This morning Horizon Utilities dropped by to inspect our
units, being the inquisitive person I asked inspector Joe questions. He was
helpful and informative; one thing that caught my attention Horizon Utilities
has been commissioned by the Govt to educate consumers on how to conserve
electrical energy. Since hydro is covered in our rent it good to remind tenants
wasting electricity is costly.
Today is Sept 11 do you remember where you were on that terrible day in 2001? As for me it was my day off work, I got up around 8:45 am, I made coffee, turned on the TV morning news and actually saw the second plane slam into the WTC. At first I thought it was a trailer from an upcoming movie then I realized it was real. I immediately ran to my roommate and best friend's bedroom and shouted "America is under attack!" he looked at the TV then at me and said "Osama Bin laden". Isn't that amazing, my best buddy who follows world news suspected who was behind the attacks, later we found out he was right. It was a scary day for sure.
Inspector Joe checked my power bars and the refrigerator and
offered to replace the light fixtures with low energy light bulbs and gave some
good advice. At the end of the inspection, I asked how my unit held up on
energy conservation. He replied I’m doing well. *Hurray For Tony* :)
Inspector Joe & I had a little chat, he mentioned if we
don’t start conserving hydro the Province will have to build another nuclear power
plant to keep up with the demand. And guess who’ll be flipping the bill…..Us Canadians!.
Since I passed the inspection I feel good enough to give my
unit a good shake down ie: scrub the floors, wash the walls, rearrange the furniture, clean and
wipe the counters and the bathroom. Who
knows maybe this weekend I’ll wash the windows for all the tenants on my
floor. ;)
Looks like the new KMHC superintendent Francois Tramblay and
I will get along fine, he’ll listen in regard to maintenance and has experience in the Custodial
Arts. :)
