I had to be ready for visitors at 9:30 today, as I had to show my co-op's site manager what was wrong with many of our windows. This isn't much, save that I had to sort through a lot of stuff I plan to toss out or give away, and neaten up the apartment as much as possible before the site manager arrived. (My place grew out of hand during Covid, as I was dealing with the absence of both XFGJ and FCP in my life, followed by the death of my father. So, it's a lot of mess that still needs to be cleaned up, and I needed to minimize the visual presence of Marian while she would be here.

At 9:30 sharp, our site manager arrived, and I showed her the problems with our windows. Now, I think she has a handle on what the typical problems are and what has to be done to resolve them. However, I wonder what she thinks about after seeing my place.
Once the site manager had left, I changed from presenting as Mario to presenting as Marian, My niece and I had to postpone our zoom meeting until next week. So, that gave me a little time to rest before going out for dinner. (I needed a nap, as I didn't sleep well the night before.) Around 4:00, I started getting ready to go out, and ended up at the diner around 5:00. Service was sloppier than usual, as I don't think the waitress had that much experience. But once I got the dish I wanted, I was stuffed to the gills. (In this case, the expression "to the gills" is appropriate, as I had ordered crab meat stuffed filet of sole.)
I was tired enough to sleep when I got home, but a woman's work is never done - 2 of the 3 loads of laundry had to be done, and I made sure to take care of that before shutting down for the day.
