Our Oven.. and last few days

The Sears technician came out to take a look at our oven on Tuesday. When Randy turned the power back on, I expected to hear the familiar beeping. Instead, the oven decided to work. He was able to turn it on and off. The technician said that F1 generally means that the control panel and the computer part has gone bad. However, since it wasn't beeping, he figured it had been a stuck key. No sooner had he said that the oven started beeping and started flashing F1. He tried pressing the keys to get it to stop, just as we had. After just a few seconds of listening to it, he asked Randy to please turn it back off!

After pricing out how much it would be for a new computer thing and control panel and the labor charge, we found it was cheaper to get a new oven. Thankfully Sears has a deal going on now for their appliances ~ 10%, free delivery, and 12 months no payments and no interest. Our new oven gets delivered tomorrow. We opted to put it in ourselves and not pay the labor fee, so I am hoping it isn't incredibly difficult. We did alright with taking out the old oven tonight.

Randy has been using Access transit system more. I think it is great ~ that way he isn't stuck in the house by himself all day. I think he was going a bit stir crazy.
