When we first began degriming the kitchen we were surprised to find that the previous owners had left behind a built-in GE Profile microwave. After all, they had stripped everything else. As we removed it in order to install it in a more convenient location, we discovered some part of it was melted solidly into place. Ah...they didn't take it because it didn't work.
Yesterday I discovered that the awesome ceiling fan attached to the covered outdoor patio (a fabulous entertaining space), has one speed. Oh, no...it is supposed to have three speeds. But it doesn't. It moves at one speed so low that you can stand under it and not one hair on your head moves. Not one. This must be why it stayed with the house.
Tonight I went to turn on the garbage disposal. Nothing. So I looked underneath and discovered it was not plugged in. I plugged it in and then saw that it was leaking and leaking. So I turned it on and it was like one of those old aiplanes with a propeller problem. Metal grating upon metal. Quickly I turned it off. Seems they would have taken the disposal if it had worked.
They left the water heater - it had a leak, and we had to replace it (cheers, though, for our new TANKLESS water heating system...more economically and ecologically friendly), but they took their water pump (apparently the city keeps the water pressure so low in this area that you can hardly take a shower if you do not install your own pressure pump).
So now I am wondering about the really beautiful porcelain kitchen sink. Am I going to find something tragically wrong with it tomorrow?
