Crime Scene No More

For the last three weeks we were in Maine we had fabulous, dry and cool weather. Came home to North Carolina to an unnamed tropical storm. Not terrible in Durham, but down east is bad. I am thinking of all my friends down there and hoping the storm does not do too much damage.

I was awoken early by texts from Carter asking me about car services I used in Germany. Turns out she is in the center of European floods. The Train she and Claire were taking from Germany to Vienna was canceled at Lutz. I didn’t have the answer, but thankfully the hotel they are staying at in Vienna was able to get them car service from Lutz to Vienna. Thankfully they made it into to Vienna and then I saw the floods in Vienna on the news. Glad I knew they were safe before I saw that.

I stayed home all day, missing two different friends’ birthday celebrations, to wait for my new refrigerator. The two guys from Lowe’s who brought it were fantastic. They took away the crime scene and installed the new one with no problems. Thankfully I knew how to turn the house water off so they could install the water line without incident.

That issue will officially be in the rear view minor as soon as the fridge makes two rounds of ice I can throw away. Then tomorrow after teaching two classes I can buy some food to go in that fridge. Won’t be much as we are just the two of us and one small brown dog. Russ had the brilliant idea that we could clean out the garage freezer, by moving anything from it up stairs and doing a deep cleaning on that appliance. Oh what an exciting weekend we are going to have next weekend. Maybe this will start a cleaning out revolution. No more Crime scene here.
