My fridge was finally delivered on Friday afternoon. The two guys who came were super nice, and even took my old fridge away for me (for $20).
So, about an hour after tehy leave, I plug in my new fridge, and it's making this weird clunking noise. After speaking to my husband about it, we think it might just be from being jossled (sp) and leave it hoping it'll get better.
After dinner, I notice it's getting worse, so I pull the fridge out and take the little plastic cover off the bottom at the back where the compresser and the fans systems are. Guess what? The 'nut' is missing on the fan blade and it's making this scraping/clunking noise.
So, I go searching for a 'nut' to screw onto the bolt where the fan is. Find a couple and come back and fixed my fridge myself! :)
Now I'm wondering.... how did the nut come off? Was it done purposely by the first guys who came to deliver on wednesday and who ended up leaving with my fridge, or was it just a fluke that the nut was missing from such an important piece of the fridge? Seriously, in testing, this would NEVER have been overlooked.
I guess I'll never know.

New Fridge
Was online looking for a new fridge all evening (yesterday), and all morning (today).
Found one that was the right size (28" wide MAX or it'd never fit up my narrow staircase). Called The Brick to be sure it was in stock. Went there. It wasn't in stock. So, haggled with the guy who told me it was in stock and got a great discount on another fridge (a better one). They'll deliver it tomorrow.

I'm so mad!
I went out to the kitchen a couple hours ago to get a snack, and there was a huge puddle under the fridge.
WTF?!?!?
I open the freezer, and everything is mush! The freezer is thawing and dripping and there was over $200 worth of stuff in there, and everything is mush! Grab a garbage bag and toss everything!
Go through the fridge, things don't seem as cold as they should be. But not too bad, yet. So we put some stuff in our FIL's fridge. He asked us if we wanted to put our freezer stuff in his as well, but I told him everything thawed out. And if you refreeze it, you're just asking to get sick.
So, tomorrow we have to go and buy a new fridge. And then we have to go grocery shopping to replace all that was lost today.
I'm so mad.
