My mind asks, "what can I do to prepare for tomorrow's move?"
The moving procedure is going to be complicated precisely because we are trying to be simple and cheap as possible. We COULD just rent a bigass truck and haul everything down at once but no. We are taking 2 trips. The first trip is tomorrow. The second trip will be anytime before the first of February.
I have all the apartment viewings lined up starting 10am Sunday morning. Sunday will be a big day for checking out the potential new neighborhoods. I would be happy if we found a place that same day, but I also know the value of shopping around.
My years of experience bartending is helping me go into a neighborhood full of restaurants/bars with a bombass resume.
The car is empty and ready to be loaded tomorrow morning. It's been sputtering to life on ignition the past couple times we've used it, so hopefully it doesn't break down this week.
Everything is set and ready! Bank account is opened, money is secure, all e-bills have been switched from the local credit union account to the national bank account so I don't have to deal with any overdrafts on the cu account when I go to close it later this coming week.
I've been nervous about leaving the area I know well. It's not the best area but I know where to go when I need this or that. I know which clinics to go to and which to avoid...I had a sweet bar job...but now all of that is over. I will have to explore a new area with all of the knowledge I've accumulated out here. I know what bad is and what good is now.
All that is left to do now is sleep at a reasonable time and wake up early to start packing the car up. Then the drive down and an eventual arrival at a sanctuary also known as a family home. This is it!
