After my last post, someone told me that I'm a very passionate writer. I've decided to fix that with this dispassionate story. Then I'll go back to getting the world married.
Once upon a time last week, Kevin and I went home for a visit. To my surprise, there was a new fridge.
I guess the fact that there was a new fridge wasn't in and of itself too surprising. The old refrigerator had been around more than 20 years and it had been slowly dying, so it made sense to get a new refrigerator.
What surprised me was that the freezer and fridge were next to each other, rather than the freezer on top of the fridge.
I thought we weren't one of those families. You know, "we don't use words like that in our family," or, "we don't watch TV shows like that in our family." I guess I had always thought that "we don't use side-by-side fridges in our family" because all my friends who used side-by-side fridges also used words and watched TV shows that weren't allowed in our house.
I fear my family has been corrupted by worldly influences more than I had anticipated.

oh kyra. i know just what you mean. not to rub it in or anything, but my family does not have a side-by-side fridge. Can't even imagine such a thing happening :)
ReplyDeleteAt least we don't have the automatic ice maker or water dispenser hooked up.
ReplyDeleteHook it up.
DeleteSorry to disappoint you, Kyra, but Grandma Rytting now has a side-by-side refrigerator and the ice maker and water dispenser are hooked up. We still don't say those words in our family, though.
