As of today, Stately Thomas Manor is now secured with an alarm system that is monitored. The representative who came out last week from the monitoring company came out this morning and got everything squared away. The system is hooked into the phone line and calling out in the event of an alarm being sounded, and the siren is quite loud and obnoxious. Tomorrow morning, my buddy and I will be walling up the breach in my basement. Once that is done, Stately Thomas Manor will be back as it was before and secured.
The last thing on the agenda will be to purchase some window coverings for the back windows. From there, I just need to follow-up with my insurance company and see what is happening on that front.
Some interesting movement on the job front, too. More on that later, though.
did you watch ‘home alone’ for ideas?
I’ve been having nightmares all week about someone breaking into my house. So sorry, JJT. I can’t imagine. Glad you’ve managed to take control so quickly.
j$: I should have used the paint bucket trick. It would have been awesome.
Charissa: Actually, the alarm is working and the way they got in was barricaded yesterday. Even if they get into my crawlspace, they will be unable to get in given that we more or less walled in that opening. Suck it, thieves!
