Thank you, beth. And Trudy, absolutely!
I've made cookies, so the baking mojo is definitely on it's way back.
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2013: That Was the Year That Was
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Thanksgivukkahmas, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Out you go, 2013!

Secret Santa gifts have been purchased! They will be relayed to their recipient Real Soon Now.
Now all I have to do is buy presents for everyone in my family.

Our wings are not tired.
Ready for 2013 to depart. The house we are renting was sold and we met with the new owner today. He really wants to rent it on a weekly seasonal basis. So he wants us out right quick. He is willing to pay for moving and stuff. Will pay for the billiards company to move the pool table, etc. This is just the last thing in the world we have the time or energy to manage right now.
Deciding if we should move back to the house we are preparing to sell, or rent someplace else. Too much. Not sure what the best plan is. Hate this. My brain is full.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Ugh Laura. Really, he wants you to move over the holidays, while you are still recuperating no less? Much coping~ma coing your way.

He is willing to throw resources at it, but it is a brain power issue. Much of the house content is not ours, but only we know what is ours and what isn't. And the whole decision making thing that I can't delegate. I have a number of basketball sons that are ready willing and able to pack and move and so forth so that isn't an issue. Just focus. Too much.

If there is anything I can do Laura. I am happy to look for a place from here and even make calls. It would do me some good to help someone.
If the house you are looking to sell is livable, that might be the path of least resistance and thought right now.

Do you have a lease? It's very dependent on local laws, but in most places he should have to honor it. And at any rate he has to give reasonable notice (though presumably his idea is payment in lieu.)

Because books.
Yeah, I would imagine 30 days' notice at least, if not 60.
I'm sorry you have to deal with this now, Laura, when you have so much on your plate already. Delegate where you can.
