The Saga of the Refrigerator

We now have water damage to our hardwood flooring in the kitchen. Evidently the hose to the ice maker leaked. The wood floor is wavy and the linoleum in the laundry room has lifted. The insurance adjuster was here yesterday, and the verdict is that the flooring in the kitchen, dining room, living room and powder room must be repaired and refinished. And the laundry room will need new lino. So we will have to move everything out of all those rooms, and then move ourselves out for three days. Our deductible isn't very big, and the insurance will pay for our staying in a motel, so we won't have a lot of expense with all of this, but we will have a lot of bother! I don't look forward to boxing up everything in the buffet, china hutch and bookcases. We'll have to hire people to move the furniture and disconnect the gas clothes dryer, etc., etc. Such fun. We also have to get a plumber to fix the hose connection to the dear new refrigerator!
