I LOVE IT!

For 3 1/2 years I have been washing dishes by hand. Let me tell you, it has been horrible! I'm the type of person who lets things pile up to the point of driving me crazy before I clean. So therefore the sink was always full of dishes. Plus I would just look at it and go.... ewe there's at least an hour and a half's worth there. Well, when Paul's school money came in we decided to get a new dishwasher! We had one that was at least 10 years old, and it was definitely used and abused. I don't think water even sprayed out of the thing. Dishes came out dirtier than they went in. It was just time. The new one arrived at 11:30 this morning and it took us 2 hours (and saved $100) to get the old one out and the new one in. I had a big pile of dishes waiting for it. It is AMAZING! It cut my dishes time in HALF! Now I'm actually excited to do the dishes. Hooray for new things that work!

Yay! That is SO a priority in our house is having that wonderful dishwasher! We didn't have one in our little apartment and it was TERRIBLE! Of course, we also only had one sink that was about 4 inches deep... that MAY or may not have been a part of why doing dishes by hand sucked so bad... :O) Congrats you guys!
