We have lived in the house for 15 years now, and I think that is the age when everything breaks down. Since January, our lawnmower has broken down (we had to buy a new one), our dishwasher broke down (we had to buy a new one), our clothes washer broke down (we had to buy a new one), the day we got our new clothes washer, our dryer broke down (new one due next Wednesday.) Due to constant headaches, we also bought a new computer and printer. My MP3 player broke down too, but it was under warranty.
We had a service man in to look at our stove (the top display of the clock is gone so we never know if there is 7:09 left or 1:u4 left.) He said it could not be fixed. Now, if the clock does go completely, I would be pretty reluctant to buy a new stove, but Sharon has pointed out that we would never know what temperature the oven was at. I will have to somehow come up with a plan with a meat thermometer and a digital watch to defer the purchase.
Hopefully, the fridge lasts.
