Dishwasher is fixed!

I haven't been cooking or eating anything interesting of late.  A large part of that has been my late work schedule, which means I don't get home until 6:30-7PM, which is rather late to start cooking.  Another big part of the problem was the leak in my dishwasher--a pretty bad leak I might add.  I awoke in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and decided to get a glass of water.  I walked into a huge puddle of water in the kitchen.  Needless to say, I spent some time cleaning it up that night.  The dishwasher has been down for a while now, but finally I was able to fix it.  The help I needed came from the internet in the form of this webpage.  Before this my dishwasher wouldn't drain, so I searched and found that there is a stopper in the back of the dishwasher--easily accessed from the inside--that was the culprit.  My repair involved replacing the pump connector, but I also have a minor leak from the pump shaft seal and the parts are on order.  It is a pleasure to have the dishwasher back--the minor leak will be repaired but for the time being it is totally manageable.
