Memo

Shortly after I left for work today, I had a power outage.  I'm grateful for the gas stove that was able to stay working as it is independent of any electrical outages.

I just had my new washer and dryer installed and am currently doing my first load of laundry.  I have not decided on which of the remaining home improvement tasks I want to take on next during the Spring besides the AC tune-up.

Gonna try and take a quick nap.

I just ordered a washer and dryer; they should arrive sometime March 13.  I plan to install them myself.

I also just talked with my water company about my bill.  Initially they said it was correct, but when I asked them to compare it to my previous bill, they said it was not correct and will be giving me a partial refund on my next bill.
