Today was a boring day. Sent Ed to work in the morning and then off to highway US-101 where there was a major jam heading south due to an accident. We were stuck in the jam for 1/2 an hour and was late for our appointment with the carpet cleaning guy. Appointment was for 9am but I arrived only at 9.15am (left at 8.40am). Anyway, luckily Ken Harte was also late coz he was lost as he couldn't find our home. He came at 9.30am and he measured the areas where the carpets needs to be vacuumed and came up with a quotation for US$753 for approx 2,500 sq ft. If I wanted to protect the carpet with Teflon, it's another US$388 and I agreed but unfortunately, he said he doesn't have enough of it to coat all the carpets. So, in the end, settled for just cleaning and vacuuming for now and should we do it again in a year's time, we'll ask him to coat it with Teflon then. He told me it'll take 3-4 hours to complete but in the end, he started at 10am and didn't finish till 3.30pm. I was in a hurry to quickly pay him and leave the house coz I had another appointment back at Homewood Suites Hotel at 4pm for the Lexus to be delivered. And guess what, I gave him a check but didn't sign it. Now, how silly of me!!! Anyway, managed to call him upon reaching the hotel and told him about my boo-boo and he said he'll come by again the next day to get it signed. That's really nice of him. Anyway, I like this guy coz he's very professional and doesn't goof off on the job.
Luckily, US-101 highway wasn't jammed on the way home so, made it back at 3.58pm to collect my Lexus. Black sapphire is the color we chose. Looks almost like black but sexier, hahaha. The car is nice - has moon roof, GPS, heated and leather seats.
At night, all of us ate in the hotel. Was too tired to venture out. Ok, adios for now...
