I guess a certain stage in life, and the things that comes with it, makes one ponder the universe and mortality.

Fridge Manual
That’s precisely, no EXACTLY, what the ‘Thingie Area’ is for. Bought a new fridge (Frigidaire FPBC2278UF) six or so months ago. As with most people, we “file away” the owner’s manual for later reference only to search for it when wanted (to order air and water filter replacements) and can’t remember where we actually put it.…

Home Reflooring in Review
Two weeks after the reflooring was completed and we have slowly moved the furniture and everything back in from the lanai, I took a look at how things blend. I’m a functional perspective person and matching/blending comes a distant second to me. So Lou picked out the flooring. I think it looks good.
So, as a last look.…

House Flooring All PAU!
Arthur and Charlie came today to finish up the reflooring. Sam came this past Wednesday and finished laying the vinyl planks, and today Arthur and Charlie took measurements, went to Home depot (or Lowe’s) and got the baseboards, the cut, painted and installed them. All done! Now we just have to bring all the stuff back in from the lanai.…

Redoing flooring Continues
Redoing the home flooring continued today as Arthur does the job on weekends. He and his guys (Sam and Charlie) did floor sanding/smoothing and sealing (minor cracks and the joints in the concrete slab floor), and then started laying the flooring.
I’d say they’re did 75% of it today, just needing to finish off the dining and family room area.…

House Reflooring 2022
Here we go with the next major home improvement project! Lou has wanted the first floor of the house redone in hardwood flooring. Hardwood is more expensive though and had other drawbacks we didn’t want to deal with (moisture damage issues, etc.), so we opted for vinyl instead.
We had Arthur Galang come over last week to estimate dimensions and then picked up the vinyl panels at Lowes.…

Roof Trashed from the birds!
I had a guy who posted on the NextDoor app about being able to install wire mesh around roof solar panels come over to look at our roof and panels about a month ago. John Myers does these install jobs on the side, not a business. He’s an Army AD Captain, Aviator. He had agreed to do our panels when we’re ready, and we waited until Ho’a Solar did their work on the inverters and possibly give us an estimate if they did it.…

Signs of aging out???
The signs are starting to show up, getting old….
Pigeons destroying the roof
Lou scheduled the solar company (Ho’a Solar Inc.) for today to replace some bad inverters, and also inspect and give an estimate to clean out underneath the panels and put netting up to keep the pigeons out. We’ll see what that will cost. Damned pigeons!!!
