Jar of Goodness 2.27.22: New Fridge

. . . The weekly virtual “gratitude jar.”

This week, I’m expressing thanks for finally getting our new refrigerator!

Although in this case, it’s more of a hella-frickin’-looya. Sometimes "gratitude" looks mostly like, "Jeez, I sure am glad that's over!!!"

And it had taken so long, I was starting to think “Well, maybe we don’t really need a refrigerator in our kitchen. Maybe it’s fine just using the one downstairs.”

So yeah, after our old one died in early November, we finally have our new fridge.

As it was, the delivery guys murdered the woodwork on our staircase as they bumped and crashed our old refrigerator down to the front door. We need to get out our wood putty and fix it up soon, because it makes me nauseated to see it. Here's the worst gouge:

So, if you’re getting a new appliance, I recommend hiring actual professional movers to do the moving. Don’t trust the appliance company people at all. I do think that’s the “take-home point.” Or, better yet, get yourself and a good friend on a weightlifting program, so by the time your fridge arrives, you can move it yourself. Okay? Word to the wise.

ANYWAY, at least we have the fridge now, and cooking doesn’t necessarily involve traipsing up and down staircases anymore.
