On Friday I reported about my dying refrigerator and the anticipation of a new one one Saturday. Well, you know what they say. The universe laughs when you make plans.

So apparently does HoDe’s delivery service.

They were supposed to call on Friday to let us know the 5 hour delivery window. Instead, they called and left a message saying that because of demand, they  didn’t have the appliance in stock and it won’t be available for delivery until Thursday.

Which meant a mad scramble on Saturday, to defrost the old one to see if we could get the fridge to cool down. But a loss of all perishables and now we have 2 ice chests with the bare necessities with more trips to the store to buy ice to keep things cold.

On the bright side, I suppose there is an eco-friendliness to the who thing. Not!

Ah well, now I just have to rearrange my work schedule so I can be here on Thursday for the delivery. Score! I get a vacation day.

Until next time!
