SEED & STRAW, CABLE & INTERNET

Landscaping & Cable Installation

Monday was a work-filled day at the Starter Home 2.0 with the landscape crew on-site all day grading, seeding and strawing the front, back and side yards. This also put me to work in the evening, watering the lawn to ensure that the grass seed takes root over the course of the next several days. Time Warner Cable arrived in the afternoon to hook-up the cable and internet service, which involved running a new cable line from the power lines across the street to the house near the electrical service drop and took a good 3-4 hours to complete. A couple other miscellaneous items that were resolved in recent days included the installation of blinds in the window above the stairwell, and the expansion of the dining room table to be in the full open position to maximize seating capacity. Power washing and exterior caulking is scheduled for today and the lattice work under the porch should be installed by the end of the week.
