New Fridge

Posted on by ModGirl

So when hubs came home last night we sat there and talked about the problem with the fridge and the way they wouldn’t set it up for us. He told me how when he stopped at Lowes before going back to work that the lady did indeed say that they would come back either yesterday or today to finish there job.

So, when they never showed up yesterday hubs told me to contact them online and see if they were still coming tomorrow. Well the guy I was talking to in the online chat said no appointment had been made to come back. Well, when I learned that I asked when would they be able to return and he told me on Friday. Okay, so I got off the chat and told hubs what the guy told me. Now at this point he was steaming and told me to hand him the phone. He called Lowes and talked to someone in charge and told them what was going on. And he told them if they couldn’t send anyone out today to finish the setup, that he would set up the fridge himself.

So, the guy on the phone told him he would contact the people who make the service calls for Lowes and see what was going on and he would call him back. Now, a little while later he finally gets a call back and apparently they removed our appointment for today and changed it to Friday. So, hubs told the guy that he had had enough and would set it up himself BUT he was expecting some money back for having to do it himself. Considering the fact that they had agreed to set it up before but never finished the job. The guy agreed and said we would get credit on our account for the setup fee. A $200 dollar credit would be added to our account.

After he hung up the phone I told him, it all sounded nice but as usual nothing ever good happens later. It’s usually just broken promises. So I went to bed and laid there for a few minutes and heard hubs making all kinds of noise so I got up and saw that he had already removed the old fridge and was moving the new fridge to the kitchen, No tools to help him. Just his strength was all and I was telling him he should stop and get someone to help him tomorrow. But he was stubborn and determined to do it himself. After he got the water line connected he moved the fridge into the cubby hole and I spent an hour removing the plastic from all the drawers and door handles. The door handles were a PITA to get done because the plastic was vacuum sealed to the metal and it was crazy trying to remove it.

Finally, the fridge was set up and I started moving everything from the coolers back to the fridge. Lots of food items had to be tossed from water filling up inside them. But the rest was okay and we were good to go. Now he said that Friday when they showed up that they would find the old fridge on the porch and stuffed inside was going to be all that packing material he removed from the new fridge, lol. So, this morning as I sat here at my computer I decided to check my email and guess what? I received an email from Lowes letting me know that the receipt for the new fridge had changed. We were indeed getting a $200 credit for the setup and installation fee we were charged. Yee Haw! As soon as hubs gets up he will be happy to hear that!

I am so happy he set up the new fridge and it’s already making ice this morning. it’s so cold inside I might need to change the setting because I don’t want all the food frozen, lol. Anyway, I just thought I would let you know what happened with our new fridge. Have a great day today and hugs,

How’s Your Day Going?

Posted on by ModGirl

My day started out fine. On Labor Day we were going to go to the beach to look for a new fridge. Instead we decided to go to our local Lowes Improvement Store. We found a nice fridge and dished out lots of money for it, and they said they would deliver it today, set it up and then take the old one. That made us so happy. So, when the truck pulled up today with our new fridge I was so excited UNTIL…. One of the guys helping me pull out the fridge say’s they can’t set it up because we didn’t disconnect the water line to the ice maker.

When I said they could do it themselves he said, “No, we’re not allowed to do that.” So he said that he could leave the new fridge here and when we were ready to set it up to call them AFTER we had the water line disconnected. And I told him that I would disconnect it myself and he said I couldn’t do that either and we needed to call a plumber to disconnect the line.

Are you with me so far? Good. Because as soon as he told me that I called hubs at work and told him what was happening. He was NOT happy at all and told the guy on the phone to just disconnect the line because it was easy to do. He refused. Now, they left the new fridge sitting in the living room and the old fridge is still sitting in the kitchen.

Okay, so I called hubs back at his job and his boss tells me that he’s on his way home. So, he gets here and starts yelling at me for not keeping them here longer. Well, why are they going to stay when they already told me they couldn’t disconnect the water line? He was so mad. But he finally calmed down and said on his way back to work that he was stopping at Lowes to make sure they get our fridge setup today.

A few minutes ago I get a call from him and he said the lady at Lowes told him that she would see if they could do it today but not to expect them until tomorrow. In the mean time, Our fridge is sitting there right in my way in front of the stove.

I can’t believe those guys couldn’t unhook a simple water line from the back of the fridge. It would have taken only 2 seconds to do that. Wow. That’s all I can say. So, that’s how my day is going. How about yours? Anyway, thanks for stopping by and hugs,

Updating my posts

Posted on by ModGirl

This morning I woke up and started doing one of my usual tasks on my computer. I decided to update all the posts on my site and delete some that were no longer needed. You know, those posts letting you know about one of my sites that I recently updated or something along those lines, lol.  There is no need to have any posts letting you know a site has been updated if the site is no longer online, RIGHT? Yeah, that’s what I thought too so that’s why I decided to remove some posts and update a lot more of them.

Anyway, I am working on some new graphics for my paid members area. Awhile back I was creating some super hero type images and then I thought about making some Harley Quinn and Joker images. So, that’s what I’m doing right now. I have already created all the Harley Quinn images and now I’m working on the Joker. I really like how these images are turning out and as soon as I can, I will create a tag or 2 using these images.

So, we got the floor in the bathroom finished and omg, it looks so nice. But, as luck would have it, now our refrigerator is trying to quit on us. Yesterday it started making this beeping sound so I would have to open the door and hit the reset button on it. Now every few minutes the temperature goes from 33 to 50 degrees and each time it does that it starts making that beeping sound.  All night long I kept hearing that beeping sound and this morning since I reset it the last time, it stopped beeping but the temperature still keeps fluctuating  from 33 to 50 degrees.

Anyway, hubs said we should take a drive to the beach today and start looking for a new fridge because he thinks it’s about ready to quit working. And I agree completely. I opened the orange juice and made me a glass this morning and it was not very cold at all. I just hope all the food inside the fridge stays okay until we can replace it. But I don’t like these temperatures and it keeps jumping from low to high every few minutes.

Okay, I think that about does it for today. I will let you know what happens with the fridge later, lol. Yup, you probably are interested in that tidbit huh? LOL! Take care and hugs,
