bye bye 86

17 suffolk is slowly creeping out of the 80's.
today the 'rents came over to help me install the new refrigerator and the new(old) dryer. I no longer have the MONSTER fridge or the squuuuueeeeeeky dryer.
yipee.

first we cleaned out from behind and under the dryer... i found the roll of stamps i've been looking for since february! then we installed the new dryer it's pretty old looking but it doesn't squeek!
Then we moved the old clunker fridge. EWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.
It was disgusting under there. I mean... pure filth I don;t think its EVER been cleaned. Maybe a few times when we lived here as kids because i remember vaccuming it with mommy. the coils were also COVERED in dust bunnies. Derv told me that thing was prob sucking the electric bill because of how hard it had to work since there was so much filth on the coils. Oops.
So larrahn and I used a spatula to scrape the crap off the floor. Gross.
When we were done we tore apart the old dryer. No diamond. :( doh well. It was cool to yank apart though......
What makes me sad is that i somehow lost the apparatus magnet. so i had to replace it with peach. sweet peach. hmmmm.

there's some fake wood floor on sale at Home Depot for 97 cents a square foot. may be worth getting for the house!! i know you all were talking about it. it's in the front of the store and there's a ton of the flooring as of Saturday so, go take a look!!!

don't go too cheapo with fake wood flooring. I've learned from the floors here that it can be bad news. These are bottom of the barrel cheap and they can't tolerate ANY liquid (even to clean the floor!) and they scratch if you so much as look at them.

Sounds like the place is lookin' good, though. too bad you lost the apparatus! Peach is pretty funny, too, though. Hooray for no squeaky dryer and for a new fridge. Is the freezer on the bottom or top?
