Still waiting

Well a week after I order the parts I finally get one of them, the other will be here next week.  The dishwasher is sitting all torn apart with pieces sitting here and there.
The rain and melting snow has water running in the basement like a broken faucet so the sump pump is running constantly, I had to take the hose outside off when it got below freezing so the water would leave so it was really just running in a circle.  Today I put it back on but it is still running constantly, it was funny to see the black hose melt into the snow when the sun warmed it up.  Hope you like our zazzle store, we post products everyday.

Dishwasher Repair

This is the impeller and chopper, the chopper broke which took out the impeller...load noises.  The little missing piece was down inside it all.  I used a grill cleaning brush to clean out the screen, the brass bristles clean well and will not damage other metals.  Julia helped me clean up the rest of the housing so it is ready to start to put back together when the new parts get here.  I sat down to the computer, went to Sears parts and order them right away. I probably could have gone to the Sears store on Rice Street in ST Paul and picked them up but it would cost more in gas than the shipping.  I have a Black and Decker bit set that has all types of bits including Tork bits, this with the handy Black and Decker adjustable tork cordless drill made this job a LOT easier. This ten dollar repair would have cost hundreds from a service call, ah thanks to my Black and Decker and my God given ingenuity.  Canyoudougit?

Where is he?

Yes I've been gone, not much to say.  I did something wrong and adsense pulled their ads and the money we had earned, don't know what I did.  I think it might be the ZAZZLE scroll I put in.
I take photos then edit them for content then I resize them so they well be big enough to be able to sreach on the products we create. 
The dishwasher started leaving specks behind so I took the arm apart and cleaned it.  Now the pump is really winning, so I will have to take the straner apart on the bottom and clean it out.  It will drain but something is plugging the spray channels. Oh joy!
