Laughing at myself.
If your washer won't work, don't do what I almost did and that is call a repair man before you check something else first.

I was doing my laundry this morning and in mid cycle, my washer quits. I go in there and try to get it started back and it wouldn't. I turned and turned the knob but still no luck. I thought oh no, another repair bill.

It just kept nagging at me and I went back and tried everything again but it still wouldn't work. I thought I would let it set a little while and try it later. I waited and tried everything again later but it still wouldn't start. I thought well looks like I'm going to have to call my repair man Monday.

Anyone that knows me knows that I don't give up easily so I tried it again. This time I thought "It acts like it isn't getting any power". I looked at the power cord behind the machine and it was just barely hanging in the socket. I pushed it in and it worked!!!!!! This machine had vibrated the power cord out of the socket just enough so it wasn't getting power.

Since then, I have been laughing at myself if I had called my repair man. He would have never let me hear the end of this. He is a friend of mine. Just imagine paying a repair bill to have him to plug your machine in.

If yours doesn't work, try the power cord first.
 
It's another gloriously warm sunny day...🌞🌞🌼

I had planned to go out today but due to causing the problem with my back yesterday with the over zealous gardening.. I thought it best to stay home today. I did go out and sit in the garden doing my crossword for a while to get my dose of Vit D... the spring flowers are blooming and everything looks pretty. I do feel sorry I couldn't go out because the forecast for all change next week.. even tomorrow it's forecast for Fog.. and only 58 deg !
My neighbour popped his head over the fence, and asked if he could replace a part of my privacy fence at the back, because he;s going to replace the whole of his which runs along the back of my garden for some distance , so he'll replace mine with new.. and also replace my trellis on top too.. so altho' mine doesn't need replacing, it's about 10 years old, but of course I said he could..

Yesterday I came across an old VHS/DVD recorder at the great price of $50! I have lots of VHS home movies I have wanted to transfer to disc and have been looking for one of these units. I set it up this morning to test it, I didn't want to chance damaging a family home movie so I grabbed some old Little Rascals videos I have, and just spent two hours watching them!

They could never make those movies today but man they are funny.
 
The car repair guy called this morning and said my car is done. He picked me up to go get it. That was nice of him so I didn't have to walk in the rain/snow mix that's been coming down. I paid for it and I asked him if it's still making that smell. He said no and told me if I smell anything to give him a call. I drove straight home because I didn't want to be on the road in this weather. I still have to test it to see if that smell comes from it again. I'll have to take a longer drive but not right now. I sure hope the problem is gone. If the problem starts again I don't think I'll take it back to him. I don't know, though, yet.

Going to have a relaxing day today. Music, movies and not much else.
