Zoey and fridge

[susandennis]

It's always amused me how cats go through stages.  Betty wasn't always 'touch my food and you will die'.  And she has had spells of not even acknowledging my presence in any way.  Now she will occasionally show me a little love and has even kind of backed off the food thing a little.

Zoey had a bad day on Tuesday.  Anita was cooking all day and Zoey was not happy about it.  Since then, she has turned into snuggle cat.  For the first time ever, yesterday she curled up next to me while I was knitting and tonight she did the same thing.  She comes over for snuggles and love a lot more since Tuesday.  Weird.

I want a new fridge.  I want one with water and ice spewing out the door.  My old one isn't even old and is not even close t failing.  If I had a place to house it, I'd consider selling it via Craigslist, but coordinating the delivery of the new with some Craigslist person picking up the old is just not doable.

Wonder if appliance places pay for trade-ins?  Probably not.  I'm going to start a Fridge Fund just in case.  Once I get the cash gathered, I'll come up with a plan.

Goodwill may offer pickups for fridges in your neighborhood, seeing as they are right up the street on Dearborn.

Goodwill doesn't pick up but Salvation Army (even closer than Goodwill to me) does... good thot.

Two things. First, when I bought a new fridge, the delivery fee included taking away the old one. Second, before you invest too much mental energy in this, you should find out how much plumbing would be involved in running a water line to the fridge. You may have one in place, in which case you're golden. But if you don't, getting a new fridge would involve running a pipe from somewhere to the back of the fridge.

But, the taking away of the old one was a net free deal? Right? At least in my case. I was kind of wishing I could get some money for it.

I want water and ice out the front. I have an icemaker in this one... Maybe that means I've got the correct plumbing?

GREAT first question to ask, tho. Thanks!!!
