The Fridge Has Landed

The long-awaited new fridge arrived on Saturday. I have been a little busy, transferring the contents of the old, cleaning up and getting rid of the inevitable "science projects," the ones in the back that escaped notice until EVERYTHING was taken out and inspected.

I seem to have an inordinate number of "condiments." Three different kinds of salsa, 12 different mustards, 4 barbeque sauces, 4 kinds of mayo, 6 jars of jam and 4 bottles of syrups, 5 types of mysterious Oriental enhancers like wasabi, hoisin, onagi, teriyaki, etc. 7 salad dressings. 4 jars of pickles. Tubes of Italian tomato paste and German mustard. Eye drops that expired 10/05. Yes, it was definitely time for a clean out.

There is room for everything and room to spare. Happiness.

Today, Bill flies to Ft. Lauderdale to start his classes tomorrow. I will follow tomorrow afternoon, after I take Echo over to be boarded at the vet's in the morning. She will not like being "put in jail," but this is the best solution we could come up with, as the school does not allow pets. Perhaps I could pass her off as a "service animal," if only she were trained better. Sigh.

It is snowing lightly today, a perfect incentive for a trip to Florida.
