i bought a duplex (!)

Recovering from the turnover marathon

Perhaps my father is right; I am officially too old to be pulling all-nighters. My friends who own rental property were all very impressed with me and my overnight industriuosness; their duplexes are all in much better shape than mine, so they aren’t quite as motivated about fixing them up.

It’s been almost a week now, since the great moving maintenance marathon, and I’m finally getting back to feeling myself again.

In retrospect, it may have been worth the money to hire painters. And possibly a cleaning crew, just in case the departing tenants don’t do a good job in cleaning. I’ll have to look into that for next time.
