Monday we headed for Carson City to pick up the refrigerator I ordered. We decided to stop at Betsy's Big Kitchen first and have some breakfast. That way we'd only have 2 meals for the day and I would get out of cooking breakfast. Win for me! Delicious as always.
We got to Home Depot and boy were they busy. We picked up some electrical things we needed and looked at a few things. Headed for their pick up area and then a little while later we met up with Mark and pushed the fridge to the parking lot. They want you only to park in one place and that didn't work for us so we got it out there by ourselves. We like Lowe's so much better! Found the perfect spot for Cheryl's gift 💕
After that we headed home and unloaded it. Ken still had time to work some on the electrical. We headed for Karen's later for Happy Hour. 🍷🍺
Perfect size for what we want... |
Ken called to order rock on the way home. Talk about sticker shock Patsy! We had ordered some about 2 years ago then it was $530.00 a load, which equals about 25 tons. Well, $1034.00 for the same load! She did ask if we still wanted it, but we need to have it , so yes. It'll be delivered on Friday. 😱😱
Tuesday morning we spent spraying the weeds that have popped up again. About an hour and a half or so. We did it a couple of months ago but then two days later we had rain and little weeds started popping up again. I've hula hoed a lot, but not in the rock areas. We've had so much wind since then we had to wait for a non windy morning.
After that Ken spent the rest of the day doing the outlets in the kitchen and seeing where he wants to tie in under the house.
Took a short CanAm ride up the hill..Lovely field of yellow weeds down below! |
Total of 6 outlets and a switch.. |
Today he got it tied in with success! We have electrical now!
I got some things ready to leave tomorrow. Russell called and said Aaron's been sick this week and home from school, so we'll see what the rest of the week holds. Hopefully he's on the up and up!
Happy Hour over at Karen's one more time.
Well, didn't get this posted last night so getting this done Thursday morning. Time to read some blogs and get on the road. Have a great day! I know I will because I'll be seeing a grandson! 💙😁
Boy do I love that fridge!!!!! The rock ... good grief!! Double the price is a little overkill, don't you think? I don't mind paying for fuel, but geez!! That kitchen ... you're going to end up doing ALL your cooking out there!!
ReplyDeleteThanks I love it too! Ken was ready to put it in the house kitchen, but we need a bigger one in there! Yep, it's ridiculous on the rock.
DeleteYour fridge is so pretty! I'm sure it got wrapped in a blanket for the ride home. :)
ReplyDeleteSticker shock is right! That's terrible!
Have a fun time!
Thanks Patsy. Actually was in a box that was in perfect shape and tied up with a ratchet strap! It is horrible! Love spending time with my grandson :)
DeleteThat refrigerator is awesome. I'm getting excited to see the finished kitchen. I bet you are super excited. Safe travels! Elva 🥰
ReplyDeleteI am excited for sure!
DeleteOmg living the dream! What a beautiful view! That fridge is adorable! I wanted to buy that one too, but then they were out of stock and now we don’t have the spot for it. Lol!! Love your adventures. What a treasure for us all!! 💕

ReplyDeleteAww..thanks Lisa! I think it was easier to sign in before, but this works just fine :) Glad you like the fridge :) Yep, lucked out they had it in stock and on sale to boot! You are just too sweet! :)
DeleteBeautiful fridge! I bet you cannot wait to see it filled with beverages!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jim! It's already had a couple of beers in there, just to make sure the fridge is cold! LOL.
DeletePerfect sized Fridge for your kitchen.
ReplyDeleteThe rising costs are all reflective of the high cost of fuel.
Be Safe and Enjoy!
It's about time.
Yes, I think it will be perfect in there! Fuel is ridiculous! I know you know that as Canada is worse than here. CA is running about $6.29 a gallon, of course that was yesterday could be more today!
DeleteHi. I'm back. I don't what happened somebody must have fixed something ....lol.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are back!!
DeleteI don’t comment often,sorry, but I do read your blog
ReplyDeleteregularly and enjoy it greatly !
Was wondering if you have pack rats there in your
area and if they may attempt to make a home in your
beautiful refrigerator? I have read about so many campers
having trouble with them in their motors.
Your going to have a wonderful kitchen, lots of envy. Lol

We have what we call kangaroo rats, probably the same thing. We don't have a lot of them but according to hubby it's a genuine concern we'll have to keep an eye out. Thank you for reading and thank you for caring. :) Glad you are liking the kitchen!
