I've found someone who can do the painting work in my apartment for a good price. It's a friend of one of my neighbors. According to the neighbor, she can do this very well. Now I have to make an appointment with her and will call her tomorrow evening.

I simply forgot this. But it doesn't matter now. I have talked to the janitor again when I reported the disturbance of the peace at the end of last month. He said that the tenants also have to do something, i.e. a mutual concession.
Incidentally, it was the first time I reported a disturbance to the janitor, as I normally shy away from conflict. One night, the neighbor above me and his friends got so crazy that I felt compelled to take action. The other neighbors said that I should have called the police too. I had thought about it, but I was afraid that I would make things worse.
As for the move, others said that I shouldn't let the disturbers of the peace chase me away. That's easier said than done because they don't have to put up with the noise pollution every day.
Nevertheless, doubts about my plan arise from time to time. Because I actually like my apartment, the very leafy area and, on top of that, the apartment is very cheap - if only it weren't for those noisy people who spoil everything for me.
I think I'll take a two-pronged approach: I'll look for a new apartment and log the disturbances. I'll keep submitting the latter to the janitor. And maybe the noisemakers will get enough warnings to get them kicked out so that I don't have to move. Both can take a long time.
Next subject. After 12 years, my microwave broke down. It no longer heated the food. I didn't want to put any money into repairing the ancient device, so I bought a new one for around 90 euros and disposed of the old one in the electronic waste container. As I rely on public transport, transporting the new microwave was an adventure. I managed the distances on foot with lots of short breaks. Yes, I could have had it delivered. But I didn't want to wait that long for the parcel and at the moment there is hardly a concierge around to take it in my absence (many of the landlord's high-rise buildings have one or more concierges).
