Loosing a Dear Friend

I wish it wasn't true, but I have seen it coming for a long time. My Dear Bessie has been declining for quite some time. She lost her companion earlier this summer and has never been the same since. It is so sad to watch her last moments, struggling to do what she has always done with ease before. I have spent nearly every day of the past 10 years with this dear friend. She has always been there for me, even when I asked her to do the most unwanted chores to help me out. She has been there through sick children, bed wetting, camping trips, and the daily in's and out's of family life. Thank you my Dear Bessie! You have been a true friend! I will miss you. It is difficult to loose you at this time of year. There will never be another washing machine like you!

  6. Bummer, that was clever though, I wondered how you saw that friend everyday for 10 years!?!? Washing machines are a necessary evil. Our deep freeze went out also so I'm on the prowl for a new one, why is it always at such a bad time of year?
