Annoying day
Well, Alex cleaned up a lot of stuff today, with the goal of fixing whatever imagined issues the apartment manager notified us about.
I'm a little worried that he may have gotten rid of some stuff that he didn't want to, though. :/ I hope not, because I never wanted him to get rid of anything he'll regret losing.
I'd intended that we get clarification from management before we did anything, but he already moved a lot of stuff out of sight. It does look visually neater, though again, it was *clutter*, not anything dirty in a way that could create problems. And things like the laundry need to get done anyway... I'm just annoyed by the principle of it all, I think, and the fact that their complaints weren't accurate.
Extra frustration of the day: my card wouldn't go through when Alex tried to get a money order for our rent, and then also declined on another purchase.
Everything looked okay on the account, but I called the bank... and yes, they'd frozen my card, because they suspected fraud when he tried to get the rent check. Apparently there's been a lot of fraud at our local supermarket chain, so it flagged as suspicious.
I appreciate that they look for stuff like that, but... we also have a history of buying a money order of roughly the same amount every month around this time, ugh.
(And yet they did not flag the time someone fraudulently used my card to buy $500 worth of gas at four different stations in a neighboring city?)
I had good intentions about what I was going to do with my evening, but... I am very much not feeling it.

I'd still follow up on the letter and ask for clarification. They might keep something like that in your file and use it later on as an excuse for whatever.

Yeah, I certainly would hate for it to be held over us at some future date. The letter said they intend to re-inspect the apartment, and will contact us with a date for that at some point.
Annoyingly, management took off really early today and won't be back until Tuesday due to the long weekend. Things look visually neater after the reorganizing that Alex did, but I want to make sure we're addressing whatever issues they
