I did it!!!

WARNING:
Blatant self-crowing session about to commence. If you, understandably, don't feel like listening to me brag on myself, then you'd best skeedaddle!

Still here?

You sure you want to read this?

HeeeeHeeee - OKAY!!!

I just thought I would let the wonderful Zoo readers out there know that I just replaced the heating element in our dryer. All by myself. Yep. The dryer quit heating up to dry the clothes, and I figured it was the heating element that had died. (My last old dryer did the same thing). I watched my dad fix that one (this was pre-Jmk days), so I had seen the guts of a dryer before. AND, with the "magic" of the internet, I had a go-by pulled up on the laptop and brought it into the laundry room with me.

And this morning, I just decided I wasn't going to wait till this weekend for Jmk to get into it and fix it. I just had to do this myself. Or, at least, I was going to try.

AND I DID IT!!!!! The dryer is working!!!!

Man. Do I feel like a Mrs. Fix-it right now, or what??? heeheee!

For all those people who know that replacing a heating element (this was NOT the kind that has to go around the drum of the dryer) really isn't that hard, y'all just hush. I'm still on a DIY high over here.
