So, I called in sick on Monday, November 29,2021, but without much comfort. I went to work the next day, and over did it, as I am often wont to do. Wednesday, I forced myself to go to work in the morning, because the new washing machine was going to be delivered that afternoon. And it was!
Reading the instructions for the new washing machine was very enlightening. I already had been advised not to overload the machine. Additionally, I learned not to wrap items around the agitator, but to put the clothes in piles in the washer tub. News to me! I wonder when I should have learned that? Also, this machine works best with HE detergent. I purchased some, and am mixing it 2 to 1 with the detergent I already have, until the non-HE detergent is used up.
This washing machine has a much smaller basket for washing clothes, and it is like, pardon me, but God "bitch slapped me" to make me realize I did not have to carry heavy, large, megaloads of laundry from the washing machine in my kitchen to the dryer in my garage. I should have realized this in 2015, after my back surgery. Wow, am I slow!
I called in sick on Thursday and went to the walk in clinic at my provider's office. Fortunately, she was "on call" and took care of me. She did "stat" chest x-rays and gave me breathing exercises because my primary concern was not being able to clear my lungs. The xrays came back negative. All sounds well.
