend sitting in moss eating nice food with washing blowing on the line after the machine is fixed :)  Lol xx

Wash machine needs replacing.  Could fix it....control panel going.  The bearings making funny noises too.  Maybe 800.00 in parts alone.  That's nuts.  Will look for another very soon.....and shop for a few groceries when I do.

Repair guy will check on stove parts and get back to me, I've been checking parts and they're super pricey.  Might look for newer stove. 

The moss is happy for the rain, but covered in storm debris.  I'm working in short bursts.  It's not bad. It's not feeling good either.

Ah, Lighter, it's so frustrating when big things break down at the same time, especially when they're such essential things.  Can you still use them both in the meantime or are they not working at all?  Difficult as well when parts and labour are more than a new item.

I hope you can sort the storm debris out and get the moss back the way you want it soon xx xx

Hopalong:
Lighter,
I hope you can float in that not-bad, not-good place and try out a state of trust...

Life is here. Change is here.

All will continue and all will be well.

hugs
Hops
