Yesterday kicked my butt. I'm still tired.
I set up all the utilities at the new house (close date: this Friday, keep your fingers crossed!) and called to cancel all the services here. I love Verizon FIOS but wow, their phone system leaves something to be desired. I think I was on the phone for at least an hour, being transferred 3 times and at one point while on hold, Greg beeped through and we had a 15 minute conversation. When he hung up, I was still on hold for another 10 minutes. I also called 4 maid services here for estimates to do a final deep clean at this house. $400 spent to get back a $4000 security deposit? Well worth it. Plus I'm literally running out of time.
I ordered my new washer and dryer (weee!) and a new French Door refrigerator with water and ice in the door (double weee!). This is the first time I've picked out new appliances (Greg did replace a dishwasher and stove at the Ohio house but I wasn't involved in choosing them). It's kinda nerve racking with all the choices (Libra!) but I'm really happy with them. And you know, it'll be good to be able to wash/dry clothes and keep our food cold at the new house. lol
Oh and I also went grocery shopping (although I'm trying to clear out the pantry and freezer starting now) and last night was the Cub Scout Pack Campfire meeting. For the last three years I've been in charge of reserving the fire ring at a local place and bringing all the smores supplies. Nothing like 20 boys running at you with pointy sticks and flaming marshmallows.
Flaming Marshmallows, that would be a good name for a band.
I'd like to rest but I have 5 Etsy orders to sew and also tonight is my Girl Scout troop's big ceremony where they bridge from Brownies to Juniors. As much as I occasionally complain about being the troop leader (the parents!), I'm really going to miss the girls. I did dole out food assignments but I need to pick up tablecloths, plates, napkins, balloons, candles, and so forth. All the little crummy stuff around the house is going to have to wait another day (scuff marks on the walls, steam clean the sofa, etc).
Um right, so let's just continue with the running around like a chicken with its head cut off act.
