Deja vu all over again.....
Sept. 9th -- I have been away for the last few days to escape the chaos of the construction zone. When I do escape for a few days, it is often to have fun outdoors, be with friends, and sleep in an actual bed. These days away have been a wonderful respite and most of the time I am able to NOT think of what is happening in the construction zone.
It has also been the case that just about every time I go away, something less than desirable happens (e.g., phone and electricity cut; no power to the refrigerator).
Yet again, I came home after being away for four days to find that there is no power to the refrigerator. That is bad enough, but what is worse is being faced with yet again having to clean out the rotting food and mess.
This time the window installers get the credit/blame -- for whatever reason, they unplugged the refrigerator so that they could plug in their compressors to remove the old windows and install the new ones. Why on earth they did not plug the refrigerator power cord back into the outlet when they removed their compressors is beyond me. The contractor speculated that they are not used to working where people are actually living. Whatever....
The only good thing about this latest episode of powerless refrigerator is that there wasn't as much food in there this time compared to last time, so it didn't take that long to clean up. Nevertheless, this is really getting old. With an out of town trip coming up, I certainly hope that this turn of events will NOT happen yet a third time. Keep your fingers crossed for me.
