Besides that - snow at our house revolves around our turnstyle door and the dryer. Normally, after a few days of snow it takes us, with all of our snow gear, a few days to dry out. It's one of those things I sincerely don't look forward to. Mainly because of all of the boots, I suppose.
Recently, a friend of ours gave us a washer & dryer. They got a new one, we "inherited" their old ones. We had had our washer since the beginning of our marriage - so it's at least 13 years old. Someone gave it to us when we were first married, so I imagine - it wasn't new then either.
Our dryer, we got off of craigslist 3 or 4 years ago. Loved it when it was working... but it had lint troubles and the heating element went out on probably 3 times since we've had it. It's just been time to get a new one!
So, anyhow, when these friends of ours asked if we wanted another washer & dryer, I jumped at the chance (mainly b'c of our dryer issues). It's this cool double dryer. Drys shirts, sweaters - has racks for stuff - and hooks for hanging things like shoes and gloves. Didn't know if we'd like it - but we L.O.V.E. it! Turns out that we use the top all of the time. Since we've had this dryer - it's the first time in ages - that I've been able to keep up with the laundry! Amazing!
Back to the van. Well, we still have our spider spikes. Rod grew up driving in the snow. He's pretty darn confident. The Lord took care of us before - and I know He'll do it again!!!
