It's hump day!! (insert Geico ad here) And I am feeling pretty good. A tiny bit achy, but I slept pretty well, though I woke up a few times for a bathroom break, but nothing horrible. Not really suprising, since yesterday ended up being stressful.

On our lease, it mentioned that the total security deposit was $1200. Which awesome, I had that. But then I went in to pay it, and lo', I'd forgotten about the pet deposit of $300. Problem. Cue me doing more math than I've ever had to in my life, as well as my sister doing the same. We got within $30 and Jess threw in some money in their paypal from a friend who sent it when dad died (probably assuming we'd get dinner one night) and that a fan of their writing sent them. And we just snuck by. So, as of 4:59pm, our deposit is all paid off.

As a result, by the time bedtime rolled around, I was 100% wrung out. We listened to Travis and Teresa McElroy's show Shmanners, and I heard about the first 1/4 of the show before I was asleep.

Today, I have work, and hopefully a quiet day.

It's weird to think that all this has happened in under 3 weeks. Dad will be dead 3 weeks tomorrow. Last night, I asked Jess if they thought I was moving too fast. I mean, I started looking at apartments the Saturday after he died. Was that too soon? We have 1 yr to make a decision on the house, but I didn't want to be moving in the summer. Instead, we're going to be moving in the dead of winter. Whoops.

The current plan is that we take custody of the apartment on 12/31. At that point, we'll have BGE set up. Hopefully, we can get Fios set up around 1/2. My sister's new bed will come between 1/2 and 1/4. Movers will come on the 3rd, and get whatever we decide we're taking. (Mostly Jess and my bed, and whatever we've had delivered to the house. Jess and I move in that night with Boodle. Hopefully, between 12/31 and the 6th, internet has been set up. We put together a TON of furniture on the 4th, 5th and 6th. On the 6th and 7th, more furniture will be delivered. On the 8th, I'll start working again. It's a well laid plan, which means it's going to have some huge snafus, but we'll deal.

And on that note, time for me to go get myself together for work. Everyone have a stellar Wednesday!
