Officially Moved

As of 5 AM this morning I am officially moved out of my apartment and into my house. WOO HOO! I was supposed to be out of my apartment by Saturday, June 16th but I didn't make that deadline. I told my mom that I as long as I was out before the apartment complex office opened on Monday we were all good. How would they know if I left my keys on Saturday night or Monday morning? I had to work yesterday. I worked an earlier shift than I normally work, so I ran to the apartment after work to pick up my last load of stuff.

My mom has been coming over to the apartment the past few days to clean and pack my remaining stuff. I thought she was further along than she was with the process than she was. I was angry when I discovered how much was still left to be done. I spent a couple of hours cleaning, taking out trash, packing and loading up my car. All of these things I hadn't planned on doing when I got off work last night. When everything was said and done, I discovered I had 2 car loads of stuff to bring back to the house. After the first car load, I crashed for a couple of hours. I was so exhausted and knew I should get some rest before trying to head back to the apartment to get my last car load.

Luckily the few hours I spent cleaning and packing and whatnot earlier paid off because when I came back to get my second and final car load things went very quickly and smoothly. I threw the last of my trash out and dropped my apartment keys off in overnight drop box. I left them my forwarding address and phone numbers just in case they decided to actually refund my deposit.

I stopped on my way home at an Exxon to fill up my gas tank. Seems all this running around put me on empty. Of course the freaks come out at night at that hour. Some guy approached me at the pump asking for money. When I told him I had none, he then asked for a ride to the next exit. I explained that I lived down the street. Of course even if I had wanted to give him a lift I couldn't have anyway cause my car was full of stuff and I had no room for a passenger. Hell, the front seat was full with my vacuum and steam cleaners. I filled up my gas tank, drove home, left the car loaded in the garage and fell back into the bed.

Now comes the headache of unpacking. Oh joy!
