in iowa we got a place called northern lights that's pretty damn good.
also, as a midwesterner caseys taco pizza gets a mandatory mention.
I'm torn between congratulations, and, condolences. (I kid, mostly, after having been together with mine since '09.)
You seem to be on the right track with life moves lately, so, in all seriousness congratulations on this one.

Had my best friend get divorced. Going by a wedding with his then girlfriend yelled “Don’t do it!”. A year later, he married his girlfriend and is still. When you find the right person the decision is right. Congratulations!
So today's project was fixing the washer. YouTube vid showed me this one. I got this with the dryer both new for $100 from a lady when I was in the process of buying my house. Definitely want to make them last.
There are four suspension rods with springs on them basically to dampen the load shift while you are washing stuff. Inside the upper piece there is a foam bushing that over time loses grip on the rod and therefore causes excess movement. All them loads over the years wore the ole girl out.. 😉
The quickest most simplest & cheapest fix was jamming a #3 safety pin through the upper piece of plastic therefore giving metal on metal friction and controlling movement of the spring rebound. That plastic sits in the bottom of the wash drum housing.
Easiest way to get them out was layed on the front, they go out through the bottom. Once they are out it takes like 30 seconds to do one. $3 pack of safety pins genius idea, I'll see how it works this afternoon. So far it's much better and movement is how it should be testing it.

It wasn't that bad just on the start of any spin cycle, but definitely don't want it to go full dance party into the back of my Z06..🤣
