today was a stressful day, as the new neighbor below us began sanding their floors. it was a long struggle to be heard and to try and get some answers. the management agency wasn't responding to me, so greg and i finally included a board member, whom we happened to once talk with, in the correspondance. while that board member has been helpful in listening to us, she hasn't been able to say anything more than that the work has been "halted for now." i think our neighbor must know more board members than us.
i did manage to make a beef stew and pluto relaxed with my little dorrit book.
