In a recent blog, I mentioned getting stuck inside due to bitterly cold weather might force me to clean my oven. Instead of cleaning my oven yesterday, I did rather the opposite.
Our current spell of sub-zero
temperatures provided a unique opportunity for me to defrost my old-timey-builds-glaciers-inside
freezer.
After unplugging my freezer, I
lugged my frozen whatnots and whizbangs outside to the back deck and allowed
the Arctic impulse to keep them frozen while I took a run at breaking up and melting
the glaciers from inside my freezer.
My chosen tools for ice removal
were these: wood chisel, electrician’s hammer, and pots of heated water. I suppose someone, a carpenter for example, might
make a valid argument for using another type of hammer, but we can reserve that
argument for a warmer day.
The project took something near
three hours.
The real story here? I had fun.
I got to bust-up something, make a mess that simply melted, and rock-out
to music the whole time.
