beansideIt's Saturday morning and I am tired. We had Frostmaiden last night, and even though I stopped it a few minutes before 10, I'm still kind of wiped out this morning. But it's okay, I only have to work for 4 hours and then I can relax until it's time to play at 3pm. I ended up cancelling the evening game, because I haven't done nearly enough prep work to get through it. It's an older module that uses a different system, so I have to figure out all the monster's information in the new system. Some monsters are still being used, so I can just drop and drag from the compendium into the game. Others are unique, and are a royal pain in the ass to work out. I'd planned to work on it in August, but then Dad happened, and I got nothing done.
Yesterday was pretty quiet. I didn't do a whole lot aside from a bit of prep for my two games. Frostmaiden was just reviewing a bit of what had happened, and what the current plans were. The rest of the work was on todays game. Which thankfully, is a prewritten module, so I just need to follow the story and I'm good. I have a feeling this might be a longer than one shot game. There's a lot to it.
It was so nice to get into Frostmaiden again last night. The week has been such a shitshow, it was nice to have that to cap it off with something enjoyable.
The nice people from the oxygen supply picked up the condenser and spare tanks, so that's one less thing. I'm looking for places that we can donate the medical equipment, but it's been slow going. I think that's going to be something I do during my lunch breaks next week.
The other thing I did this week was start planning a very slow, very gentle apartment hunt. I can't handle more than 2 apartment visits per week, and we've got a lot of places that I'm interested in. After some thought, we decided to stick with my sister for at least a few years. So we're looking for either a 2 bedroom with den or a 3 bedroom. I've got two scheduled this weekend, and one that I'm really excited about on Tuesday.
The current plan is that once we've divyed up dad's retirement accounts, I'm going to withdraw enough to pay off the car, and some older bills that are impacting my credit, so it can start working it's way back up. Then, at the same time, we start saving all we can for security deposit and move. As we clean the house, we also start packing, and I rent a storage unit for some of the boxes. Come the end of March, we move into the new place, and hire someone to deep clean the old place and possibly to clean out the attic, because I don't know that any of us can do that.
Then, we turn the keys over to the reverse mortgage people and sell the fuck out of it, potentially making something in the process.
There's something very appealing about moving. Right now, we're living in a generational house, and there is shit from when my grandfather, great grandfather and grandmother all lived here. Add on my parents strata, and ours, and it's a lot. I want to winnow shit down and only take what we need, so that we can start over fresh without the past holding us down. New start, and we hire a cleaning person to come in every other week to dust and vacuum.
Okay, time for me to get myself together for work. Everyone have a wonderful Saturday!
