Highlights: more painting, overhead storage rack in garage, new Ikea wall shelf, Tim & Stacy Reazor, Uncle T

Going down my list of projects to wrap up, painting the master bedroom & getting it ready to rent out was at the top of the list today. Finishing the installation of overhead storage shelves in the garage, and hanging a floating wall shelf in my room were the next on the list.

It was a treat to get a visit from an old squadron-mate of mine today: Tim & Stacy Reazor. They’re a colorful couple. Tim is still flying with HMM-163, and just finished the final phase of deployment workups. The squadron leaves soon. Stacy is a realtor, and worked with me to buy both properties. It’s good keeping in touch with them. Apparently there’s a way of having my mortgages reduced to 6% via the Soldiers & Sailors Relief Act, because I’m deployed overseas. Getting the banks to honor that, according to Tim, is a long and arduous exercise of grit and endurance; but well worth it. I’m afraid I won’t be able to tackle that one once I leave the country. Making international phone calls from 12 time zones away is too much of a pain in the butt. Calling from Indonesia is expensive too, and I don’t want to pay to sit on hold for the next available representative who is currently assisting other customers.

pick up Uncle T from airport, dinner in the gaslamp district downtown.
