kate_schaeferWe're observing International Small Emergency Week at my house. The washing machine won't drain voluntarily, although it will drain if one turns the knob to just the right spot. The downstairs toilet won't flush unless one dumps a bucket of water into it. Part of the oven door fell off earlier today. Something came loose in the lint screen slot of the dryer, and now the lint screen won't go back in and the dyer is whistling ominously. The car doesn't want to shift out of park without a great deal of persuasion.
Only a week ago, all of these things worked just fine.
Glenn fixed the oven door. I've scheduled a plumber. I'll schedule the car repair and the washer and dryer repairs. We'll observe International Small Repair Week, and Domestic Let's Move On, Shall We? Week.
I am going to be very, very careful operating machinery of any size for the next few days.
