I think if you would bring him over for a visit you first have to knit a warm suit for him LOL.<br /><br />I'm lucky to have a very handy hub. He can fix almost everything in our house. Except for the freezer that died about 3 weeks ago. He said it isn't worth repairing this one. We still have to buy a new one. Maybe next weekend because I have a little freezer above my fridge but I'm beginning to miss the bigger one. <br /><br />Love the knitting projects, look great.

...I'm a bit like Paco with this cooler weather!<br /><br />I love technology for the *helpful* info (not the TMI). When I was pet-sitting last month, the homeowner's dishwasher refused to come on. The start light blinked 8 times and then nothing. So I googled "start light blinks 8 times" and found out that it was some sort of control panel and that there was a work-around for it involving unplugging it and then plugging it in again. Worked great. Homeowner reports that it's been working fine for them. Whatever. :)<br />Cammy@TippyToeDiethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00547787031318303521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-16327977954311110752013-10-25T08:25:34.630-05:002013-10-25T08:25:34.630-05:00Yay for pet photos!

Because I probably would have replaced the whole dryer!! Very very cool that Jeff can do such fancy repairs!<br /><br />The sweater is going to be so beautiful! Smart of you to do another project in between. Its probably good for your hands too? And look at you, knitting without a pattern! Woo hoo!!<br /><br />Note to self: today is Friday.

That looks like seed stitch? It is slower and more finger-labor-intensive, but it sure looks great when done. Love your Paco pics - our Wally, who originally hailed from the Dominican Republic, is also rebelling to the cold by burrowing down under sheets, and I believe trying to actually get under our bodies.<br />Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12401609334253676307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-49888397220090055102013-10-25T07:29:29.727-05:002013-10-25T07:29:29.727-05:00LOL, I guess I should have put that it was a Whirp...LOL, I guess I should have put that it was a Whirpool Sport Duet dryer in the post, just for search purposes!

Anytime we can fix something without a repairman I feel a huge victory, too!<br /><br />We were able to return the part since it was unopened. :)Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05890227462052573887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-71196686754163689912013-10-25T07:26:26.830-05:002013-10-25T07:26:26.830-05:00When you unravel a knitted project, you "rip ...When you unravel a knitted project, you "rip it" out - which sounds like ribbit, which lead to the term "frogging"...but hey, use it as you like! :)Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05890227462052573887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-21920367040313845432013-10-25T07:23:30.302-05:002013-10-25T07:23:30.302-05:00Haha Paco!

...Haha Paco! (He looks so big in the recliner pic.)<br /><br />Jeff's repair is pretty amazing! And that post will probably end up helping someone else. Y'know, if someone is searching "crackle, crackle pfft" online. Haha!<br />I rely on my Dad for advice for these kinds of things too, although my hubby & I just replaced a dishwasher handle with a bit o' initial help from engineer son, & a lot of internet research by me. (bc let's be honest-figuring out exactly what part is needed to fix problem, & what part number for my model is a big part of the battle!) I was so proud of us, but I think this board y'all fixed takes the prize. So he could return the part or cancel order? Usually that's a no. Well done Jeff! <br />Happy weekend, ChrissySteelers6https://www.blogger.com/profile/12259433761178851023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-52112046601142154472013-10-25T06:55:05.602-05:002013-10-25T06:55:05.602-05:00My whole life is inopportune too so I completely u...My whole life is inopportune too so I completely understand.
