Week Past 07/07-07/13/08 (Alarm-Bloodletting-Passport)
Wed 07/09 an alarm system was installed at our home. There was this sales guy walking around the neighborhood to promote their alarm system Pinnacle. He offered us discounts and we thought it was a good deal since we will also be able to get a discount from our home insurance. His installer finally got done around 10:00 pm. I asked him if this is their usual schedule. He said yes. He's not happy about it but that is the only time they could talk to homeowners on weekdays. That is around 5:00 pm. He said sometimes he gets to finish ast 11:00. I can only imagine what time the other house will get done if ever the sales guy was able to close another deal after us.
Wed I started cleaning the floor tiles installed at the porch to remove the grout residues. Took me almost the whole day. Tile work is never done. Thu 07/10 is blood letting day again. This time it was not a success (again, second time). I guess the attendant did not fully insert the needle in my vein. The blood flow was slow. Another attendant tried to correct it later to no avail. I guess my blood started to clot and it just stopped flowing. I was only able to fill about one third of the bag. I hate it when that happens. They lost one potential blood bag and a waste of my time.
Fri 07/11 I finally received my Passport in the mail.
Sat 07/12 dropped off W at the airport for a business trip. Sun 07/13 I started sealing the floor tile in front of the house. Took me almost half the day. Not as hard as cleaning.
Below are some "before and after" pics in our yard. After almost a year.
