Pass the Dutchie...


Another month, another post.

I know, I'm still being bad. Been busy too, though.

As of this past weekend, I'm pretty much moved in with S. and her Mom. Got a few loose ends to straighten out, then I'm done with the Mountain. I've wanted to move from there shortly after I moved in. Ex was against it and I couldn't get my stuff in order fast enough when we seperated to pull it off.

Oh, well.

So, I'm out, now. The basement at S's place is PACKED. I've got a 6' table set up with my computer on it on one side of the room, then shelves on the other in front of the window loaded with boxes and crates. In the bedroom (also in the basement), there's another set of shelves blocking the door to the outside. Very cramped and it's still a hell hole.

There is a very bright side coming up, however.

This Friday S. and I are going on vacation.

To JAMAICA!!!

We're going for 5 days and 4 nights to the Sunset Beach Resort in Montego Bay. All inclusive, every room with a view of the ocean. AWESOME!

I definately need this vacation. This last month has ben tough with the move. I've got so much garbage in front of the house, I'm curious as to when (if?) the garbage men will take it all. It includes my old bed. That bed was a gift from my parents, I believe, when Ex and I got married - almost 11 yeas ago.

I got a storage facility and rented a UHaul truck for the last two weekends to haul stuff to there and to the house.

And, of course, both weekends it is pouring rain. The days in between were beautiful. Not hot, not cold. Just lovely. But, the moving weekends bookended them perfectly with wet, wet, wet.

The second weekend was worse. Lost a few boxes in shipment because the bottoms of them were so soaked.

What a mess.

I've been changing over my address and cancelling services to the house, too.

  • Propane - cancelled

  • Credit card - address changed

  • Cable - cancelled

  • Phone - cancelled

  • BlockBuster - cancelled


  • Still gotta finish up with the electric (landlord wants it left on, but transferred to his name), my bank, passport (going out of country at the end of the week, so, now is not a good time to change that), car insurance, health insurance and my taxes at work.

    Other than that stuff, I think I'm done.

    4 days until vacation, 4 days until vacation, 4 days until vacation...

    It's my mantra now.
