Ok, who's the wiseguy that sent me Murphy?
In the past month our water softner, tv (last week) and as of last night our 13 yr. old refrigerator died.
Was up at midnight moving stuff from the big fridge to an old old (not very energy effecient) small one we usually leave unplugged and only use for soda & beer when there is a get together. Somehow we crammed it all in there so didn't lose any thing there. Have veggies in a cooler because they wouldn't fit.
I loved that fridge, it was all fridge except for this little corner that held 3 ice cube trays & square ice bucket. Needs to be a special size no more than
67"h 31w 29d. Very hard to find especially with the amount of fridge I want & not in white. Boohoo.
Hope this is it for things kicking the bucket, my pile for a dump trip is big enough & the wallet is screaming uncle.
Tuiton & books due next month, yeehaw.

Sorry to hear of the Murphy visit. That really stinks. If you do find another fridge in your size range, and it's not the right color, remember you can always paint it. Hope Murphy makes a quick exit from you.

Well, Darlene, as you know, Murphy was residing in my plumbing most of the winter. I HOPE he has moved on, but certainly didn't mean to send him your way. When you kick him out, send him westward. (Or north- I don't care as long as you don't send him back my way.)
Did the plumber ever work out?
