Last night I went to sleep with inverters dancing in my head! 😃 I hope it is the last night I have to leave my generator going all night to keep my fridge cold.
Woke up early around 8 o'clock with the sun shining and no wind. Always good. Waited till around 9 to take Yuma for a walk and then get ready to head to RV Connection to hopefully pick up a new inverter.
By 9:30 we were on our way. Tom, the owner was hard at work installing a satellite system when we arrived.
Went inside to talk to Tom's son, Jordan. He had received a new shipment of inverters and said a couple were not spoken for so I wanted to make sure I got dibs on one of them.
We talked and decided I would work directly with Go Power on the issue with my old inverter and if they sent a new one, I would have a back-up. If not, at least I would be up and running with the new one.
We got home at 1 o'clock but not without stopping at Best Buy for an new Visio Smart TV. That will be a discussion for another day.
I went to work installing the new inverter right away. Bill On Our Way stopped over to see if there was anything he could do. We searched for fuses that could be blown but couldn't find any, so I continued my installation.
Finally, at 4:30 I was ready to switch it on and see if there was power. Anxiously, I peaked in the fridge to see if the light was on. And it was 😀😀😀. I was so happy to see power without hearing it.
Went over to the Happy Hour at Tom and Deb's place Celebrating the Dance and I was late but Shane and Cathy were still there. Told then the good news and we chatted for just a bit and soon was time to come home to fix hotdogs for dinner.
It's been a long and hectic day for me but in the end all is well, I hope! 😧 I promised Nick and Yuma that tomorrow will be a day for exploring and not another day of running around Yuma looking for stuff.
Thanks for stopping by.
YAY!!! I know the feeling of finally having something work. Congrats on getting that fixed. Hope they replace the old one for you too. Never hurts to have a backup. Have fun exploring!
ReplyDeleteThanks Nancy. Nick, Yuma and I ready to do something besides work for a change.
DeleteHa ha, I think Dave above has commented on your blog instead of Nancy - in case you were confused. I just finished reading hers. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat on you for getting things installed and running. Hopefully, we'll see you later today at H.H.
Glad to be back to running quiet. See you later.
DeleteGlad things are working again. Enjoy your explorations, looking forward to find out where we are going. Haha
ReplyDeleteWe're heading to where you and Jerry went last year. 😊
DeleteThat was good news about getting everything working again. Hope you have/had a fun day exploring.
ReplyDeleteMe too. I'm sure we'll find something exciting to do.
DeleteI'm looking forward to see where you explore today. Elva
ReplyDeleteGoing to be a busy and tiring day.
DeleteGood job replacing the inverter! Nice to have the fridge working again without the need to run the generator. New TV to test the new inverter?
ReplyDeleteYep. Got to be able to get Discovery+ Glad to be done with inverters for now.
DeleteSo glad everything is working again for you! We love our Smart TVs! Even I can figure out most of the time LOL. Nice you were able to get to Happy Hour even if you were late. I'm sure they were happy for you and really nice that Bill stopped over to help. Don't know if you saw but I did post an original picture of my pillow :) It's on my December 24th blog..
ReplyDeleteI hope i can figure my tv out. Glad we're done with inverter problems. Thanks for letting me know. I'll check it out.
DeleteI'm thinking Nick can figure out the TV! :)
DeleteI'm so glad you got your new inverter up and running. I know you were tired if listening to the generator. Hopefully you'll be able to do other things now.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dolly. I think we're ready for some exploring now.
