I’m a freezer-cleaning failure

This entry is part 3 of 3 in the series I'm the man of the house.

We have three freezers. Two refrigerator/freezers and one upright deep-freeze. As you can imagine, every once in a while something gets shoved to the back and forgotten about.

Plus, the deep-freezer is not a frost-free model. This means that at LEAST once a year it needs to be emptied and shoved out on [...]

I just wanted to go out…

The plan was for me to leave work early enough to get home and have a bite before taking the boys to the 7pm movie.
