Our New Toys

As I sit here typing this, I am waiting for my very first load of laundry to wash at my place. After years of dragging laundry to my mom's every weekend I finally have my own washer. This one also dries. It is an all in one - washer/dryer combo. I don't plan on using the drying feature too much because it will use a lot of electricity, but it is good to know I have it. AND the best part is that it is hidden in a cabinet (we are not supposed to have washers in the condo). Everyone else has one so I figured I would take the risk. In every thing else I made sure that I followed the rules in the renovation - licenced plummer, electrician, contractor. Hey, no one is follows ALL the rules ... Do they?

So, Sentayehu's new toy is one that have seen for years (ever since my friend's 5 year old was a baby). It is from the show Word World - a fish toy. The body is formed by the letters

F-I-S-H which are magnectic. I always liked them, but thought they were kind of expensive, but last night I went to Target and MANY toys were on clearance (30 - 75% off). The fish toy was about $3! I also got many toys for my cousins' children which I will save for Christmas.
