The Fridge Isn't Fridging, Day 3

So yeah, the fridge is not working in its current configuration.

I called to set an appointment with a repairman, and he can't come until next week. That's okay. It's just two of us at home right now and we're living out of a cooler which is kind of a pain but it's working.

Whether we buy a new fridge out of the deal isn't yet known. I'd like to find out what's wrong with the one we've got and see if can be repaired. I don't want to instantly throw it away; we already throw away way too much as a society. If it can be fixed at a reasonable price, with a reasonable chance of lasting at least a few more years (say, five to seven) I'm happy to get this one fixed and keep using it. We're too primed to toss something and replace it with something new rather than fix what we've got these days.
