The untimely demise

of my dryer has caused endless frustration this summer. It takes FOUR cycles @ 45 minutes each to get anything close enough to being dry. Yep, I'm wasting electricity and money. The tub spins, the heat works--so I don't think it's the heating element. I'm wondering if there is a fan of some sort inside a dryer?

I do hang things outside to dry & put t-shirts on hangers...but our undies just can't go outside. (spiders--which don't bother me unless it's in correlation to my knickers)
I've shrunk the girl's jeans enough that she thought she was gaining weight. I don't like line-dried towels because it makes them stiff as sandpaper--but it's great for exfoliating.

My mom is on a mission to find me a used one at a rummage sale. Last month she bought me a dishwasher for two bucks. It's sitting in the garage still--I don't know anyone who has half a clue how to install one. I have a fear of working with electricity--if I leave my children motherless--they will have to live with their father. And I have to prevent that at all costs, he ...well...long story. I just have to outlive him.
