One thing you see a lot of here.
Are a lot of older couples and retired couples. But amazingly there aren't a lot of people that are on those portable oxygen concentrators that I thought I would see. I've only seen a couple of people having to use them. Which is positive news for me I guess living here in Arizona. I guess I should remain on a healthy track and not need any portable oxygen. Another thing too, I don't smoke so that should be a benefit to me as well. I hope?
Yay, they are landscaping again.
Last weekend they began laying the Apache Pink rock around our building and other areas. Its looking so nice outside. I hope they fix the area right outside my door to really make it look nice outside. They had to repair the sprinkler system as it was leaking and they don't want any water next to the buildings. Which is really no problem, I just want it to look nice.
While shopping yesterday!
At a wholesale place, they kept advertising free giveaways. I really don't pay attention to those because of course they want you to buy the product. Well yesterday, we were supposed to receive some free promotional products and that didn't happen. They guy apologized and said he already gave away all the free items and offered us a candy bar. I looked at him and said, no thank you and you shouldn't advertise free product and stop people from shopping like that. He again apologized. I walked away and finished my shopping because I had so much to do. And it wasn't exactly cool outside.
Enjoying the condo even more.
Last Monday we decided to buy some shades and hang up on our patio outside. It has helped with keeping it cool in here. I love it! It has cut down on our bill this week. We have been spending around $60 a week, last week it was only $50...not bad. See our electricity is all prepaid and we are able to manage what we use each an every day. Love it!
First things first.
When we moved here to Arizona and into this condo, we were shocked at the bars on the windows. We really didn't know why, until the landlord mentioned that this is his investment and wants to protect it. Even the door locks are extremely nice. I love them. It can be frustrating sometimes because there are 4 locks, two on each door. We also have a sliding glass door with a huge pole that fits in the grove, a door lock and another bar. I have never seen so many locks, but hey one can never be safe right?
Where has the week gone?
I've been so busy with cleaning all week long, I am hoping my parents and Brother are still coming out. As with anyone else, I would like for my place to look nice when they arrive. I still have a lot to do and will be extremely busy the rest of the day. I don't mind as I want it perfect.
