We did it!!!

Well, we did it! We are officially no longer living in Palmyra, Wisconsin. We finished moving all of our stuff out of there and then cleaned the place up, 1 last time. Although it feels a little weird to be out of there after living there for over a year, it feels good to be back in Waukesha county, again. And I have been waiting all year for the day that we finally leave Palmyra for good. And that day has finally arrived, today. I'm so happy!!! We are however staying over night at my parents house tonight. Boo is also just making himself at home in my bedroom, for tonight. At least the next time he goes for a car ride, he won't have to go as far, which means maybe he won't get sick in the car and puke tomorrow.

Hilights for September 2018

1. I got to run at this year's Dylan's run for autism and got 2nd place for women in my age category 2. We finally got to move out of Palmyra, even though it wasn't until the last day of September, but it still counts.

Well this is it

Well, this is it! Tonight is going to be the last night we'll be living in Palmyra. And even though we have 2 days left before we can move into our new place, tonight will be our last night out of here. I'm so excited! Tomorrow morning we'll have to load the cars up with some final things, and then we're out of here! And tomorrow night, we'll just be staying over night at my parents house. So, to celebrate our last night, I decided to go to Culver's for an early dinner. I had a Reuben sandwich, and today's flavor of the day: chocolate decadent. It was the best tasting chocolate ice cream I've ever had, there!

Only 3 days left to go

Well, only 3 days left to go before we get out of Palmyra, for good. So far, we've moved a large majority of our stuff out of our current apartment and into a storage unit in Waukesha. So now, we're just living like we're living in a hotel room. All I did yesterday was drop off some final stuff at our storage unit, and then spent the rest of the day out here. Today, I need to get gas for the car. Might also buy some chocolate candy and either some juice or orange pop, as a personal way of celebrating our move out of here. Yes!!!

I guess things have ways of working themselves out

You know, it's funny how things turn out. We got a thing in the mail telling us we needed to either be out of here by this Tuesday or pay rent for this month. So, we started packing our stuff up on Saturday. Here I thought we could stay over at parents house for a week, but my dad was being a real dick about it saying we could stay here for a week. So, luckily one of Jason's friends gave us 1000 in cash to pay our landlord, which we took care of, today. Now that our rent has been paid for this month, that gives us a little more time to pack the rest of our stuff up, and move more at our own pace. Aftterall, we can't move into the new place for another week from today. So far, all of our kitchen stuff is out of there for the most part. All cabinets and closets have been cleaned out except for the ones in the bedrooms.

Change of plans

Well, there's been a sudden change of plans in how we're going to be moving out of Palmyra. Originally. I thought we would be moving out of here on the first of October but we got something in the mail stating that either we pay rent for this place which we didn't, or we have to be out of here by September 25. That's 3 days away. To make matters worse, we're having trouble finding places to get boxes to pack up all our stuff for the big move. Or we were. I hate when we have to be moved out in such little time. I'd rather go at my own pace.

It's the final countdown!

We're leaving Palmyra. On October 1st. And we're moving to a much better place.  There's only 10 more days to go 'til we leave the town. Only 10 more days to go. It's the final countdown. But anyway, today when I looked at my work schedule for next week, it turns out I'm not even scheduled to work next week. I hope I'm not in any kind of trouble, or anything. But on the plus side with my not having to work next week, at least this gives me more time to pack all our things up and pepare to move out of Palmyra to the new place. I need all the time I can get, too. So realistically, I hopefully have 2 weeks off. A week to pack up all our things so we can move out of here, and a week to unpack all our things at the new place and get settled in.

Hump day and what to expect the next couple of weeks

So today after I was done meeting with DVR, I stopped by my work to give my boss a note asking to have the week of October 1st off. The way I see it, for this weekend and all of next week we're just going to be packing all of our stuff up into boxes. And on Friday of this week, it's the final countdown on how many days we have left before we're out of there. The way I see it, on the day of October 1st, we'll take the cat and all his things to our new place, first when we go pick up the new keys.  Then we'll put him and all his things in a room and get the room set up, so he'll be comfortable. Then while we have him shut in 1 room, we'll come back and get most of the little things over there, first, unload them. Then, on the next day, bring over the bigger things, put them away, and put everything else away. And then, we come back to the old place one last time to give it a final deep clean, and then we're out of there, and we return the keys.

2 weeks left

We're only going to be living in Palmyra for 2 more weeks because in 2 weeks from tomorrow, we'll be getting out of there. So until then, we're really only going to be living there for 2 more weeks. 2 weeks from today, it'll be our last day of living out there. Still have more stuff that needs to be moved and put in boxes. And by Friday this week, we'll only have 10 days to go, before leaving the town. And when we have 10 days left to go, it's the final countdown. TUESDAY-Today after I got off work, I went to the social security office to give them my pay stubs as well as let them know I'd be moving. I also stopped back at work to lwt them know I was going to need the first full week of October off to move all my stuff into our new apartment. All I have 2 do is write a note and hand it in requesting off for that week and I'm set. I also found out today at work they have Won Ton chicken soup! I love that stuff!

3 weeks left

Well, 3 more weeks left before we move out of our place in Palmyra. We talked about our moving date being when it was. The whole family is going to come together and move all our stuff out of the ols place into the new place. I figure Boo and all his things can just ride over there with me to the new place. I think once I'm settled in, I should get situated with seeing a therapist at Health and Human services for trauma from being bullied and what not. Some other things that happened this week include me finding out a former cross country coach I had actually wrote and published a book and book signing will happen the first of October, the day we move in. On Friday, we took our cat to the vet, because his fur got matted, again. The next time he has to go for a ride in the car, he'll be leaving Palmyra for good. Poor little guy really doesn't like riding in cars as it gets him real bent out of shape. Like, when he rides on cars now, it'll make him sick. When we got hi...

Dylan's run for autism next year

After doing Dylan's run for autism, this year, here's what I hope 2 do next year: I hope next year, I can get there earlier so, I can get situated, sooner. I hope to bring my time down from what it was, this year. I hope I can practice running more days a week, and practice running a 2 mile race even faster than 13 minutes. And I hope to eat a lot more healthier, prior to the big race. Maybe I should run more races both before and after because it might be the motivation I need to want to eat healthier so that I can run faster times. Lucky for me I might get that opportunity to practice later this fall over at Field Park, after we're done moving into our new apartment in Mukwonago

....4 weeks left

Well, another season of living in Palmyra, Wisconsin has gone by. And that'll be the last full season we'll be living out there. My work schedule totally fucked up my work schedule by making it out to look like I was going to get Labor day off, when really I didn't get to have Labor day off. And working on Labor day wouldn't be so bad if I was informed sooner that I even had the work that day. They need to do a better job of informing me, than that. At least I made up fir lost time, eventhough I was pretty pissed off the rest of the time I was at work. I mean, wtf? I at least I made it up to myself by taking myself out for lunch, and decided to go to Subway since I need to eat healthier. I also got a new movie for myself on DVD but I'm not going to watch it until maybe my birthday or at least when it gets closer to Christmas. Then I went home and took a nap. When I woke up, who should be sleeping next to me but Boo. Bless his little heart. The next day, I had to t...

Hilights of August this year

Highlights of August this year: 1. I got a job, even if it's just bagging at Pick N' Save in Mukwonago. 2. Jason and I went to Cool Waters for a little while. 3. Our search for apartments in Waukesha county is finally over as we finally found an apartment we liked in Mukwonago and already signed the lease 4. I entered 7 pictures in this year's Walworth county fair in photography and one of them placed 3rd overall. I have 2 say, the picture I took of the mushroom looked pretty majestic just from the angle I took at it.
