Was going to do a post today on metal containers (excluding #10 cans and such) but it will have to be later. Somehow, day-before-yesterday, the door to my freezer got knocked open. Not wide open, but just enough that it looked closed unless you got right up on it — and just enough that I lost everything in the freezer. Clean-up about completed, defrosting underway, and I’m trying to figure out what happened, how, and how do I make sure it doesn’t happen again.
Had switched from original plan to talking about metal for Long Term Storage given all the solar storms and resulting aurora. Seeing such is on my bucket list, sadly it was cloudy the night we could see it with the naked eye. At the rate things are going, however, we might have the opportunity here again soon. If you don’t know what a Carrington Event is, will have links up on the post to come.
More soon.
Getting hit by lightning is not fun! If you would like to help me in my recovery efforts, which include moving once we have medical issues cleared up, feel free to hit the fundraiser at A New Life on GiveSendGo, use the options in the Tip Jar in the upper right, or drop me a line to discuss other methods. It is thanks to your gifts and prayers that I am still going. Thank you.
I feel your pain – the kids goofed once grabbing something from the freezer as we were leaving on a weekend camping trip. Came back to it alarming very but sadly uselessly loudly, and a big mess
Ouch! And thanks! Could have been something I did, could have been something another did. Key is going to be making sure it can’t (readily) happen again.
