Deeper than the Surface

We closed today. If you want to be official. As in - we signed all the documents. We're officially home-owners. The place is ours.

We just cannot have the keys until it is recorded with King County. So that means Monday between 3-5PM we'll be getting the keys. I plan on moving both Monday and Tuesday. So that the tiny stuff I can take away on Thurs/Fri, seeing as the last day of our lease is Friday.

All in all, it has actually been a very wonderful, productive, and nerve-relaxing day. Thanks to my parents, Jim, and my making the pre-move a little more organized.

I am anxious about closing.
I want it to happen today.
And if it doesn't, my moving plans are kind of whacked.
Feeling altogether moody, because I'm anxious.

I am also anxious of our packing. I suck at packing.
Jim sucks more than I do.
It LOOKS like 3 things in our house right now:

1- Furniture
2- Boxes
3- Excess piddly crap and garbage

And Mel wants me to go to her birthday party after I move. And frankly I just want to curl up into a ball already and hide.
:P
BUt then. We shall see if it even closes today. It doesn't help that none of this makes planning an easy situation. At all.
Did I mention this workday is going to drag???
Good news? I got my run in this morning at 5AM ish. I felt sluggish. My lack of a proper dinner affected my running immensely.
I had coffee with Mel who... eats very very little. I sort of followed her lead but felt the pain from not fueling myself this morning after a mile or so. Yeah. NO wonder she doesn't run. (She claims it makes your thighs bulky... well, mine were bulky before I ran and shrank when I began running so whatever...) :P

I am weird.
It was good to have a friend just be so energetic and positive around me. Especially when I'm anxious about this whole closing on the house thing. I am afraid Jim has been driving me nuts and that is why I ran away from home. I didn't want to be unnecessarily rude to him. Then this morning pre-work, I was still a bit harder on him than he deserves. But I just don't have the patience to listen to him try and talk through solutions. (You know like - "If it doesn't close today, I will move all our stuff on my own because you shouldn't use your knee" type business.) Thusly freaking me out more.

A little organization for my sanity. It is time.

The house will be cut up into 5 categories. 3 or 4 that will be dealt with before move-date if at all possible. Definitely 1-3 if I can help it!

1- Kitchen/Living room
2- Bathroom
3- Bedroom

4- The Room of Doom. The side room.
5- Patio area

( Moving Checklists. To make it feel more attainable. )

( Life improves. Moving stuff too! I'm excited for this next phase. )

So if you have any of the following and want to ditch it - I MAY be interested in low cost selling, lol!

-TV Stand
-Bookcases
-Dining set stuff.

If not, I'm having fun accenting my home. The search is going to be half the fun. Some people go to movies for entertainment. I window shop and deal rummage.
Home making is actually quite fun. Young Travis Heinz would agree with me. That's why I love that boy so much, haha.
yeay homes.
