An INCH of water in the laundry room?

Want to talk about PANICKING! I even woke Tim up (works nights)...we've had to listen for the spin cycle of our washer and then lift up the lid, hold it open a few seconds and then close it again for the spin cycle to kick in. Today I did a load and all the water drained out of the bottom of the washing machine....I had to mop it up and then Tim asked if I'd tried to put it on a spin cycle to spin the water out and through the drain (obviously I had NOT)...so I woke him up for nothing because I was a dunce and panicked instead of using my head. Fortunately, at least I think so, I thought to shut off the water at the spigots so at least no new water was draining out of the washer.

For the record, it's an Amana 3.2 cu ft top load washer model # NTW5245TQ. We bought it at Lowe's in February. The spin cycle problem started about 3 months after we got it (late May). Fortunately for me, the paperwork pack rat I saved the receipt and the books and tomorrow I'll be able to call them (Maytag) and there's 1 year parts and labor warranty on the washer so hopefully whatever the problem is that'll fix it. *crossing fingers*

Now, it's almost 5:30pm, J is hungry, G is munching on Craisins and hollering because she's full of hot air (aka gas!)...what to cook for dinner? I'm tempted to call Mikey's Pizza and get an XL pizza delivered. Alas, gotta get sneaks for the dh so perhaps pizzas in the toaster oven? LOL

So much for todays drama...
