No, not mine - Joan's. Not what you are thinking: Joan wants to have rain gutters installed on the south side of the house... something to keep the water, when it rains heavy - and it will do that again some time, to keep it from pooling around the air conditioners. She scheduled a guy to come out and give us a price.
Her new friend, Tony, called to confirm and was 5 minutes early in getting here. Well, that is certainly a good start; none of this "between 8:00 am and midnight" kinda wait things. He was here about 30 minutes, sketched up what Joan wants, had her pick a color (to match what we have for rain gutters in the front of the house), and gave us a tentative price, with the firm price coming after he checks for one unique piece we'll need around the pergola.
I would call that a positive first meeting.
For the record, the rain that hit here while we were in California were heavier than the area has had in over 7 years. Also, the first time in over 100 years that there was 5 consecutive days of rain in Arizona. No, not solid rain that whole time - heavy rain on one day, much lighter on the other 4.

To go along with that whole rain situation, there is a board meeting for our HOA this evening - yeah, one week after the last meeting. The bid came in for repairs to fix the erosion in our park thanks to that unprecedented rain. It's a pretty sizeable number, so we need to discuss it with the homeowners present. Well, those that want to know. We'll see how many show up this evening.
