A new stove

Saturday we went to Lowe's to pick out a new stove. Sunday morning we spent the morning cleaning, so they could deliver the new stove. Now you are wondering why we needed a new stove.

Honestly, we've talked about getting a new one for a couple of years. One of the burners sparked when you turned it on, for quite a few years now. Then last spring, or summer, John and the girls had to try an experiment with aluminum foil. It left melted aluminum foil on my favorite burner, even though I was told it would not do that.

The final straw occurred last week. John told Chloe to store her bag of popcorn in the stove to protect it from the humidity in the house. Then he told her that may be a bad idea and she had to remember it was there. Well, no one informed me of any of this until after the fire. Yep. Small fire in the oven. Did I panic? You bet ya! Did Chloe? Not at all. She came right into the kitchen, grabbed the can (not an actual fire extinguisher, but easier to use), and put out the fire. Then she realized what was in the oven and fell apart. lol  I totally blamed John.

And that is why we have a new stove.

Today, I had to get a new military ID. I am the lucky one who only got six months before needing to get a new one when we had them made last year. But we had the chance to see John for a few minutes and that always makes my day.

We came home by way of our favorite RV place. They finally (after 1 1/2 year) have the floor plan we saw at the RV show two years ago. I wanted Jesse to get in it again. She keeps saying the ones we are looking at are too small. But that is what we want. I also found her complaints rather amusing considering we were all on our bed last night watching TV.

School was finished early today. We took an hour break, then headed up to the classroom to clean. So many things have been left out lately and it was driving me nutty. After cleaning, we had a foosball tournament. Chloe beat me, but just by one point. Then she and Jesse had it out. I'm not sure who won their match.
