Beth, when I replaced the refrigerator in my 2002 motorhome I found one from Home Depot that was almost a perfect fit side to side and was about an inch short. It was a Summit 8 cu ft refrigerator. I had to order it. The only problem was they had to take out a side window to get the old refrigerator out and the new one in. One good thing about a house refrigerator, they cool off a lot faster than the RV ones. Sorry you had so much trouble getting things running. At least they paid for the convertor.

Another day waiting for vehicle repair but this time it is a new water heater and front furnace motor. This place starts at 7:15 am but at least they will be done by 2:30 pm.
Tomorrow at least I can sleep in.

Was going to get flu shot but waiting to ask doctor if I should wait until he starts treatment for weak immune system.

Good afternoon. Played Bunco today and won $5 it would have been $10 but had to split it with another player as we had the same scores. Was a fun afternoon. Just finished dinner and now ready to watch the tube. Judy glad you are getting everything fixed. Hope you have some good info from your doc. Beth sorry you had such a rough landing yesterday. Hope everything is getting fixed to your satisfaction. Sheila glad you had a good trip home. I love a good road trip but then always good to get home. Managed to peddle 3 bags of tomatoes today YAY ME
They are just about finished so will be pulling them out soon. Supposed to get some rain tomorrow which is a good thing. Predicting some snow in the mountains here. Nothing major just a start to hopefully a good snow pack again this year.

So I have started watching another show, didnt know if I would like it but it has 2 seasons and I am starting on season one and it isnt bad. Season 2 just started so I can watch it in between my other shows.

Martha, unfortunately, that brand doesn't have that size now so I can't even tell if it would have fit. I have a few that should be fairly easy to get to fit if one of the guys who are coming to take out the fridge is willing to do a little cutting. I don't think it'll be a problem but I'll know for sure when this fridge is removed and I see for sure there is a few inches of available space above the top of the current fridge. As soon as I find that out one of the guys might even pick up one of the fridges. We shall see. I went to the store associated with the guy who came out and worked yesterday. I purchased a plug for the gas line or we couldn't disconnect the fridge safely. And I paid what was my portion of yesterday's bill. No complaints as it was quite reasonable.

Karen, it seems bunco comes up frequently. I'm glad you're enjoying it. And good going with the tomatoes. Sheila, so glad you had a good trip and are home safely. Sorry you didn't get to see Anita and get the Roomba. Judy, seems like you have good doctors, especially when the one took notes while you were saying what was happening. I hope you get some good answers. And I hope your RV maintenence is done for awhile.

I'm making a mess inside to be prepared for making more of a mess to remove the fridge. I did basic cleaning yesterday and will do better after the old fridge is gone and new one in. I stopped at the store and got a couple frozen items. Had one for dinner and put the egg roll in the rec hall freezer and plan it'll be tomorrow's lunch. I think I'll be due for a weeks sleep soon.

one thing I wanted to do was go to the "rain forest" youngest replied back which one (was texting before we went) since I didn't know of any other's I wanted to go to the one way west or assume that it is west... dd#3 wanted to go to La Push we could see the ocean there thought about going to second beach but walked down to the signs and round trip would have been a long walk for me some down hill so we drove back over to the area above the beach and the kids went down to the ocean ... again two steep and rocky but I could see the beach and watch the kids... saw a bird still not sure what it was... a good size bird tannish/brownish in coloring I thought the beak was black but could have been wrong ... tried to get close enough to take a picture but wasn't able to size wise more the size of a young eagle hawk type so a good size bird... then we went to Hoh Rain Forest but it was closed when we got there closes at 5 my youngest had researched it thought that there was a driveable place.... if it wasn't the road going in it was closed... the kids took a hike but getting too dark for me to venture out... it was amazing to see the moss on the trees... so really were loaded... the lesson learned here was go to the forest first it may be closed where the beaches might not be but then dd#3 might not have seen the "eye candy" try explaining that term to a 5 year old
of course that was a long drive and home to dd's late we saw some beautiful scenery it is a beautiful state...
I was able to see my sister from another mother she is doing well and her husband who almost died on us awhile back is doing so well he was up climbing on his roof the next day... when I saw that I just shacked my head he wanted to get the pine needles off the roof... MEN!!! the man has Parkinson's.... but they do say other things will kill them first perhaps a fall off the roof??? anyway had a good visit...
more later
Beth hope you find what you need for your space...
Judy here is hoping that you are through with the repairs... good luck with the dr's visit...
that was doing good Karen getting rid of three bags of tomatoes
Martha I think that other's are choosing to go with a house fridge to replace the rv fridge... I know that Jenny did but I can't figure out how you can boondock with one...
I didn't get anything done on making the rose for the hat other than find the pattern getting harder and harder to find it...
you all have a great day

Sheila, I don't think you could boondock with a house refrigerator. I don't think you could have enough solar power to run one. I never boondock or run my refrigerator on gas.

I didn't think you could either but Jenny has boondocked with the house fridge I truly don't know how they do it...
