That's sort of what I did. I hate going to laundromats! When I moved in here and inherited this house when my Dad passed, it had a washer hook up but not dryer. I didn't own either anymore so I went to a 2nd hand appliance store and picked some out. Now I always expect to have problems with used equipment and sure enough, as soon I hooked up the washer it started leaking so I was back on that phone fast saying hey come fix it now, it should at least be water tight in the water lines, lol!
That poor guy and his little shop. He had to make 3 trips out to fix it! He wouldn'r buy new parts! But he did and I was impressed. It's been working good and leak free for almost 6 or 7 years now? Not bad for $150 bucks for the pair. Not a true pair, just two white ones that worked.
Once I cut into the drain line and put in a proper trap which only took me about 35 minutes because that's what I do, or did, lol.
hate not the laundromats . THEY are a nest egg for evanglising .
I have no desire now to buy a new washer to wash at home .
THEM places have the lost all within them and they need to hear of CHRIST
and all biblical reminders . have the joy of the LORD wherever you go and in whatever you do .
THERE IS always someone who needs to hear of Christ , or brethern who need to be reminded and encouraged .
THE CHURCHES sure as heck aint doing it . most of them DECIEVE and fleece the flocks .
We have a mission and our mission can be in any place and any location . even at the park
or at the work place , or while washing clothes , or at the store shopping . YOU TURN IT INTO A HONOR THE LORD
event and let that LIGHT SO SHINE BEFORE ALL . i was just encouraged by that reminder myself even as i gave it .
WE ON A MISSION my friend .
