electrical issue/outlets/refrigerator??

[Kyz]

I turned off refrigerator and tried plugging something else in, but nothing. I used a multimeter to test the outlets. The 120v light was lighting up with no problems, but plugging in something small (tried TV then a fan in case it was the TV), nothing happened. I plugged the multimeter back in and it blinked for a second before lighting up again perfectly. That was without flipping the breaker or touching anything else. Best I can tell the only test/reset buttons I have is on the outlet in the bathroom. I checked the outlet the refrigerator is plugged into also.

I haven't checked the fuses yet. I have a fuse set on order that is supposed to be here Thursday in case I need to replace any fuses (plus I really need the tool to remove the fuses because I have difficulty pulling the fuses without something to help).
