We just bought a GE front load washer and dryer that's being delivered tomorrow morning. That's not the hard part. The hard part is the new utility sink that I'm having to install. Our old washer was so off balance that my 3-year old daughter described it as a "monster in the laundry room", and it vibrated so badly it moved in the laundry room and cracked the old sink as a result. My wife decided she wanted a "nice" utility sink. It has been nothing short of a pain in the ass to install. The biggest problem is how the pipes were installed into the house. The shut-off valves are virtually inches off the floor and the pipes are much taller than they have to be. I had to hack off nearly a quarter of the bottom shelf just for access to the shut-off valves, and even then, because of the unnecessary height of the pipes, I still can't push the sink up against the wall. And because of that, the drainage pipes that came with the sink is just too short - like an inch or two. Which means I have to get up earlier than I really want to on a Saturday morning to run to the hardware store and buy some more piping and hope I finish installing it before the guys deliver the washer and dryer tomorrow morning.
This is the definition of FML.
