Stressed to the Max
Okay so even though I don't look like this anymore, heck, Lilith doesn't either for that matter...I am having a hard time enjoying my new healthy lifestyle. I am so busy!! The house is a done deal so I now have more time to pack. Ugh! Packing! We have been trying to decide on weather to buy another 4 wheel drive gas hog and keep the hello kitty mobile or just keep the hello kitty mobile and rent a uhaul 14 foot truck that gets 12 miles to the gallon (did you know it is over 3300 mile to anchorage from our now sold house in Colorado?). Will still talks about sending myself, Lilith and the cats via airplane but I have serious doubts about him driving that far alone! Although I am sure it would be much easier on Lilith and the cats if we were to take a short flight verses a 6-7 day road trip! I sold most of Lilith's out grown clothing and shoes today and am donating tons of my too big clothing. Will's mother keeps begging for everything from Wills too big clothing, my too big clothing, dishes, furniture, etc. Did I ever mention that the trailer we paid the $5000 down payment to keep her from being homeless, has boxes and junk piled from floor to celling in every room already? Lilith is not allowed over there as it is so dangerous. We read some apartment reviews in Anchorage that mentioned murders, domestic violence, car theft, and lack of maintenance. (stay away from Weidner properties!!) We have found a house to rent, see next post, although it is much more than we originally wanted to spend. We were hoping to have one of our incomes free to buy new furniture and pay some back bills and save. I am not sure how much Will will be making yet but if my wages stay the same, we could easily do it on my income alone. It is completely furnished but no utilities are included, sigh.... most of the apartments we were looking at..till we found that apartment review site..included all or most of the utilities and were $1200 or less a month. I am working too much and sleeping too little. We have sold most of the outgrown baby toys also. I have to sort through everything, including boxes in the garage that we haven't even opened since we moved in and toss a lot and sell some of it on Sunday! We are planing a huge moving sale Sunday..more stress! I hope everything goes well. I will post more when I can..Will has lost another 5 pounds. I think I have lost 2, don't you just hate the male metabolism?
