WELCOME to my blog!!

It has been approximately 2 years since I regularly updated, but recently I began missing my blogging. I have gone against "the rules of blogging" by simply naming my blog "Bridget's Ramblings". It goes against the rules because you are supposed to choose one topic that you are passionate about and write about it. Well, it just so happens that I become passionate about anything that piques my interest at any given point in time. My husband once told me my hobby is finding new hobbies.....I can't deny it!! However, I will say that my kids--currently ages 11, 8, 6, and 4--will always be a major topic you can expect to read about. Beyond the kids, my current secondary interests include running and biking....gardening will most likely be the next topic to grab my attention. But, the one thing you can count on is that I will undoubtedly ramble on about whatever I find interesting.

Refrigerator is back in action

But, I don't think I'll ever call GE service again. They are EXPENSIVE! It only took the guy 30 min and it cost me 150.00 in labor alone. The part was 110.00. That's because they don't charge by the hour, it's by the job. Evidently our "mainboard" was bad and needed to be replaced. It basically looked like the "brains" of the fridge. So, I'm a little miffed that the brain died after only 4 years and cost so much to replace. I'm pretty sure I'm done with GE appliances. Our GE dishwasher is also only 4 years old and all the little plastic pieces are falling apart. Based on my experience it appears that you can only expect 4 good years from a GE appliance. Personally, I believe that major appliances are expensive enough to last longer than 4 years!

I did email their corporate customer service but didn't get anything more than "sorry". Oh well, live and learn.

This is off the subject, but has anyone else know a dog to CRAVE tomatoes? Our dog is insane! He has now stolen 6 tomatoes from my countertop! He got 4 on Sunday and then he got 2 more yesterday. I really need to learn to put them high enough that he can't reach. When he gets them he devours them--not a piece is left behind. It's just the weirdest thing ever! If I don't get more careful about where I leave the tomatoes he just might eat our entire crop. Thank goodness we have the fence around the garden or else I'm positive we'd have no tomatoes at all.
