now these pies taste much, much better.

almost like mom's.

my washer won't run the spin cycles.

the washing machine's lid has a peg on it that lines up with a notch in the door frame of the washing machine's chassis. the peg on the door depresses a switch underneath that notch when you lower the lid.

well, the switch is mounted in just the right place by screws. the mount broke from wear and tear over the years.

i fumbled with it for days. i tried tape and cords to try and hold it in place. sometimes it would work. but the jarring of the spin cycle throws everything out of place.

but as my pies were baking, i finally had an idea.

the switch has a flexible metal brace under it that protrudes out like a long lip or finger.

I bent the metal brace backwards and permanently pressed down the switch.

voilĂ !

all the cycles complete. i can wash my clothes again.

i should be sleep. you wouldn't realize that i have to be at work in the morning if you notice how late this log spooled.
