Do You Believe in Angels?

There is nothing more frustrating than an appliance problem... and nothing more satisfying than getting the problems fixed and restoring equilibrium to our part of the planet.

I called this morning and got the good word that the repairs were complete and we could pick up our fridge.  There were 5 guys who unloaded this beast... but just three guys loaded it onto our truck today.

We were so happy to get this fridge home without incident... but not without a good scare!  Coming down the Pat Bay Highway to catch the ferry Shirley told me that it looked like the fridge was tipping over.  I looked in the mirror and sure enough... it was leaning back a fair bit.   Wind resistance at 90 kph was pushing it over... and only the rope and an angel kept it from flipping it over in the back of the truck.  Wow, was that a close call.  I quickly slowed down and the fridge came back down onto all fours.  I think our guardian angels were back there keeping that fridge from crashing over.

I chose to back the truck up our driveway from Tinker.... about one kilometre.  Didn't want the beast to slide back or fall over on our steep hill.  Once  home it was pretty easy to get the fridge onto the tractor bucket extension and deliver it to the front door.

We knew we had to take off the front door to get it thru without a hassle...

And it wasn't very long after getting home before we had it plugged in and starting to cool.  Life is now back to normal at our house.  PTL!

Now I am waiting to see if the hardwood dries out and returns to it's previous flat look.  Only time will tell.

"These things I warmly wish for you.
Someone to love, 
Some work to do,
A bit of sun, 
A bit o' cheer,
And a guardian angel always near."
