I'm relieved we have bought a new second hand washing machine which replaced the old one. The spoilt one was here since the day we moved in, left behind by the previous owner. Not sure how long it had been used before us. At least it served us for these past 6 years.
Then again, with the old age this home is, everything else seems to be falling apart. The bathroom door in our master bedroom can't be closed, the walls on the side of the doors to our rooms have cracks, the skirting has some parts falling out, the kitchen cabinets are old and worn, the aircons don't quite produce cool air, the curtain railings dangling, wardrobe door has been ripped apart by didi years ago, paints on the walls are stained, main door can't open properly, dining chairs becoming rocking chairs, dining table visibly tortured, plants dying, microwave oven san san dei, pressure cooker also san san dei, clothes hanger has some loose screws, some electrical points switches can't be turned off, and to add on to this already long list, last saturday evening, the water tap in the laundry area burst open and flooded the whole area! We are so screwed.
With this long list of repairs that need to be done one day, I think we got to move out to get it all done. In the interim, IF we do move home, we can finally sort out the junk that had been accumulating in the store rooms. Out goes the junk, not to the new home, please. IF we do move to a new home. Can't wait for that to happen though. A new breath of air would do us some good, I do hope.
