Our New Stove

 

We called the appliance repair guy to come out and switch over the stove from natural gas to propane. 

Wait.

Back up. 

Matt picked up a new stove for us when he went to Oregon and bought a truck, because the one we had was from marketplace that we got pretty cheap and was a little precarious. 

If you tried to use the oven part, there would be a bit of leaking gas and an explosion, which no one really wants that.

The new stove is a Fisher Paykel which is a really expensive one that we got for like $300!

It's been sitting in the garage for months and I told Matt that we needed to get that taken care of. 

We ordered the conversion kit and then Matt called the guy to come and do it since he can not bend, lift or twist because of his back surgery. 

Well, dude comes out the first time and does not know what he's doing so he tells Matt he is going to do some research and then come back in a day or so. 

He tells Matt that the last time he fixed a Fisher Paykel was 5 years ago, so either they don't break or no one is buying them. 

That sounds like a good thing. 

Then he comes back in the day or so and still has no idea what he is doing and ends up leaving again and says he will come back. 

It's not a short drive out here. 

He is wasting my time and his. 

So I did it myself! 

I literally went to the internet and figured it out and Matt helped with a few orifices and Corban helped with two of them and tonight the stove is now working. 

And isn't it so beautiful there?

It fits perfectly and now we don't have to go out and turn off the propane between every use because of leaks....

It's the little things honestly. 

Also, Corban and I changed the breaks on the van and next up will be finishing the metal on the roof with Dallin.

I feel so accomplished.
