Genius Bar Day

Turned out to be a day of repairs. First I took Rich’s iMac in so the optical drive could be replaced. Shock of shocks, Apple had it finished and ready for pick up that afternoon. Same day. I’m still kind of stunned. Then I managed to avert a major crisis by resurrecting the washer. Rich called me downstairs around 7 distressed that the unit wouldn’t spin. Same problem we experienced a couple of months ago. The repair guy told me it was just a reset button on the motor. So I spun the unit around and opened up the back. Couldn’t find any button though. Discouraged I closed it up and rotated it back into place. Double checked the pump to rule out any obstructions. Found nothing. Then tried a trial run. The drum turned. Not sure how I fixed it but maybe it will hold this time.
