Freezer Door Open - Water Leaked on Wood Floor

I got to my townhouse this morning and discovered that when I finished cleaning out the refrigerator/freezer yesterday,  I hadn’t pushed one of the shelves all the way back in, and so it blocked the door from closing completely. Thus, with the door ajar,  the ice in the ice maker started thawing and leaking onto the hardwood floor.  Sigh!

I pulled the refrigerator out from the wall - swept/mopped/wiped up all the water.  Lord, I SURE hope I got it cleaned up in time and it doesn’t cause the wood floor to warp. One spot, in particular, looks a little saturated. 

Also, that means that the food I had decided to keep is now thawed out, too.  So I have more food to throw out.  In addition to being a lot of work, this move is turning out to be a food-waster, too.

My mantra for now is “In two weeks, this move will be behind me” - repeated over and over and over and over . . .

    I don’t think a move can every really go as smoothly as we’d like. There’s always some sort of problem or mini disaster. Hope your’s are all out of the way!
    Peace……………

    Thanks, Helen. I think it will all be fine. Life is in the living - and these things are part of life.

    Oh Carol, I am SO sorry. What a mess to have to clean up. I hope the floor will be OK. Your attitude is good…in two weeks it will all be over.
