The refrigerpatient has been upgraded from serious to stable.
We have adequate output, now, so I can offer you a drink with ice. You are, however, no longer able to ice skate on the thick layer of ice that used to form on the bottom.
The bottom of the freezer, not my bottom.
Or, yours either, for that matter.
Whatever.
Just thought you'd like to know.
Busy Dad however, was hurling his brains out all night, though.
Busy Boy is still home from school with either strep or homework-itis. Differential diagnosis pending culture results.

Every time I write a note to school for one of the kids, I'm always tempted to sign it "Epstein's Mother".
But, I'm afraid my exquisite wit would be lost on anyone not of Generation Jones like myself.

Ah shame. I hate it when you have to explain. I keep hoping that 'busy' will become a thing of the past. There again, busy is better than bored.
Cheers dears
Yeah the fridge is fixed! I knew something marvolous must have happened since my bathroom light came on at Midnight last night. he.he.he.
I think your fridge infected my lights....http://mommas-world.blogspot.com/2007/08/crazy-electricity.html
My husband begged me to let him sign Miss-D's first ever "sick day excuse" Epstein's Mother!!! The teacher would have been too young to get the ref. and she had no sense of humor anyway....
AAAHAAHAHAAHAHAAHAHAHA...
Oh dude, my son has two teachers old enough to get it...SO doing that in October when he's going to miss a week
You need my Stella. She is the best fridge EVER!!!
Well, what do your kids bribe you with?
(Didn't expect this Gen Xer to know that, huh?)
Here's hoping all of the patients (fridge, Busy Dad and Busy Boy) all get healthy and STAY that way!
FTR, I got the reference. Of course, now the theme song is stuck in my head.
Generation Jones! Awesome! BusyMom, wherever did you find that? So cool...I'll be passing that one on--we have a name! We're somebody!
LMAO at "Epstein's Mother"! I was teasing my 6 YO about that the other day! You can imagine the look he gave me (and my English Husband who knows NOTHING about SweatHogs!)
I'm a GenXer and totally LOL'd at the Epstien's mother remark. That is some funny doo dah, girl. I'm using that one on my next note to school!
I've been known to throw "Kotter" references around, but I'd completely forgotten "Epstein's Mother." Thanks for the flashback! Hope your family recovers soon, now that your refrigerator has.
Your comments REFUSE to remember me. Sorry you have sickies in the house. The major PERK of being an empty nester! No child to go back to school and pick up all of the latest back to school bugs!!! woohoo!
Saw a youtube the other day spoofing Harry Potter as Kotter. Funny!
Yay for the working fridge! I hope everyone feels better soon! I thought that we were the only one's who had kids that sufferred from homeworkitis. I am glad to know that we are not alone.
BTW...I loved the Epstein comment. Several of my kid's teachers are old enough to get that one. :)
I AM Epstein's mother...
Exquisite wit flies around here daily.
I am NOT Epstein's mother, but I AM raising a bunch of little sweat hogs...HEEH...HEEH...HEEH...but, it's hot in here ;o)
It's funny how you always have to feel the office peeps out, some of them apparently have no sense of humor..
