Stimulating the Economy

Saturday I decided I'd had it! The carpet in the family room HAD TO GO! I've had it cleaned but there's only so much you can do with contractor grade carpet, especially when it's light beige and you live with a dog, a husband and two kids who seldom if never wipe their feet. So yeah, NEW CARPET!

Saturday I picked out the color and style and yesterday my husband and his buddy went and purchased the amount we needed for the room.

Today, our refrigerator broke!

New carpet and a new refrigerator all in the same week?
It's like I won the lottery... Except I didn't and now that little 'nest egg' we've been slowly building upon has toppled out of the tree and now lays broken and oozing all over the patio of our life... However, did I mention I'm getting soft cushy fresh new carpeting and a big shiny new fridge?

Yay Embee! I've been threatening to help my refrigerator along myself ;)

Hey K&K... You quite obviously haven't priced refrigerators lately.

New stuff is fun--even if it breaks the bank a little! Enjoy!
