Today I had the Safe Systems security system installed. And I feel so much better, even though we accidentally did set if off a couple of times. And the response time from the service was amazing. It didn’t take them more than 15 seconds to call about the alarm!

They called me in the morning to let me know when they were coming. Jen, the sales rep, came with the tech and stayed the entire time.  First they explained what exactly they were going to do to make sure I was okay with everything and that all of my concerns were addressed. Then the tech installed the system and tested it. They walked with me through the house to let me know exactly what was where and answered any questions I had. Then they showed my how the system worked and how to arm and disarm it in every way possible (and there are a few of them!). They would not leave until they were certain I understood the system and could operate it. And just as were done, AJ came home and Jen spent even more time explaining everything to her and make sure that she understood everything. They spent most of the day here and just generally were absolutely wonderful.

I feel much safer now and hope that I finally will be able to sleep again. Just knowing that I am protected helped me immensely. I may live in a safe neighborhood where people still watch out for each other, but that does not guarantee that nothing ever happens. I just found out that my neighbor noticed that my curtains were closed (they never are), but thought I was just trying to keep the heat out. So often people will notice little things that are off, but rationalize it because burglaries just don’t enter your mind in a neighborhood like this.Well, I and the neighbors know differently now. And I have the feeling that a few of them might just get their own security system!

And I know that for the rest of my life, I will never again be without a security system! I know that, tomorrow, I will be able to go back to work without having to wonder all day what I will find when I get home in the evening. I won’t have to walk around the house looking for anything out of order. I am beginning to feel safe again.

Have a good night, everyone, I intend to. And if you don’t have a security system, get one!
