Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

We packed and sorted and packed and cleaned and packed all weekend and had the realtor here to look things over this afternoon. After listing the tasks we need to do and jointly deciding to remove all the books and bookshelves from the office wall (it's an odd room and we want to make it look as nice as possible), we decided to push back listing the house by two more weeks

This will allow us to get everything done and not kill ourselves in the process.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I discovered some money. I thought I had closed out some saving accounts and I HAD NOT, so yay! money to pay down the credit cards. not nearly all of it, but more than I thought I had this morning, so YAY! and I did my taxes and will get some back so that will also go to the cards.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Yay for found money, msbelle!

Packing is hard. Moving is hard. More time to do both is good!

Cannot even deal with the horrible news out of Cleveland. I'm seriously not looking at it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yay money!

Boo moving, but yay realistic timeframes!

It's a state holiday here (Patriots Day), but not for me. Boooo.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Ugh. One of my FiL's siblings has started some shit, saying that he has almost no clothes at the skilled nursing facility and that's completely irresponsible of his children to not meet his needs.

All she needed to do was actually ASK one of us what the deal is, instead of shitposting about it. My FiL will only wear khakis, and -- seriously -- he only owns 2 pairs. (He says he only needs 2 pairs because he can wear one while the other is in the wash.) We got him some sweatpants for PT, but he hates them and only wants to wear his khakis.

Nobody realized he only owns 2 pairs of khakis until now, since he had been living at home and (allegedly) doing his own laundry. (Because who counts their parents' articles of clothing when they visit their parents in the parent's own home?) So we've ordered more pants from L.L. Bean, but they're not here yet.

All of which would have been easy enough to find out by asking a couple of questions, instead of shitposting about it to the rest of the family. (I really want to ask this aunt if *her* kids know how many pairs of pants she owns, and if they don't, why she's so tolerant of her kids' "irresponsible" behavior.)

Oh man, Teppy. That sucks.

Mondays are stupid. I want to go back to bed.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

For the record, I have no idea how many pairs of pants my parents or grandparents have. That would be a weird thing to know about someone you weren't living with.

Yeah. I often help dress Dad when Mom's away and I have no idea of the exact contents of his wardrobe. Just that he's switched from jeans to sweatpants at home because they're easier for him to pull back up when he uses the restroom.

Our wings are not tired.

My dad had multiple sets of the exact color and style of pants. That was all he wore. I have no idea whether he had one pair, or 30. Also, the relatives suck and Tim and his sibs don't need that bullshit.

That is some devious passive-aggressive bullshit, Teppy.
