Monday, November 11, 2013: I found eight possible leads on unfurnished apartments that I might be able to afford in the Sunday, November 10, Las Vegas Review-Journal. I will call at least four of them on Tuesday. Tuesday, November 12, 2013: Called four apartments for information, will call the rest this afternoon or after I eat something (10:06 am PST). No on has called back so I will have to call them again tomorrow. Wednesday, November 13, 2013: None of the apartments I left messages with called back, so I have to figure out which ones I want to contact again the call them tomorrow afternoon. On the bright side, I did get some newspapers carried to the garage for recycling on Saturday and I got the trashcan rolled to the curb this morning so I can start filling it again. Thursday, November 14, 2013: I called the number for the E. Lake Mead apartments again and still no answer, so I left another message. I'll make another attempt tomorrow morning. Friday, November 15, 2013: I was up until midnight printing off applications, phone numbers, and addresses to senior living places. However, before I make too many phone calls I will have to purchase more minutes. |
