Thanks Gabe!
Gabe and Ani on a Snow Day Helping me dig out
Good old Gabe saved our butts again. The last couple of days there has been an ominous sitting of water in the hallway behind the fridge. The fridge is a side-by-side fridge and freeze, with water dispenser and auto icemaker. Something is leaking behind the fridge and is impossible to get at without moving the whole unit out. We have been placing towels down and it has been soaking through pretty fast—mind you the water is seeping out onto the hard wood flooring in the hall way so this has to stop. So the only option I to get under the house and turn the water off at the source. So we called on Gabe—he came over with Ani and he had the water turned off in ten minutes. Thanks Gabe. What really irks me is that because I use a wheelchair for mobility and have no hands to speak of, I am a quad from a motorcycle wreck years ago. If I was able bodied I could do all this stuff but I cannot. Dianne does what she can and when she can but really has to do a lot of stuff that I would do in other realities. It’s the way of livening “independent” with disability. You grab what you can who you can- and it’s usually neighbors or family. It’s how you have to get by if you’re a guy in a chair.
