Our refrigerator lightbulb burned out a couple of days ago. In the grand scheme of things, this is a minor inconvenience. But there is something very discouraging about opening the refrigerator door and peering through the murk to find food.
Given how often during the day I have to open that door, that's a lot of hits of minor discouragement.
Thankfully, we had already planned a trip to the Outside World this weekend, so I can replace it relatively quickly. And I bet it's going to be a real mood-booster for a few days every time I open the refrigerator door and see that cheery bulb lighting my life once again.
That's all. Happy Wednesday.
Then you will see how bright the new inside of your refrigerator is. I see a refrigerator cleaning in the near future.
ReplyDeleteMy mom's went out years ago and she still hasn't replaced it. She's obviously fine with it but I agree with you- very disconcerting.
ReplyDeleteYour "outside world" lists are undoubtedly pretty impressive! When the kids are a little older you can turn them into a treasure hunt--I remember that A's brother was a huge help in the grocery store, as he remembered where things were and exactly which products I bought.
ReplyDeleteBuy a couple in case you get home and find one doesn't work. And you'll have a spare in any event.
