check
we sortof fixed some of the leaking. we were unable to find a replacement drain hose for the back of the washing machine, so bryan just bought some rubber hose, some clamps and a chunk of pipe to use as an extension and voila, we have a new drain hose. unfortunately somewhere between home depot and our house one of the hose clamps seems to have fallen out of the bag, so we could only clamp the hose on in one place and the place where it wasn't clamped started leaking. but it's not a bad leak and it's high enough up on the hose that it only leaks during the spin cycle. theoretically getting a second clamp on there will fix that problem.
now if only we could fix the leak on the hot water valve...

so close and yet...
saturday night, as i mentioned, we finally picked up the washer and dryer. they are older than i thought (i thought they were only a year old, but are more like 4 years old), but still in nearly-new condition, and they are huuuuuuge inside. i think i could wash my entire wardrobe at once. the dryer even came with a little shelf thing for drying shoes!!!!
unfortunately because of the leaking, i still can't do laundry. i've figured out what needs to be fixed, and i think we can do it ourselves (part of it, anyway), so i guess that will be on the schedule tonight after work.

little by little
today we will be picking up a customer car and unable to work on the house. but yesterday we made a little progress. not quite enough for me to say it makes up for not working on it today, but enough to say we did something, at least.
