We have a large General Electric (GE) side-by-side refrigerator freezer that suddenly and without warning broke down and quit working. At first Grandpa thought that maybe the problems were only with the freezer motor or blown fuse, since it appeared that the frig was still cooling. The lights inside still worked and the water line for the ice maker and water dispenser on the door still worked. It turns out that the refrigerator circuit board was giving us the problems and in need of repair or replacement, and both the refrigerator and freezer had died.
It figures that the refrigerator would break down on a weekend and we would have problems trying to reach a local service provider or repairman to come and fix the refrigerator for us. Then again, having refrigerator or freezer problems happen on a weekend is much better than if it happened during the work week or while on vacation. Fortunately, we still have a very old stand-up freezer in the garage so we were able to save all the frozen food, and didn’t have any problem keeping the food in the refrigerator cold and nothing was spoiled.

Grandma is my chosen nickname, even though I considered a variety of grandma and grandpa nicknames including “nana” when I found out I was going to become a grandparent for the very first time.
Grandmother poems for and about Grandma’s are a real treasure to be enjoyed and shared throughout the generations. Here is a collection of some of the best Grandma Poems on the web.
Being a grandma allows me to enjoy all the wonderful Grandma and Grandpa quotes and old sayings that didn’t have any real meaning to me until I became a Grandma. My favorite Grandma quote so far is, “What goes on at Grandma’s house stays at Grandma’s house”, and boy oh boy ain’t that the truth!
I was recently tagged with the “7 Things Meme”, and even though I have already done the 7 Things on another blog I own, I figured I could do the 7 Things meme here on Grandma Stories too.
