spent friday night fighting with huge stack of puzzle mats in my storage unit. finally got them squared away in the back of the unit, loaded up my 4-runner, and hauled it all up to my new apartment one damned box at a time. of course i had to move upstairs in the dead center of the complex, right?
saturday was spent packing up the house with cheryl and doug. after about 5 minutes in the upstairs storage room with them, i knew i was better off out of the way and doing my own thing, so i opted to clean out her closet. between all of her old fat clothes, what was left of my Dad's stuff, and the 90 bazillion bottles of health and beauty products in her bathroom, that took about 6 hours and 15 gigantic garbage bags. she never made it out of the upstairs storage room, so we're officially about 3 rooms behind schedule now. seriously, i know that i horde panties, but she has two full drawers of socks!!
sunday i loaded up most of the books, movies, magazines, and boxes up clothes that i had in my room, and took them to the apartment. its amazing what i accumulated in one year. made a run to a friend's to drop off some things that should go to a good home, then headed over to my storage unit to load up again. yeah, by the end of it i was feeling less than energetic and made every effort to grab the lightest boxes possible, a few miscellaneous tables, and my cool maroon/geometric rug which turned out to have molded. mental note to self: long-term storage mandates climate control from now on. anyway, unloaded all of that at the apartment, went back to the house, and loaded up the 4-runner again with a tub full of hang-up clothes and all the little shoeboxes of miscellaneous stuff that i could find.
and then i couldn't sleep. :( tossed and turned and could never get comfortable. finally ended up sleeping at the other end of the bed. last i checked the time it was after 3:30 am. same thing happened saturday night, too. i could crawl under my desk right now and pass out. can't seem to focus on anything, and the idea of reconciling bank statements today just seems to mentally taxing. seriously doubt that i'll do a storage unit run today, but i still have to go unload the 4-runner. please shoot me now?
