"Washer Wonder"

Our washer is kind of old. Iit works, it cleans, and does what it is supposed to.

Sometimes.

I suppose the only problem it has is when I overloaded it. Literally. Sometimes I stuff way too many clothes in the barrel, trying to save myself "another load." What usually happens, however, is that it gets off balance. Then SKUWAMPUS. The weight of the water-logged clothes throw the spin out of balance, creating a shaking, stomping, grumbling monster. Thus, sending me down the stairs in a frenzy, to even things up a bit before it EXPLODES. Or breaks.

I suppose that is what happens. We are built to carry loads. Shake them, spin them, and then present them "clean...," ready for another.

But please...give me what I can handle!
