New refrig
Yea!!! I have a new refrigerator. Our old one was working ok , minus an icemaker, until I opened up the freezer door and the plastic seal that separates the refrig from the freezer broke. I didn't think much about it until the next morning I found all my newly perchased fresh produce frozen hard as a rock. Lettuce does not freeze well!! =-}
Rick and I decided to check out the Sears outlet store at the "scratch and dent" items. I found the refirg I had been hoping to own someday. It has the freezer on the bottom and double doors at the top. It Has An Icemaker!! WOHOO!! =-)
We decided to get it, but had to arrange for someone to deliver it for us as this store doesn't offer that service. It took serveral phone calls, but Rick finally found someone to handle the "big black box" for us.
I love it. It has so much room and ties in much better than the old frig did.
Speaking of the old frig.. we had the guys put it out by the curb hoping someone would want it. This was Thursday night. At 1:00 in the AM (Friday) I suddenly realized Many people do the weekend garage hunts and start early to seek out thie r "treasures". So I got up, made a sign stating that the frig worked ok and all the screws for the door were in a bag in one of the drawers. You haul it. FREE
At 8AM someone stopped with their pickup truck and hauled that baby away. WOHOO
Rick said my $25 sign worked.( It would have cost us $25 to get a city sticker for the trash guys to haul it off.)
We also got a sizable check back from our morgage co. for overpayment of our escrow account so that was also a pleasant blessing to help cover the cost we were not expecting.
Funny thing is this is not the only thing that has "fallen apart" in the last 2 weeks. The control pannel on my oven is not working right and we found out they don't make that panel anymore, and the ceiling fan in our room quit the other day. Rick had replaced the fan and found a company that will possible work on the curcuit board of the oven control panel. I will just be minus the use of my oven for a time(not that it gets much use, but I will miss it) Yeah for microwave ovens!!!

Congratulations on your new fridge! I wouldn't worry too much about the oven if I were you..if it gets fixed then Rick will expect you to cook and who wants to do that?
