Good morning

 

[sun rise]

I'm having a full morning but the forecast is for things to calm down this afternoon after I meet with the contractor after texting him all the problems that they've generated such as the schmutz on the pool deck.

What am I looking at here?

I have pretty claw foot tub, but its a little small.

I've not had a bath for 9 years, getting pretty stinky...

Actually that's wrong, when i go to the UK, wherever i go (if they have one) i ask. "After that airport hustle i need a bath, do you mind?"

That's a good idea.

I'm sure they were happy to give you that chance...

Pool deck. It should all be the same color.

Oh, if I had a pool....

It could be any color!

I really want an in ground pool. Preferably indoor... but, I'll take what I can get. (Which will probably be nothing.)

I've (we've) taught mine all of them, thought the garden is a courtyard and plant pots, and the youngest is not old enough for a car yet.

I can't do 1. 2 is something I shout for Sam or my local friend for. I think I'm okay with 7? I don't have a lot to be competent about... just don't spend more than you bring in seems like the best way to go... I cannot do 9, but Sam can. Our local friend taught him to do so(and she's 10 years younger than me).

The insurance company is trying to blackmail me into installing smart sensors. We paid about $2,000 last year but they're going to bump it up to $6,000 this year if we don't have the sensors. I didn't know what a smart sensor was until I got the letter.

What the hell is a smart sensor?

Apparently they monitor a variety of things... fire, motion detectors, gas leaks, flooding etc

I'd look for another insurance company, blackmail is not the way to do business
