The leak saga continues..
May 4th 2011 15:29
No water appeared in our unit this morning and the walls began to dry. Later in the morning I received a call from the management office telling me that the owner was finally reached and would be at the unit sometime during the next day to investigate. After returning from Starbuck's later this afternoon there was again water leaking and wet walls. The water to the next door unit was turned on again. I was furious. I tried to call management but got no answer. I messaged the chairperson of the management committee telling her I would not stand by while my bedroom was being slowly destroyed. I said that it had been proven where the leak originated. After this message Kevin went to the plumbing closet in the corridor and shut the water off again. Shortly after this I received a message from the chairperson that the owner of the unit in question said he would repair the leak. No time frame was given. In my opinion it better be done ASAP and I want the owner to repaint the walls.
When I first started this blog I explained how the condominium was chosen, bought and decorated. I told about adding colorful walls and plants. I neglected to mention a few very important family members, who were added after setting up our new home. Kevin and I both wanted a dog, but that was out of the question. It's too difficult to have a dog in a condo (especially big dogs, which I like) and it is also not allowed. We compromised on a cat. We visited the Penang SPCA and Kevin fell in love with a year old orange tabby named Nero. So we adopted Nero and brought him home. Shortly after this we got a ferret, named Frank. He was very cute but boy did he bite. After both of us suffered some severe bites we decided to sell him to a pet shop. Then a number of months passed by when we had to go to the pet shop for some supplies and Kevin became excited about some pets he saw. I went over an saw four 4 month old prairie dogs imported from Texas, USA. I couldn't believe that they were being sold as pets. I told Kevin we have millions of wild ones back home and people shoot them, We ended up buying Chichi. I must admit he is really cute and affectionate. He also is very protective of both Kevin and myself, becoming agressive when other people are nearby. I might add that he barks when we come home and when he wants to be picked up.
After Chichi and Nero we got two aquaria. One is Kevin's and includes just cichlids. The other is mine and it houses ordinary community fish. More on the pets later.
