As long as you are reasonably handy, dryers are an easy fix. I’ve even replaced the heating coils.

Lost Souls:

I had a repair guy come in to look at my dryer a couple weeks ago, he said the motor was dead, and it’d be $300 for a new one, plus the installation fees, so for about three weeks i’ve been hang drying my laundry.

on sunday’s I do my laundry, so I started there. fixed a family members computer, played some games, and got bored, so I took the dryer apart, cleaned out the inside a bit.
a duct came loose, so I cleaned the surface fixed that, then noticed that there is a foam piece that acts as a spacer between the drum and the door that came loose and was pinching on one side. I pulled the front door off, reseated it, put the door back and the drum started spinning again, so I put it back together and turned it on… it works fine now.

probably voided my warrenty but it saved me over $300 in repairs. now I don’t have to hang my clothes up on sundays anymore they dry very slowly inside on rainy days.

other then that, seems like all there is to do really in this town is go for a walk, rain or shine I see people along with myself walking everywhere, you could rent a movie from Henry’s and get some popcorn and just relax probably, or find something productive.

check your list of things you wanted to take care of but kept putting them off until you absolutely have to.

Lost Souls, so glad you saved money and amazing when pressure if off and find things to do. I love projects and seeing things come together. Glad it worked out for you.
