Just what you don't want to happen in your new house.

Yes!!! Our dishwasher broke. We are very lucky we had an excellent Real Estate Agent who made sure the people we bought the house from paid for a Home Warranty. The dishwasher is covered, but we are going to have to battle them, because being a typical insurance agency they are claiming we haven't been in the house long enough. Our policy says the warranty takes effect on the day we move in. We also used the dishwasher about 5 times. Its Motor started running hot, so it broke down. It is so old that the repairman said it would probably be best if we just replace it. The Home Warranty people were susposed to call me yestereday and to give them the benefit of the doubt I have waited all day today and they still haven't called, so I will have to call them tommorow and raise a rumpus. Jimmy had great fun sucking the water out with the wet/dry vac and Grandpa Barrett's help.

Hi Kaye! Welcome to the side of the Bloggers, ha, ha! And big congrats on your new house. I hope you are getting nice & settled, despite the unfortunate dishwasher incident. :(
I just finished reading The Blue Castle by L.M. Montgomery of Anne of Green Gables fame. The main character, Valancy Stirling, had this to say about a house: "I like a house I can love and cuddle and boss." I hope you feel that way about your new house!
