Received email from ACCT asking whether HTIRE would be filling out for for the currently “injuncted” Official Beneviciary Information request which is a data collection process created by the “Financial Crimes Enforcement Network”; as the requirement is currently not an officially mandated process TOMMY decided to not mess with it. I replied to ACCT, letting him know of TOMMY decision and began creating list of new research points to better understand FCEN and the BOI forms process. Copied TOMMY on all replies to ACCT.
Inputted all waiting Quickbooks invoices, bills, deposits and checks; also sent revised copy of most recent ATLAS invoice to REECE @ ATLAS due to a small math error on the original hand written invoice; copied TOMMY on communication with ATLAS re: revised invoice.
Did weed eating, mowing and blowing of entire back yard/walkway and back porch area
Did further rearranging of new cat “relocation” which involves him now residing on the back porch 90% of the time due to constant vomiting inside of house (TOMMY particularly sensitive to this so figured some sort of attempt to avoid agitation of him would be beneficial).
Printed and filed most recent JOEL AMEX food purchase items while supervising the HTIRE shop/brick and mortar location while TOMMY was on regular (every 1.5 month VEGAS trip).

Printed and filed recent returns of air purifier and air monitor control for JOEL office and filed in TOMMY office cabinet for reference when HTIRE AMEX statement arrives around ~23rd of Jan 2025. Also made note of the Airfanta 3Pro air purifier invoice which is the device I kept for daily prevention of dust build up in JOEL personal workstations (non HTIRE items) which I use to see to all HTIRE work on a daily basis; intention is primarily to assist in dust prevention and short life of workstatioin fans/cooling system due to the frequent/daily use of JOEL personal workstations for contract work for HTIRE

Received email from MCGEE with attached invoice; emailed back for clarification as to whether the invoice was paid already or if I needed to pay it; email language said to “pay invoice” so double checking before filing/posting. My suspicion, in light of the invoice language showing a $0.00 balance is that the invoice was paid at the time of purchase and that the MCGEE rep simply meant that I needed to input the invoice as paid. Copied TOMMY on MCGEE email correspondence
Booked TOMMY parking for Las Vegas trip from 01/16 thru 01/19 via Hobby terminal garage parking online portal; printed entry code and receipt/signed/dated/photo logged and left on TOMMY home office desk

Received random request from TOMMY to log on and check his HTIRE AMEX account due to losing his card. Logged on, check account, then froze account to see if he would find the lost card. TOMMY found his card. Then I logged back in and “UNFROZE” his card per his request.

Received random request from TOMMY to research new NewsMax stock IPO. Did cursory research and replied via email to TOMMY that reputable sources were saying “stay away from it” … snake oil, etc. Then said clearly that I could not assist with any volatile stocks work and that he’d have to deal with a payed advisor for anything stock related. Also said I’d be more than happy to assist with strategy on anything safe and “risk free” such as traditional money markets, etc. due to those positions being the sort that would only fail if the entire global banking system failed at the same time.
Phone call to Allstate Tech Protection to get approval for replacement of failed Harris Tire electronics device
Printed Allstate replacement/reimbursement approval and filed in AMEX folder in TOMMY office cabinet

Received final word from Amica insurance regarding reimbursement for contractor payment that was necessary after Hurricane Beryl; this was a two month process finally completed. The first property claim was for the Derecho storm which I also managed but for Derecho storm I dealt with A Watson at Amica and he handled/finished our claim very quickly. The following, soon thereafter Hurricane Beryl event claim was managed by JASMIN at Amica, a completely different representative who did not return my weekly emails and phone calls for over two months. Today, however, another completely different Amica representative contacted me, sounding more so like a manager or leadership person and informed me that he has facilitated the provision of the last/final check for contractor reimbursement associated with home repairs after Hurricane Beryl.
Informed TOMMy of the incoming $1700.00 check and attempted to describe the two months of work it took to get it but I’m not sure he heard me saying only something like, “Well, they should have given us twice as much!” … which I found odd as he had arranged for false documents to be produced by the contractor which actually already equaled twice what we actually paid the contractor.
Made note to publish that event/work as further indication of how I “pay rent” here at our property in lieu of having actual money to pay rent financially (I make $400 a week or so after taxes so paying rent in the traditional regard is impossible; therefore, I cover my part by managing all such insurance matters and doing all other property maintenance internally and externally
