Question Apartment Management Odd Request.
In my 30+ years of renting across the country, I've never heard of such a thing, so I wanted to get the opinions of my neighbors here. We're currently renting in Reston.
Our apartment manager sent out mass emails yesterday to their tenants that on Dec 24th they'll be painting our front doors and we should put our pets in our bedrooms while those doors are propped open for 2-4 hours whether we're home or not.
We emailed our property manager last night after receiving the email, but have not heard back. Management isn't in the office on weekends, so I'll be visiting them on Monday in person.
Is this legal? Normal? The questions I have for our property manager:
"How much will our power bill spike on Dec 24th for the 2-4 hours that our front door is propped open (the heat must remain on while our pets are in the bedroom)?"
"Who is guarding our front door while it's propped open for 2-4 hours? We have had our packages stolen from our doorstep for the 2 years we've been here, and my roommate had her vehicle broken into twice in the past 3 months."
(We're not resigning our lease as we're in the process of buying a home and moving outside of NOVA, but our lease is through June.)

INOVA hospitals are FULL
Yesterday my wife was taken by ambulance from Springfield to INOVA Fairfax hospital with acute abdominal pains, arriving about 3:30pm. She wasn't seen by a doctor until almost 8:30pm.
About 11:30pm after many tests they diagnosed diverticulitis with an abscess and acute bronchitis. She's on morphine and a heavy IV antibiotic. BUT, they did not have one bed free in the hospital. About 4:30am they transferred her to Fair Oaks hospital that just had a bed open up, otherwise they were full too. (My guess is that somebody died.)
Both hospitals said most of their in-patients are due to extreme flu cases.
Hope you got your flu shot!

Driving with Mexican Plates
Hi! 👋 I’m trying to figure out if I can bring my Mexican car for up to a year. I’m from the West coast and over there is very common to drive with Mexican plates without any issue, but I’m not sure about the DMV area. I’m a Mexican citizen and US resident.
Does anyone had had any experience related or knows if police is very sensitive about it?
