The Fridge Won






The last thing, other than cleaning, that needed to be done to Duane's rental in Reno was out a fridge in. The whole deal started a little shady. We went to some back alley storage unit where two guys were sitting in a storage unit PACKED full of house hold stuff "We /buy from estate sales and then sell the stuff on craigslist." they said "RRRIIIGGGHHTTT", I thought as Duane chatted with them about what a great idea that was. REALLY???? The guys take the cash and then go into their "other" storage unit and drive out a fork lift...hmmm. Anyway they forklift this humongous fidge into the truck. We drive back to the rental house and that's where we realize we have at least one problem...how are we going to get it out of the truck? We don't have a forklift. Duane comes up with a plan...it ends up with a severly dented and scratched fridge, broken bricks in the front yard and him pinned between a tree and the fridge. At least it's out! So Duane, his mom and I push/ drag the dented up, scratched fridge up the rocky driveway......
30 minutes later...
we're dismantling the fridge because it's too big to fit in the front door....
30 minutes later...
pushing and shoving it into the fidge slot...
the fridge won't fit...
cutting the window sill off....
the fridge is stuck....
sawing down the cabinets and granite counter tops...
pushing and shoving again....
like a glove.
