Cleaning & Packing Day 9

10 days until the move: The guy that was supposed to look at the house today actually showed up. Kevin took him on the quick tour of the place. Showed up all the high point. The guy wanted to place, and they sat in the drive way and filled out the lease. He moves in on the 10th, so we have until then to get all our stuff out. It gives us 3 days to move everything out from the point that we can start moving until we have to be out.

Three days isn't bad. After all we still have 10 days to pack and the house is mostly clean. We pretty much have the house packed up to the point that we don't have anything out we don't need. With the exception of the Kitchen and some DVDs. Tomorrow I'm going to pack up all the spare food in the cupboard and all the pots and pans. I've packed up a lot of the plates and stuff. Other then that I think we're waiting until the last few days for the rest. As I've said before I don't want to be packing and moving at the same time. I'd like to have this place packed up by Thursday so we can just start moving Friday.

Hopefully we can get the trucks to do the moving with. If I get my license back by then I may be able to borrow my dad's. He's a bit picky about it and won't let anybody be me drive it. Guess he figures people will wreck it.

I didn't really do anything today. I've had one of those terrible head splitting pains all day. I've taken at least 12 ibuprofen over the day. It's done nothing to dull the pain. Thinking of robbing Jen of one of her percocet. I've literally spent the day on the couch doing as little as I possibly could. Mike spent the day on the couch with me watching the cartoon DVD we bought him. It's a nice set with old cartoons. Popeye, Betty Boop, Might Mouse, Woody Woodpecker and Superman. I never realized until today how much Betty Boop's voice grated on me. It's like nails on a chalk board.

Jen is bed ridden for the second day in a row. If things follow the correct pattern she should be good tomorrow and Thursday, then be back to feeling like crap by Saturday. Hope one of these doctors will find something to help her. I hate seeing her sick like that.

An interesting side note. From what I gathered from the conversation between Kevin and the guy that is getting the house. He's moving up here from Florida because he works for Harley Davidson and they offered him a store. He's come up to manage it. Now Kevin sells office equipment like copiers and computers and things of that nature. They had a nice long conversation about what the Brighton Harley store needs to upgrade. It appear that this guy who's getting the house is the new manager of the Brighton store. Or at least, that's the way it appears to me. He liked the house because we are so close the Harley store.

And thank you Jess and Liz for the home made noodles. It'll give me something to feed Jen at 2am when there is nothing else in the house she wants or can eat. With any luck she'll be able to eat them.
