Monday Reflection

 Feeling good. Had therapy and it was good. She suggested I find a black community. I had a strong response to that. That's not the solution. But she did help me to see that staying in NC is not the solution.

I didn't cry but I had a nice bowel movement right before.

I'm happy that I'm all packed. The dishwasher is loaded. I will run it once the washer stops. Everything is packed haphazardly because I really don't have the motivation to do more. 

I was able to find the loan information I need for my 2nd mortgage. I just have one more document I need to find when I get home and my checklist for the pre-closing should be completed. 

I'm still unclear what I'm going to do about my furniture. I didn't really get a confirmation from the donation place so I will have to call them. I need to come up with a couple back-up plans. The Seller Rep contacted me to let me know that I have to take the washer and dryer with me so there's that. I did ask to push the closing back one day. My pre-planning seemed to flow better with just one more day. And even more so since the closing instructions say to be out the midnight before. Which makes sense but somehow seeing it in black and white made it more concrete. So I think a Thursday closing will help. It will reduce overlap and I can move into Interim Apartment on Tuesday. 

I really am looking forward to having less stuff that's easily packed away. This mild dillemma with the furniture fuels my desire to rent a furnished place in Newtown or rent furniture. Yes, talk about total lifestyle inflation, but I'm doing it. The price a MERJ pays for convenience!

Oh! I applied for a credit card and thought I had a reason to hope because it wasn't an instant denial, then I remembered I froze my credit report, so that's probably the reason! Oh, well. 

I did get a small increase on Backup Credit Card. I need to stop using it and freeze it when I get back so that I can protect my credit score until I get an apartment. 

But it would be a lot easier to put all these new moving charges on a card and settle it later. My, what a pickle I've gotten myself into!

My latest widget is at least approved and out the door. Hopefully no one will notice I'm not online tomorrow. And then I think things pick up into medium gear starting Wed both with work and with The Move. I have 2 Widgets in the pipeline. I'm deciding to get more vague with some of my details. I was reading another blog who seemed unnecessarily vague and I think I prefer that. I used to be less specific with my details and I think that's better. 

None of the 2 lawyers I engaged with are really willing to review my documents so that sucks. But one is more responsive and who I used before. Makes me think maybe I should have just used the first Old Guy who couldn't remember his email address.
