Jimmy from Rapid Fire came for his annual fire extinguisher inspection. He's been providing this service for us for almost 15 years. He said we're good for another year.
Mark is making good progress on the floors. The kitchen is done, the upstairs bathroom is done (see further news below), the downstairs bathroom is done, except for caulking, and Mark thinks he can finish the furnace/laundry room tomorrow.
Joyce (who has done all our painting) is stripping the wallpaper in the upstairs bath, and hopes to paint it tomorrow. Here's her progress:
I got all the batteries changed - TV remotes, clocks and, most importantly, smoke detectors.
I changed all the furnace filters and vacuumed out the filter enclosures.
I checked all the drains and cleaned out a LOT of hair. But they're all flowing fine now.
On a less-than-positive note, I did a major trash pickup of the area below the back deck. This is how much I picked up:
As you can see, that is a VERY full trash bag! Anybody have any ideas on how to 'encourage' our guests NOT to throw their trash off the decks? Fortunately, everybody is not doing it. But this is still a lot of trash. And it seems some of our guests like Dr. Pepper - there were more of those cans than anything else.
There is still LOT to be done. The latest word on carpet is that they MAY start tomorrow afternoon!
Any comments? Please let us know what you think.
