Abby thinks it's hot in here
of things that I CANNOT live without.
I just moved and my new apartment has it’s own washer/dryer…not mine to keep, but mine for a while and just as good! No more collecting quarters.

It’s really nice having the convenience, but it was a lot of money to put out at once. Overall, it was worth it because we’ll have it for a long time to come.
I enjoy the time and money saved and avoid the negative energy I felt at the laundromat… women yelling at their little kids. I had young children then, and it certainly showed me something I didn’t want to expose them to.

I hated going to the laundry mat my whole life. One of the first things we did when we bought our house was get a real bed( no more stupid futon)a refrigerator and a beautiful washer and dryer. I have them in the garage and I keep them wiped down and clean. They are almost 15 years old and the still look new and work so well.

It’s kind of comical that in New York City, even people who are high-earners and live in fancy apartments can consider a washer and dryer of one’s own an “aspirational luxury.” That when I see someone who has their own, I gasp with impressed envy.
It’s only comical because in most of America it’s consdered a given that every average Joe has a washer and dryer in their house.
When me and Richard bought our condo, we already decided where we would put a washer and dryer (there was no hookup, so that will have to get done). We still have to figure out whether we should put in a vent or get a condensation drier. Then we have to actually get everything installed. It’s not even the cost that’s prohibiting me as much as my knowing nothing about water pipes and venting and therefore not even knowing where to begin with getting this done.
I spend $35 everytime I go to the laundromat! That’s really steep considering I dont have many clothes as it is. I don’t like going there either because my clothes get wrecked in three washes or less.
We used to live in an apartment where we had community washers and dryers in each building. I hated having to hoard quarters and time each load to make sure I got my clothes out before one of the neighbors did.
