Starving Children in Africa
Sorry I have not blogged in a while I have been suffering from lack of motivation. I bet you are wondering why I titled this blog Starving Children in Africa. In the last 2 weeks I have had to throw out at least a months worth of meat and food. The story begins about 2 weeks ago. We bought a new TV stand for our TV. So while Keith was putting it together he decided that instead of hammering all of the nails by hand he would pull out his nail gun and get the job done in half the time. But he could not find an extention cord long enough so he decided that he would unplug the extention cord we are currently using on our Freezer in the garage. Fully intending to plug the freezer back in once he was done with the nail gun. Well we got side tracted and 2 days later noticed that the garage was starting to smell. We had to throw everything away. Then on Sunday we came home from church and noticed that the house smelled funny. Like something was burning. We could not figure out where the smell was coming from we checked everything. Monday night we decided to go grocery shopping and stock up on some of the meat we had to throw away. We get home and start putting groceries away and noticed that there was water on the floor underneath the frige/freezer. Apparently our Refrigerater (that is not even 5 years old) decided to quit working. A circut shorted out. $250 later our Refrigerator is now working again, but we had to throw everything away that was in our inside freezer and refrigerater. So now I feel bad there are all of these starving children in Africa and I am throwing food out left and right. Not to mention my grocery bill for the month doubled. Go Figure!!!!

that sucks it always seems like when it rains it pours. but i did hear about your new TV sounds pretty cool. i think you need to put a picture up of it cause i want to see.
Yuck! no fun. I hate throwing food away.
That is crazy! You basically killed 10 in Africa for wasting all that food. How can you sleep at night :). what a bummer to have to stock up again. I bet you have some good stuff for dinner though.
We get to see you soon....2 months!
That is too funny! That is totally someting I would do! :-)
That just happened to us last month, after being in CA for two weeks we came home to a very stinky house and found out fridge had stopped working while we were gone! Sweet times :)
