As difficult as it is to depart from this one, it’s got to get the boot. It’s only six years old and only used for four. It was a very good washing machine and a very expensive one; that’s what makes it hard to get rid of it. It actually lasted this long because it’s a good one. I got it back when I lived by the sea. I remember that a good friend had to ditch her cheaper one after only two years. These appliances can take so much sea corrosion, heat, and humidity. This one stood longer until just a few weeks ago when it finally gave in.
I was going to leave it for my dad, but the repair cost is not worth it. I even thought of salvaging the mechanism and turn it into a pottery wheel!! If I were not moving overseas, I would have taken the challenge —I’m incorrigible!!
The ‘metal-picking’ guy drives by my house almost every day. It will be just a matter of catching him and get a few bucks for its metal weight.
