Howdy! I have been so very lazy this week. Apparently when there’s a holiday on a Monday you don’t have to do anything the rest of the week. 
We’ve been having an appliance crisis over here. We bought a new refrigerator!
The refrigerator that we had. Oy. It was something that my parents bought for me a long long time ago when I was in a rent house(it didn’t come with a fridge). It ended up making the move with me. It worked just fine even though it was tiny. I wasn’t really into food or cooking or being healthy a whole lot then, so I really just used it for my leftover pizza, frozen dinners, and sodas. But as I started cooking and buying tons of produce it wasn’t very functional for me. I’ve been begging the hubby for a new one, but since that one technically worked we couldn’t really justify the purchase. Then it started falling apart. Literally- the whole bottom shelf fell off! It’s been perched on top of the two bottom drawers for a couple of years now. It had finally gotten so bad that the shelf would almost fall out every time I opened the fridge. I would literally scream “I hate this stupid thing!” every time I opened the fridge!
Look at this tiny thing! I think it’s like 15 cubic feet?
Crammed full of stuff. I can never find anything and I lose track of things so fast that things go bad. See that bottom shelf? LOL!
And this is the new one!!
It’s beautiful!!! It gets delivered on Monday. I am so freaking excited! Food is in short supply around here right now because I’m trying to hold off on grocery shopping until the new one comes in.
Another new purchase I made (today in fact) is a new computer!!!
My old laptop has been dying a slow death for about 2 years now. When I started back to school I bought a netbook to haul around with me in my backpack at school. For the past year I’ve pretty much just been using that exclusively. That poor old laptop was falling apart and I was too afraid to use it! Can you imagine doing all of your work on a 10 inch netbook screen? I have an eye disease(not something I talk about much) and I have a very very hard time seeing words. I’m also legally blind in my left eye. I needed a bigger screen like whoa! So I’ve been saving and saving and saving and I finally got my new computer today!
I’m so in love with this machine!!!
I got a Gateway all-in-one desktop. (nerd alert!) It’s got a 23 inch monitor for my old lady eyes. It’s also touch screen, has 1 TB hard drive, and a pretty damn fast processor (this one has a desktop processor, most other all-in-one’s have mobile processors like what a laptop would have).
It’s so badass! It’s thin and sleek. There is only ONE cord to plug in (seriously). Wireless keyboard and mouse. It was love at first sight.
So that’s what I’ve been up to this week. Obsessing about major purchases. And now my savings account hates me, LOL!
I’ll be back tomorrow with more fun stuff!
Adios!!
