New Things

This time of year is full of holiday activities and lots of spending on gifts, but it's also a great time to find killer deals on big ticket items. Our refrigerator was going down hill, so we found a fantastic deal on a new one. We were going to give our old one to DTE for a $50 check, but they were booked until January. Luckily, our good friends from church suddenly needed a fridge because theirs broke, so they helped us take our old one out, which still works, but might be done for in a couple of years. Now they have a free fridge, for now, and we put our new one in, which had been sitting in our garage since Thanksgiving until we could decide what to do with the old one. It was a win-win situation.

It's pretty much the same as our other one, but the ice maker will be more reliable, the freezer will be a little colder, and all the drawers will work a little better!

A while ago, we (or I should say Jason) researched companies to replace our shower. It was an old mold fest. I couldn't keep it clean, no matter how much I cleaned it! We found someone and got a pretty good deal. That was being completed when our friends came to get the old fridge, so we had two big jobs going on at the same time. It's been busy and messy, but now it's done and was worth it!

After the first day. Sorry, no before pictures. I couldn't stand to take a picture of that mold fest!

After the second day.

New fan that actually does its job. 



After the third day. It's very nice!
