Yesterday:


My heat broke.

My cat needed an emergency bath.

My ovens broke. Less than a week before Thanksgiving and I have no oven.

I have built in double ovens. Turns out they are not a stock item and nearly everyone has to special order them. Found a place this morning that stocks them and went there and picked out a new pair of ovens. Only thing is the only ones they stock are 30" ovens and I have 27" ovens. They are coming out this afternoon to see if the 30" will fit in the same cabinet.

I sure didn't want to have to buy this but isn't it pretty? Hope it fits.

ETA: Well, they might fit. The installers came and measured and said the cabinet itself is just wide enough but they are going to have to cut into and rebuild the trim. So they left the old ovens out on the floor and called in a carpenter to do that bit and prepare the space for them to do the install. They told me not to panic and promised I'll have ovens for Thanksgiving. Of course I have houseguests arriving Tuesday. I wonder how they feel about Chinese food?

Quinn, that is three things - things will now get better. The ovens will fit, they will look fantastic, you will prepare a wonderful Thanksgiving and your guests love Chinese.
BTW, what did your cat do to deserve and emergency bath?

Digestive upset. A long haired cream cat with an upset tummy is not a happy pairing.

OMG! I hope the new oven works out. Talk about bad timing!

Poor kittie. I hope he's better.

I am sure the ovens will fit *crosses fingers*
