Breaking Dishwasher News!
The new dishwasher is broken. A defective unit with flashing lights and ringing bells indicating a bad power supply assembly.
I had to push very hard, but Lowe’s has agreed to a return and refund. I’m waiting for a call from the distribution center to schedule a pickup. The one good thing to happen from this mess was the electrician installed a new, low-profile power connection.

Price Pain Point
I bought the now-dead KitchenAid dishwasher six years ago for $600. According to the BLS, that’s equivalent to $750 today. There’s been a 25% increase in the overall cost of living in just six years. No wonder Biden isn’t convincing the general public the economy has improved.
The Craftiness of the Deal
What are the odds that Musk will float Trump for the $464 million he needs to post bond? I’m guessing they’re better than 50/50. It must be galling to Donald, being in such a weak position that he will likely have to accept non-negotiable terms on a deal.
Dishwasher Update
I am waiting for the electrician or someone like him. He should be here this afternoon. The plan is to make the hole in the floor large enough to drop the junction box, then run the cable up to the new dishwasher.
Note the water damage on the floor in the second picture. I came home from one of my numerous Phoenix trips and saw water streaks on the wall downstairs in the finished basement. The Bosch dishwasher had sprung a leak, and it was replaced with the Kitchenaid that is now itself being replaced.
