Fridge Finally Fixed!

When we arrived home from Arlington 2 weeks ago, we were welcomed with a horrible stench coming from our fridge. Come to find out, it had stopped working while we were gone. And judging from the damage, it had probably stopped as soon as we left. So it had been sitting for over a week. Not exactly what we wanted to deal with. We cleaned it out with bleach, but the smell still remained, so we taped it shut so we wouldn't accidentally open the doors. The repair guys came out 3 days later to fix it only to realize they didn't have the correct part. So they they said they would be back in 3 more days! At this point we were considering buying a mini fridge. We even went to a few places to check them out. But we didn't want to spend the money if it would only be a few more days. Well, it ended up being a heck of a lot longer because the repair guy wrote down the wrong part number & they weren't able to find it. Grrr. So after countless calls to this company, things were finally straightened out & our fridge is fixed. What a relief. I was tired of eating fast food & living out of a cooler. It was especially hard since we had Elliot. But all is well now, except for the lingering smell. It's nowhere near as bad as the day we got home, but still not pleasant. I hold my breath every time I open the fridge. Needless to say, we are SO looking forward to moving in 3 weeks!
