Hey y'all.  Whew!!  What a day.
In just 16 short days, I return to work.  YAY!!  I think...Anyhoo, I have been looking all summer for a full size refrigerator (gently used) real cheap.  Guess what, that combo ain't happening.
So, last night, on Craigslist, I saw the answer to my prayers.  A full size fridge for $25.00.  Okay, that should have been my first clue.  But it looked OK in the picture.  But they did warn that it had a "little" rust and needed to be cleaned up.  I was so excited, I almost peed my pants.
Bright and early this morning, I went to the designated house to pick it up.  Pulled up in the driveway and .......urk!!! Stop right there.  That fridge had more than a little rust.  Oh well, what did I expect for $25.00?  My heart was broken. 
So, my son wanted to stop at a resale store to look at clothes.  I figured, what could it hurt.  Might even have a cheap fridge in there somewhere.
There was not one fridge to be seen anywhere.  BUT, I got something that I have been wanting for a long time.  But I never would have paid full price.  Just could not see me spending that kind of money on something other than clothes for the kids.  BUT, (choir of angels singing here) there was a used Kitchen Aid mixer.  Yes, it was.  Less than $150.00 with all the attachments in the bowl. 
So, it was a bad day and a good day.  Hope you all have a blessed weekend.  Now, I have to excuse myself, because I think I am going to make some Boston Creme pancakes for breakfast tomorrow.
