This is a weekly blog post that I'm calling Apartment Hell Life. I've mentioned a few times some of the crazy things that have gone on in and around my apartment complex and in my neighborhood in the past 27 years that I've lived here and people keep telling me I should write a book. But instead of a book, I've decided to share the crazy things that have happened in and around my apartment complex in the last 27 years here in a weekly blog post.
Maintenance has been fixing the pipes around here where in the past we had raw sewage leaking from them.
They dug out the old ones and are installing the new pipes.
Maintenance was right in front of my window here replacing the pipes. At least hopefully we won't have to deal with the raw sewage problem again.
The fire department showed up at 11PM one night. Their lights were so bright all you can see is the lights from the truck. lol There was no fire and they didn't stay long so I have no idea why they were called. I do know from experience that when someone falls down in their home that you can call for an assist to get help back up from the fire department. I had to do that a couple of times when my late husband was on home hospice and he fell and I couldn't pick him up by myself. So when I see them stay for just a couple of minutes that's what I think it might be. But who knows.
It was a very quiet week.
The high this week was 71F/21C
The low this week was 47F/8C
So that's it for this week's Apartment Hell Life! Be sure to come back next week for more.
It's comforting to know that a phone call way there is help if you need it. And it's good to see that management is getting the pipes fixed for you. Our low tonight is going to be 5 degrees and I only wish my high was going to be a warm 47, lol.
ReplyDeleteI sure hope the new pipes end the problem of raw sewage leaks. That was a flagrant violation of even the most basic health standards.
ReplyDeleteGood news on the pipes!
ReplyDeleteLooks more like prisoners digging holes to escape...
ReplyDeleteI haven’t heard of fire departments doing that.
ReplyDeleteA quiet week indeed...at least it makes up for the previous one LOL.
ReplyDeleteSo glad those pipes were promptly fixed
ReplyDeleteIt's funny how mysterious those quick fire department visits are, but your explanation about an assist call is very logical. Sounds like you definitely have enough material for a book.
ReplyDeleteRaw sewage is definitely a health hazard. Glad to hear they're fixing the issue.
ReplyDeleteQuiet is good, especially with what are normal weeks where you live. I hope the raw sewage issue is solved completely with this work. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteIt's about time they replaced those pipes, it took long enough.
ReplyDeleteI think a quiet week is good news. I wonder about the sewage pipes. Is the old owner fixing it for the sale? Or is the new owner fixing it now that they own the place?
ReplyDeleteI can't believe those pipes are finally being dealt with. It's a Christmas Miracle!
ReplyDeleteI’m glad they’re fixing the pipes.
