I just need to have a moment….

I went outside to use the power washer this morning.  I used it in early June for the deck and back of the house and had finally found the time to get the front porch and front siding done.  Mr. W. helps by dragging it out, connecting the hosing, getting the extension cord, setting in place, etc.   Well not so this morning.   When I went to use it he was fussing about with it on the work table.  Something with the hose connector to the unit.  New ‘o’rings tried, used WD-40 and nothing.   He looked online to get a replacement hose and here is my frustration……..

a. model no longer made, 

b. Company absorbed by a larger company or out of business 

c. Replacement parts not available separately

d. All of the above. 

I get so frustrated the you can’t repair and kept what you have.   No, you have to trash it and buy new.  I go back out to continue putzing  about the yard.   

Mr. W. comes out to tell me he has ordered a new pressure washer from Amazon. Be here tomorrow he says. 

What did you get?    (Anticipating I would be told how many PSI, what brand, electric, battery or gas)

It’s orange.

I think I’ll just go upstairs and stitch.
