Thursday was me,
indoors, accomplishing nothing of significance. I had errands to run but didn’t,
because I’d opted to believe rain in the virtual world over the real world
predicting not.
The weather that day
was dark and gloomy, but it did not rain.
Oh well.
Friday was driving
out-of-the-area to Trader Joe’s to replenish my supply of pink Himalayan salt.
Salt is salt, but the
Himalayan Crystals are supposedly rich in minerals, better for the body than
iodized sea salt, beneficial in strengthening bones, lowering blood pressure
and detoxifying the body of toxins.
Though I made the
switch from iodized salt to Himalayan Crystals in March of last year, I can’t
attest to any of these claims as being true because I can’t say if the benefits
I’ve experienced to my overall health is due to the crystals or because of clean
eating, but I like the subtle flavor enough to drive miles for a bottle, plus I
like that the salt crystals are so pretty.
At any rate, heading
out to Trader Joe’s, I took the long way to the car – detouring by the boxes to pick up mail
and through the Community Room to see if anything new has been posted to the
board.
Nothing new, but I
did run into Apache who said he’d just been to the office to leave yet more documentation
for Corporate Boss Lady, relative to getting the pit bull off the property, and
was told “she is no longer with us”.
WHAT?!
That’s huge!
The second biggest
shocker since the former Community Manager – that mean cruel Nurse Ratched was fired by way of being escorted out of her office, off the property and into the waiting arms of
police officers.
Did Corporate Boss
Lady quit?
Not bloody likely.
Not the woman whose position was so powerful that the mere mention of her name by
residents would cause office staff to shake in their boots, Head Maintenance
Guy to get off his lazy behind and begrudgingly do his job.
Was Corporate Boss
Lady fired?
For sure.
Another casualty of
whatever it was that went wrong with that government super bowl of inspections.
Inasmuch as the
re-inspection is coming up, I’d been wondering why I’d not seen her hovering
around.
Wowwee wow!
General consensus is
more heads will roll, as foreseen by The Seer when she had that image of
dominos falling, because though repairs to the H Building have been made, the
re-inspectors want to look at not only units but also garages.
That’s a problem.
I can’t remember the
last time I saw a garage around here with an actual car in it. Mostly, the
garages are packed floor to ceiling with items residents were unwilling to give
up when they downsized from 3/4/5-bedroom houses to these senior units.
Not only are the
garages full of boxed items, but I’ve seen washers, dryers, stoves,
refrigerators, lamps, couches, rugs, wall décor, etc. So much stuff that it’s futile for
residents to try to find anything because, when they open the garage door, they’re
faced with an impenetrable wall of stuff.
Community Manager
will be returning from her suspension on Monday and it looks like her first
duty will be to address the garage situation because a notice was posted to our
doors that “If you have a garage, your presence is require (sic) at the Leasing Office on Monday 4/23 between 2pm-4pm” ... “Prior
to the apartment visit, we will be conducting a garage inspection on April 24th between 9am – 4pm”.
Not much time to
correct what looks to be a substantial roadblock to passing the re-inspection.
