That’s a good idea. Thanks for that.

I don’t know how we managed to not have roaches but we don’t. Thank God for that.

Around here (and its a major metro area, not sure about where you live) the Jewish Community matches up ederly people with younger people as roommates. You don’t have to be Jewish just be willing to live with an elderly person. I don’t believe there is any “helping” out necessary.Its more a safety thing.Rent is usually quite cheap. Might be something you could look into up your way.
We have many of the same triggers as you do…mice will send us sleeping in the car, booms of any kind are reminders of being shot and lets don’t even talk about roaches. Screaming time then. sigh.
Good luck with everything!

The lowest I’ve seen at Wal-mart is $125. This one here would work super well. Good size, good rating, good brand.

It didn’t occur to me until last night to go to the university and either post my need or look around in the student hall for signs that one is for sale. Truthfully, I think if I’m going to want a new one because of it’s warranty. If I tossed out even 50 bucks for something that stopped working a month down the line or doesn’t work properly I’d be pissed. I don’t know…….

(hit send too soon)

I bet some stores will have sales on dorm fridges soon as the fall and a new school year starts. I got mine at Walmart for $80. Not cheap but I didn’t have time to hunt for a deal.

Sounds like a good house purging may be in order while Fife is gone. Would he miss it if some stuff was “discarded?” Is that something you could do? Not sure if you’d want too. Especially if you think the prospect of moving is a good one.

Do you have universities in your area? If so, check if they have classifieds. Bet you could find a dorm fridge there toward the end of a semester, even the summer semester.
