Wednesday I had lunch with Sonya at Los Hermanos on Hugh Howell. After lunch, I proposed we go root around the Sears Outlet which is around the corner. Off the cuff, just for something to do. I always dream of finding the perfect stove there…
I stroll over to the stoves and what to my wondering eyes does appear but a screaming hot deal on a Jenn-Air downdraft stove w/ convection oven. It wasn’t $1100-1300, NO it was $923. The skies opened up and the angels sang: AAAAAHHHHHHH! I sent Nick a pic and we bought the $2640 stove for $923. BAM.

Also, we are trying to do as many upgrades as we can to this place so we can unload it and get the hell out of here “one of these days”. ::sigh:: In any case, it will make me VERY happy for the time we are trapped here and that alone is worth admission (Nick agrees wholeheartedly LOL).
