I CREATED A SPACE....

Yesterday I got the bright idea to move the double fridge/freezer from the garage to the kitchen/family room.   I was so tired of traipsing up and down the stairs every time I wanted something out of the bigger fridge.  


So, I moved the PC into Steve's room (that took all afternoon) and made a space for the fridge/freezer:




ABOVE:  Then all the guys had to do was empty and bring it up!  No mean feat, that thing weighs a lot!




ABOVE:  YES, Steve is a fool.  But we love him, so he gets away with it. lol



ABOVE: I'm told the ONLY thing to go on this shelf is beer.  We. will. see.




ABOVE: Taaa daaa... all done.  And that makes me very happy.  Over summer we have so much more fresh salad veges, and the smaller fridge/freezer in the kitchen was just not big enough for everything.  Now it's all in the one room, so handy.


TODAY:  I'm off to Hospice shop. I'm told it's been a very busy week so far, which is neat.  I hope it's busy today... I love being busy.


ONWARD...


Well... work was indeed busy today!  AND I found some more treasure:




ABOVE:  see, lots!   I think I am collecting jugs!  I can't resist the cute little glass ones!  And when they are only a couple of dollars each, I just have to buy them!


NOW I just have to find somewhere to put them.  *frowns*


Time to relax for a little while, have some lunch and watch some mindless tv programme that has been taped..


End of Day:  we had pork chops, salad and a spud for dinner.  I have been dishing up way, way less than I usually do lately, and it feels so good to know I'm not helping kill the family by over feeding them!  lol
I have decided Stew and I will start with Weight Watchers TOGETHER after the New Year.  It's madness to expect anyone to 'diet' right now!  But, I am watching our portions.  Steve (son) has even said he wants to lose a bit of weight as he has put on about 20 kilos since moving home!
Whoops, my fault.  A mother just wants to feed her kids eh?
Right, off to do some more mindless TV watching.  
nite nite.

  4. Good idea for summer. Our big one is the same as yours and doesn't fit in the kitchen. Ours is staying in the shed though!

  7. I just love your Steve! Some gal is going to be So very lucky one of these days.

    I do know these things are HEAVY -when ours broke down lately it took EVERY BIT OF STRENGTH that DH and I had to pull that monster out of its space to work on it. It was HORRIBLE and my back complained terribly. ! :)
    I could just hug your DFellows for being so good about it. I guess they figure as good as you cook - they will do everything in their power to keep you happy! : )

  14. Weight Watchers (or similar) for us in the New Year too. I have type 2 diabetes so very important to lose weight. Since my husband took early retirement we have gained over 5st between us and it has to go.............

  15. Love the glassware. Good thing you have two strong men to move your stuff all around. Things are constantly changing place in your home. Enjoy the convenience of having the fridge closer.
