I have a few dead appliances now. The dishwasher died. Haven't really missed it. I don't have kids at home, so keeping up with the dishes hasn't been that hard. I am anxious to see what the water bill looks like now that I don't run the dishwasher. The heating system is dead, also. Will see how it affects my electric bill. Next week, we have our first real cool snap. The heating company can't find the problem, so I have to call an electrician now. Guess I will need the heat to keep the pipes from freezing if it gets that cold this year. So I guess I better get that one fixed. Half my stovetop is dead. Well, it has simplified my cooking and I don't make as much food. That's probably saved me something, also. The garbage disposal is on the fritz, but I try not to waste food anymore so I don't really use it anyway. The oven is fixed so I'm going to try Jodi's granola and stuff. Not that I didn't get along with a crockpot and microwave and stuff. But homemade desserts and snacks will save money. The very ancient dryer is shaky, but I don't dry as much stuff so that will help it out. But I figure instead of getting frustrated, I should look on the bright side. I am probably saving more money.....
