5 things make a post
Oct. 7th, 2022 10:51 pmThings and stuff:
1. We have sent out the first renewal leases, but only a tiny handful, and I don't expect to send more out any time soon.
The renewal leasing process this year is... let's go with fraught, yes? ( details behind the cut )
I keep wanting to append, "I'm so sorry! We're trying to fix this!" to every renewal rate email I send out. :(
Anyway, we'll keep trying and hopefully the VERY LOW rate of renewal leases will jog Company Owner into being somewhat more reasonable.
2. I have technically finished my tax prep CE (in that I have completed the required number of credit hours), but I still have some courses in progress because learning is good for its own sake.
3. I cooked actual food two nights ago! I haven't really cooked all summer -- I hate adding heat to my apartment when I have the AC running, and also I never had the spoons -- so it was nice to get back into the saddle, as it were, even if all I made was Laddie's hotdish and steamed broccoli. :)
4. I've been trying to tidy up my office a little bit each day, which has been going moderately well so far. I've thrown out a bunch of stuff left over from my predecessors because upon reflection I had no justification for keeping it, filed some other stuff, and cleared out various items and papers that had been collecting on my desk in an unsorted pile of "things I will deal with at some point". I have also brought in a little bowl to hold my work keys, and I think my next task is to work out a system for actually making use of the wall-mounted filing box thingy that I finally cleared all the old paint samples out of.
5. All my Yuletide nominations have been approved. :D
There are doubtless other things I am forgetting, but that seems like a reasonable place to end a post, so.
