Llegué a esta linda [iniciativa](https://peakd.com/hive-108539/@home.solutions/mi-electrodomestico-estrellainiciativa-espeng) por la amable invitación de mi amiga @annafenix, pensé que no me daba chance, pero los amigos de la comunidad, me aclararon que sí me daba chance de participar, pues la extendieron, cuestión que me encantó, gracias. Entonces aprovecho la ocasión para invitar también a @actioncats, @yole y a @tonyes, para que se nos unan a participar. Entremos en tema: mi electrodoméstico estrella, sin dudarlo, es la lavadora. Lo sé concretamente, porque ya he experimentado su ausencia y de hecho la que tengo ahora una Siragon automática y les muestro en mis fotos es relativamente nueva, porque mi antigua lavadora una Electrolux también automática se fue dañando, la reparábamos, duraba un tiempo bien hasta que dijo: "hasta aquí llegue"; para ese tiempo no teníamos la manera de comprar una y toco ahorrar corriendo para comprar la que tenemos.English
I came across this wonderful [initiative](https://peakd.com/hive-108539/@home.solutions/mi-electrodomestico-estrellainiciativa-espeng) thanks to a kind invitation from my friend @annafenix. I thought I wouldn't have a chance to participate, but my friends in the community explained that I did have a chance, because they extended it, which I loved, thank you. So I'd like to take this opportunity to also invite @actioncats, @yole, and @tonyes to join us in participating. Let's get down to business: my star appliance, without a doubt, is the washing machine. I know this for a fact because I've experienced not having one, and in fact, the one I have now is a Siragon automatic, and as you can see in my photos, it's relatively new because my old washing machine, an Electrolux automatic, kept breaking down. We would repair it, and it would last for a while until it finally gave up. At that time, we couldn't afford to buy a new one, so we had to save up to buy the one we have now.
Durante ese tiempo sin lavadora, me toco visitar diferentes lavanderías, cuestión que es bastante costoso, ya que procuraba tener ropa suficiente para justificar ese gasto y para aquel tiempo gastaba entre 15 y 20 $, dependiendo de lo que cobraran, afortunadamente tenemos carro y era menos engorroso, pero a veces me tocaba sola ir a la lavandería, entonces eso eran bolsos full de ropa de ida y vuelta a pie, era un estrés para mí. Cuando pudimos comprar la lavadora, mi esposo y yo nos sentimos realizados, respiramos y todos en casa.
Porque eso de lavar a mano, porque nos tocó también, quita mucho tiempo y es bastante cansado, teniendo que dejar de lado otros quehaceres. Ahora para mí todo es tranquilidad, porque cuando se tienen adolescentes, la ropa florece en el cesto de la ropa sucia y ahora simplemente programo mi lavadora le coloco su detergente, suavizante y a otra cosa calabaza ja, ja, ja, entonces tengo muchas razones para elegirla como reina de la casa y no solamente yo, sino que a mi pequeño gato también le encanta, porque le fascina meterse en el tambor de la lavadora, al menor descuido, tengo evidencias ja, ja, ja
Pero tengo en mente, volver a comprar un aire acondicionado, porque con los vaporones de este clima, lo anhelo bastante. Porque tuve un Split de 12 BTU nuevo de paquete, que no llegamos a instalar, ya que lo tenía guardado esperando instalarlo debidamente, pero en ese tiempo, tuvimos una emergencia familiar y tuvimos que venderlo, así es que me quedé con las ganas de poder instalarlo y disfrutarlo. Esa es nuestra nueva meta electrodoméstica. Bueno amigos, fue un placer compartir con ustedes, ¡saludos!
During that time without a washing machine, I had to visit different laundromats, which was quite expensive, since I tried to have enough clothes to justify that expense, and at that time I spent between $15 and $20, depending on what they charged. Fortunately, we have a car, so it was less of a hassle, but sometimes I had to go to the laundromat alone, so that meant bags full of clothes back and forth on foot, which was stressful for me. When we were able to buy the washing machine, my husband and I felt fulfilled, we breathed a sigh of relief, and everyone at home did too.
Because washing by hand, which we also had to do, takes a lot of time and is quite tiring, having to put other chores aside. Now everything is peaceful for me, because when you have teenagers, clothes pile up in the laundry basket, and now I just program my washing machine, put in the detergent and fabric softener, and move on to something else, ha ha. Ha ha, so I have many reasons to choose it as the queen of the house, and not only me, but my little cat also loves it, because he loves to get into the washing machine drum at the slightest opportunity. I have evidence, ha ha ha.
But I have in mind to buy an air conditioner again, because with the humidity of this climate, I really want one. I had a new 12 BTU split unit that we never got around to installing, since I had it stored away waiting to be properly installed, but at that time, we had a family emergency and had to sell it, so I was left with the desire to install it and enjoy it. That is our new appliance goal. Well, friends, it was a pleasure to share with you, cheers!
