Whenever anything bad happened, my mom always used to say, "Bad things come in 3s." Celebrity deaths seem to adhere to that rule almost without exceptin. My neighbor just lost his beloved dog, had his car stolen and his daughter announced she's getting a divorce, all within one week. Hang in there, Deac. You've had your three.

Gee you guys are a ray of sunshine. My favorite bible passage is, "This too shall come to pass." There is more of course but that is my favorite part.

I am here to tell you Jesus does not bring an end to all earthly troubles. I say that as a Christian.
This is true Pablo ... but thank God, through it all, no matter what, we have "a friend that sticketh closer than a brother." (Proverbs 18:24)

If you need a new washer and dryer get front loaders! Bought ours almost two years ago (after our washer died too) and they were definately worth the extra money.

You can "pre-wash" your hands with dishwashing liquid, no water, using like a hand lotion. The go out and work all day in the shop.

When you wash your hands afterwards, nearly all the greasy crud washes right off. Try it!

Gloves are like tape....I have too many choices.
I generally use nitrile gloves (purple) and sometimes latex (no harsh chemicals involved).
I use the dishwashing liquid for the tiny delicates that require the best dexterity from my shaky hands.
