LG Fridge Door Alarm
Posted by Chris Inch on Aug. 30th, 2006
Our new fridge was delivered last night. The delivery guys came and dropped it off. The fridge is fancy as can be: Stainless steel, bottom-mount freezer, energy efficient.... and a nifty feature called a "Door Alarm". Too bad it never stops beeping.
The dig is on
Posted by Chris Inch on Aug. 29th, 2006
Three pickup trucks and one Bobcat were at my house bright and early this morning, starting work on my lawn. The plan is to dig up and remove a couple inches of soil from the top of the yard. This will be followed by a slew of new top soil and finally sod to make our yard look beautiful again.
I think that this last month has been the most expensive month of my life.
New Fridge!
Posted by Chris Inch on Aug. 28th, 2006
Heather and I bought a new fridge on Saturday. We had looked at this fridge earlier in the week and it was on sale. When we went back on the weekend, it was $200 more expensive. The guy at FutureShop was nice enough to honour the discounted price though. The fridge is being delivered tomorrow evening though, so finally we’ll have some place to put food now.
Black belt in Jiu Jitsu
Posted by Chris Inch on Aug. 25th, 2006
I'm well on my way to getting my black belt in Jiu Jitsu. Actually, I attended my first 2-hour class last night with Darryl from work. I'd like to start taking a martial art, but after trying Jiu Jitsu for the first time I'm not sure that it's for me.
Basement Update #3
Posted by Chris Inch on Aug. 23rd, 2006
My house is safe again. We finished up the floor joists the other night and I now feel comfortable walking across my kitchen floor. We still have to patch up the subfloor but the hard part is done.
Basement Update #2
Posted by Chris Inch on Aug. 17th, 2006
I’m back again with more updates. The basement is a bit safer now. Matt came over again last night and we bought two jackposts and three 2×8’s from Home Depot. We made a nice sturdy beam out of the 2×8’s which now supports our kitchen floor.
