AGreed! My front loader will do a HUGE king sized comforter, and have room to spare. As long as I can close the door, I can wash! I love my front loader because I dont have to stand over the top of the machine. I can sit in a chair and shove things in. its also a great water saver. Many top loaders can fit a huge load as well. I got the previous years model from Sears, and got a great deal since they were making way for the newer steam machines. I dont need steamers, so I made out.

Alffe, we have some bus here as big a mice!

I'm such a coward too....I will run & hide, like they will chase me or somethin stupid! Sweet cats bring us critters all the time. A few days ago we had a bird flying all around the house with me trying to catch it, the 3 cats trying, & also the 3 dogs!!!! Mom yas yellin the whole time,,,don't LET them kill it!

If I get my gazebo, if figure the bugs can have their space, I'll have mine! I\ll let ya know how THAT works out...lol

Almost forgot....duh...don't FROGS eat bugs????
