EOTech 512.A65/1; dead fridge

My EOTech 512.A65/1 "red dot" holographic weapon sight arrived today, and M-Pro 7 gun cleaner (32 oz. bottle—seemed the best value for money size that I could actually use) arrived yesterday. It had been delayed a long time: the first time the gun cleaner leaked and they returned the entire package; then they claimed they were out of that size, but managed to find a bottle and send it to me. I'd ordered both on October 20th.
I mounted the sight on my AR-15; it was quite simple, and just required a (provided) Allen key. Range test coming soon.
Our fridge gave out yesterday (maybe earlier?): we moved some dairy to the freezer but it was having trouble keeping things toward the front cold. They sent a guy to fix it in the morning, but they said they'd be there at 0900 and we had to call at 0930 when they hadn't showed yet, but they arrived right after that. We lost some milk, maybe some (formerly) frozen waffles, and some spaghetti sauce. We called the apartment office on the "It doesn't hurt to ask" theory, asking if they would compensate us for a claimed $30 loss; they said they'd give us a $50 credit. Color me generally impressed with Avalon at Bear Creek (Avalon Bay Communities, I suppose).
I stayed home for the fridge repair guy, and I was going to take Honey to school today since she's still feeling unwell, but she decided she hadn't studied enough for the test and would make it her dropped test in that class.
