Sorry about the washer. A storm that came through about 3 weeks ago hit the transformer by the house. The surge took out our washer, dryer, microwave, and two bathroom fans, and wind took off a few pieces of the house. $2500 in losses and wouldn’t you know insurance deductible was $5000. Ouch.
My tomatoes are getting the fungus on lower branches. I think it is a Fusarium fungus and the only way I know to stop it from killing the plants is fungicide.
Oh my. Your losses are so much worse than mine. It’ll just cost around 1200 for a new laundry unit, but we don’t have to do it immediately. For a little more than 400 bucks we got the washer and dryer fixed. 75 bucks of that was to look at the laundry unit and tell us that the motor couldn’t be replaced, because they didn’t make it anymore.
