We got our flexible spending reimbursement straightened out, so with some of that money (the rest goes to debt and getting me a new pair of glasses, something I haven’t had since five years ago), we got a new washing machine.
Our old one was and is a great machine when it’s on a concrete floor. Unfortunately, that isn’t the case with a second-floor laundry. It wobbled and shook, and no amount of adjusting and releveling would keep it from shaking the walls down. So, sadly, it had to go.
The new one is a Samsung VRT, which has an automatic releveling system that uses bearings or somesuch to automatically relevel itself when it gets out of joint.
I don’t understand it; I’ve just used it. It rocks.
