We're moving!
That's right, we have another apartment, and I'm ready to move.
It's closer to downtown, closer to Sam's job, closer to shopping and a few other things. So, it's a good move, and it's only across town.
Now for the not great parts of it:
- the movers will be here on February 14th. That gives me just over 30 days to pack and get things ready to go.
- I need to tell our current complex we're leaving. I plan on doing that after they install the new dishwasher on Monday.
- I am already exhausted, but I have a ton of things to do and cannot rest. I fully plan on this being a "me" thing. Sam is sleeping and has been sleeping all day. I dunno what's wrong but 30 days to pack isn't much and we need to get moving. The only room I won't pack is Sam's, so it's all on him.
- I start packing tomorrow. I'm going to start in Son's room and hopefully get that taken care of except his clothing.
- Tomorrow I book the movers. We're going with Two Men and a Truck, because they were awesome when we moved them.
- Tomorrow, I also go to Uhaul to get a few things.
The timeline:
January:
- 11th book movers, grab a few supplies from UHaul, pack Son's room
- 12th Clean my room, garbage run, writer's group, petco run (since it's near the library)
- 13th Work
- 14th My closet, everything but clothing
- 15th Work
- 16th Son to Speech Books in the living room begin. Therapy
- 17th Work
- 18th Grocery run (soda mostly)
- 19th Bad Movie Sunday; start taking down lights.
- 20th Work
- 21st Finish books in living room
- 22nd Work
- 23rd Pack table in my room
- 24th Work; flight to Seattle
- 25th KRAKEN VERSUS PENS; hanging out. Things to do in Seattle!
- 26th MORE STUFF IN SEATTLE; fly home that afternoon/evening
- 27th Work
- 28th Call vet about pet boarding on the 14th, work on packing dad's stuff
- 29th Interview
- 30th Son to Speech, Pack my bathroom; therapy
- 31st Work

- 1st Garbage run; pack more books, redo boxes in living room
- 2nd Pay rent; pack up some of Sam's room/kitchen
- 3rd Work
- 4th Kitchen packing
- 5th Work
- 6th Pack up unused electronics
- 7th Work
- 8th Start packing up dry goods
- 9th Pack pictures; writer's group
- 10th Work
- 11th Finish packing kitchen
- 12th Work
- 13th Laundry, Son to Speech packing up clothing, therapy
- 14th Movers
- 15th Back to BW to clean
- 16th Back to BW to clean

This... is not going to be easy and yeah, most of the packing falls to me, because Sam has to pack his room and he takes forever, plus he has lots of fiddly little things.
