WIP-it Wednesday...

 ...yesterday didn't quite go as planned.

I knew I'd have to spend time dealing with the delivery of our new refrigerator. The delivery window was set for 1:30-5:30. I planned to empty the fridge at 1:15 in an orderly fashion. They never come at the front end of the delivery window, right? Wrong. They called when they were 30 minutes away at 12:30! Yikes!

I hurriedly emptied the fridge and unlocked the gate. At the last minute, I remembered that I needed to remove all the pots from the hanging rack. Oops! Fortunately, I was ready for them when they arrived.

When they removed the old fridge, I found Cassia's cache of toys. OMG! There were so many!

Of course, nothing happens without problems. Apparently our GFCI outlets in the kitchen are not compatible with the refrigerator. Arg! I scrambled to fins a long enough extension cord to plug the new fridge into a non-GFCI outlet to begin the cooling process. 

Then I finally sat down for the first time in several hours. At 5pm, I got up again to put the food into the new fridge. I was too tired to make dinner, so I ordered a pizza delivery.

The only crafty thing i was able to do was pull the fiber for Tour de Fleece. Today, I need to take photos of the fiber that is not in Ravelry and get them uploaded. Then I can sit down and finish Beach Roses and start plying Ramillete de Flores Handspun [Ravelry].
