Wednesday

I woke up very early as I was excited that RR was coming home. My contribution for our Thanksgiving dinner is dressing, two dips, veggies and chips. That is a lot of chopping and dicing. Get out the electric skillet, now it comes to the great decision; bacon grease or butter, I have both. I’m not going to tell which I used as the kids may just read this one. I’ll never hear the end of that. Since I do not have an oven I will need to bake the cornbread in two batches, cause my little toaster oven only does so much. This year I did purchase pre-made bread stuffing to add, so much easier than drying bread as Mom did.

Back to the chopping and dicing, I am about half way through when the rain storm came in and that is about the time our fridge started beeping at me. I give it a dirty look, that did not work, now what? First off, this is NOT my job, it is RR’s and how rude of the Fridge to do this NOW. I turn it off for a minute and back on, nope still making a beeping noise. Play with the other buttons, nope, so now it is time to find the manual. Once again, this is not my job. Find that stupid code flashing at me, where oh where in this book do they hide these codes!?! Finally, I found it, just as our neighbor comes to the door to help. So he does all the stuff I did plus check all the fuses. I did not think of that one. Plus, he goes outside in the rain to the back of the box to see if there is a problem there, nope. Meanwhile back at the airport, RR is getting off the plane and I am not on my way to pick him up. UH OH! I find the code and it says, not something an owner can fix. Really!!! What the heck does that mean, neighbor looks a me and said, “That is not good”.

I finally pick my loving husband up off the corner of I-45 and Airport Blvd, 1 hour late, he is so happy!! Needless to say he did not check his messages on the phone when he landed so he thought I forgot. Silly Man.

Long story short, we have purchased a new fridge that will hold more stuff and get cold enough to freeze food and ice-cream. Delivery is set for this Thursday and guess what we are having Friday for breakfast – Blue Bell!
