Procrastination

Today's entry is all about not getting things done.

Back in April, we got a new fridge. Really stepping into the modern times. We got one with the built in icemaker and the water dispenser in the door. Of course, this requires a water line to be run to the back of the refridgerator. Two weeks ago (October 22) we finally got around to hooking that up.

Two years ago after we moved in, we had a new furnace installed. The old one was 20+ years old and needed to go. Anyway, this new furnace came with a programmable thermostat, so that we don't have to turn the temperatur up in the morning and down at night. Its been two years, but I still haven't taken the time to program the thermostat so that it automatically changes the temperature when we want it to. The funny thing is that I work on computers all day, so it isn't because I'm intimidated by the programming process, I just haven't gotten around to it.

Oh, and about the fridge, we noticed that some of the boards in our kitchen hardwood floor were cupping this weekend. Pulled the fridge out and the water line was leaking. We had some standing water there - the floor was good and wet. I tightened up the nut on the connection and it has been dry for 3 hours, we'll see in the morning. In the meantime, there's a fan trying to dry things out. So, I guess it wasn't too bad that we didn't hook it up for 6 months.
