Buddy, this is when you have to take a deep breath and realize that at least you're getting all your bad luck for the next couple years out of the way in a short period of time. It can only get better from here, i promise...(hope)

Keep your head high and try to concentrate on the good ie Star is still with you and will get better plus its the start of fishing season. Go toss a line when you get a chance. If i was back there i'd take you fishing in chatham. I know a great spot that will be producing keepers very soon that you can walk to... PM me if you want to know where.

KARMA: a fine balance between good and bad.
Raven, you've gotten MORE than your share of bad out of the way.
Here's hoping the "Good Karma" train makes a stop at your station. It's time for some good karma.
The best bet is to do something that you enjoy, and makes you feel good.

Wink i feel like it is Basswipe

i had the old fridge out in 30 minutes or less
i just got the new fridge in and plugged in
which took me considerably longer to move....
because A,) i had to remove the front wooden door
B.) i had to remove and re-install the power piston bracket for the storm door
and C.) i had to remove the fridge door handles and re-install them

but most importantly... i had to do a burial of a coffin

and that was a sad moment relived...

and mainly i spent almost two hours waiting to get on
the Jay Severin Radio SHOW to inform the public about
Blast wrap to save our soilders from IED's in Iraq
and to warm the local audience about friggan boundary marker
pipes that are all over their property's ... what a day !!!

The other fridge quit now?

did you happen to tilt it sideways getting it into the house at all?
if so you would have needed to give time to let the oil to settle in the motor as it sat upright again, much like an AC unit does.

I have a spare fridge if you need another Raven, let me know
