New Life form?

May 26, 2007 on 9:13 pm | In Main |

We had a bad odor in our refrigerator this morning, which I attributed to a bag of chicken that had been stored a couple of more weeks than it should have. Just in case, I decided to pull out the meat drawer and clean it as well. It was at this point that I discovered something strange at the bottom of the fridge. It was a combination of gunk, ice, and some time of mold or fungus. It looked like something from another planet, maybe a new life form discovery. My analysis of the life form was limited to seeing how long it would take to clean it up. Most of it came off rather easily, but the underlying gunk that likely caused the problem took some elbow grease. With a bowl of baking soda to absorb any remaining odors, which should have a clean smelling refrigerator tomorrow.

Sean played Lego Star Wars today, and he finally saved enough Lego studs to buy the 4x brick. He can now collect studs at 4 times the rate he had been. I think Sean is learning a lesson on saving, in that if you buy everything that comes along, even if you have enough money for it, you don’t have enough for what truly makes a difference. Wait a minute, maybe Sean’s parents could learn that lesson as well!

Sean and Ethan behaved well today, so we rewarded them with a trip to Sweet Tomatoes. We went to the bookstore afterwards, where Cortney bought a book to read on the plane. Cortney and the kids will be flying to Florida week after next.
