My day started with a series of emails. An applicant to purchase an apartment asked if we could interview him tomorrow. I didn't want this. Yes, I know it was the sale of a soon to be former board member's apartment that I was willing to slow down. But I was not willing to change our schedule at the last moment. So, we scheduled an interview-only meeting for next week, where I expect not to have any problems with the applicant.
Next on my list was checking with the foreign birth registry for my second citizenship. They received my paperwork last August, and I should expect for it to hit a "case worker's desk" sometime next month or the month afterwards. Hopefully, if there are no problems, I will be a dual citizen with rights in 2 countries come this fall. (If I'm lucky, I won't have problems with a cruise I'll be taking in the near future.)
In my calendar, my dental appointment was scheduled for 2 pm. But the office had it scheduled for 3 pm. So, I was glad I double checked before leaving for the appointment. With this being said, my wallet ended up a bit more empty than planned, as I now have a "membership plan" that covers 2 cleanings and gives me 15% off of all work to be done. Considering that I will need a crown on my next visit, I'll be saving $470 in 4 weeks on a bill that would have cost me over $3,000. The plan almost pays for itself on my next visit.

All of this happened before 5 pm. Due to the shifting of the interview to next week, the co-op meeting was shifted to start at 6 pm. And I decided to leave my video off, so I wouldn't have to change back into masculine presentation for the meeting. One day, I'll be totally "out". But until then, I'll preserve my Mario identity for use with the co-op meetings.
This would be the quickest board meeting we would have in years. Due to the applicant interview being postponed AND our business with our mortgage holding bank being mostly resolved and under control (I won't say more on that), we had little to be briefed on. So, our meeting started on schedule, and by the end of our time with our managing agent's site representative, it was less than 90 minutes later. (Yes, we talked about non-co-op related stuff for another half hour. But that was social chat and not business chat and not counted as part of our meeting.)
When the meeting was over, I was tired. But I had to do some cleanup work, as the site manager was coming to my apartment in the morning to see an example of a window problem. So, I moved some stuff into empty storage containers, moved some dresses into the closet, and made many of the small storage containers easier to access (and later prune stuff from).

It was a busy day, and I am glad to be able to get a little sleep before being awakened early....
