When I got the call, I waited and anxiously peered out the blinds like Mrs. Kravitz.

And if you’re too young to remember Mrs. Kravitz, don’t tell me, m’kay? (as I pluck a stray gray hair)

I pulled out my camera and Mr.Mullet Delivery Guy laughed and said, “You’d be surprised how many moms take a picture of their new appliances.” Only a mom would understand another mother’s joy over a new Maytag Bravos XL washer and dryer.

But I didn’t laugh because stain-fighting is a serious matter. May God bless laundering mothers everywhere. Amen.

Our new laundry room has been bare with a growing laundry pile.

I shoved boxes created a nice pathway for the washer and dryer to be installed.

And then I finally met my two new girlfriends.

It was love at first wash and dry. I fired these babies up before the delivery truck was gone.

I love the purr of these machines. This high efficiency Maytag duo is amazing! The washer capacity is huge and more than enough for our dirty laundry piles. The dryer is so quiet. They also both sing a little ditty when you open the door and that just makes me happy.

You know those women who love washing and drying and folding their laundry into neat little piles and delivering it happily into drawers and closets throughout the house?

I am not one of them.

I don’t hate laundry, it’s just not stress-relieving for me to do it. Plus there’s my dryer issues. A few years ago, my 15 year old washer died. The dryer was still working, so we have we’ve been mismatched for awhile and lived to tell about it! A couple of months ago, it started shredding straps to tank tops and bras, which is pretty inconvenient and rude.

We proved we were rednecks and duct taped the broken plastic  to keep it going. I’m not proud:

But I’m not complaining, I got a whole new appreciation for “doing laundry” last summer in Kenya. We took one suitcase for our whole family for 3 weeks–I was all “we’re going to live like the people” and we hand-washed until my hands were red and chapped.

People, I am not always smart.

[Next week we're taking four for the family.]

Because I’m a quick learner.

This week (in between selling our home and trying to find a place to come home to after our trip to Kenya), I was chosen to be a Maytag Ambassador. I might have screamed a little when I found out I’m receiving a Bravos XL washer and dryer to review. My kids were all “did we find a place to live??”

“No, but momma’s getting new laundry machines!”

When my kids turn 8, they get a big fat laundry lesson, so I wasn’t the only one squealing!

I’m so excited to be a part of this program because if I know anything, it’s dirty laundry! I can’t wait to share my reviews with you over the next few months.

P.S. We found a house just in the nick of time!
