Just one person and so much dish washing.

Tweet

Years ago, in fact decades ago, my husband bought a dishwasher after my back surgery. I did not mind cooking but standing half bent in front of the sink was painfull and disgusting. I have never liked to wash pots (dishes I accept) or make beds. After decades, the dishwasher had a minor problem. But the technician told me that the machine was too old and that there weren´t any parts. It wasn´t even an electric problem. It was just 2 rubber bands that leaked. First Claudia gave me her diswasher. After I installed it I knew why she had given it to me. The machine did not wash. And the dishes come out with a horrible smell no matter what detergent I used. Finally the thing gave up and started to say ERROR when I turned it on. By then, Tania decided to give me her dishwasher. She was moving to her Tiny House on the Prairie and there was no place for it there. I asked Marco to install it. It took him a whole day to clean off dry detergent from every possible part. Then, after it was installed in my kitchen. I ran it 10 or more times with no dishes and vinegar. But the rest of the detergent was ther for keeps. I tried to wash dishes like that but they did not come out clean. So I was back to my hands. I´m glad that now I don´t give parties with 30 or more people. I invite Dixie and she washes the dishes while Humberto and I eat all the leftovers, drink good just brewed coffee and talk. Next week Rosa will come to my house. She could not come this week. If her husband comes, I´ll ask him to check both my ancient dishwasher and this "new" one. If the broken parts fit, I´ll ask him to fix it for me. I gave him Claudia´s dishwasher but I kept my old one just in case someone would be able to fix it. I will also ask him to write down the model. Maybe I can get the part online. I think that yesterday I read one of your posts about how much better all gadgets were. It is true.
