There were six young men, plus a supervisor! I am very pleased with there work.
There is still work to be done obviously, especially on the insides of things.
They also found my vacuum!
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Because books.
Sophia, that's awesome. And that's what they're there for! No humiliation necessary.

Yay Sophia! So after they go, what still needs doing? Or are they going to finish things up?

I may steam clean the carpets I have to wipe down a few pieces of furniture (about 5) Then I probably should clean the bookshelves, but I think that can wait I have to set up my new bed Then, I need to start to go through the cupboards, drawers, etc as it is just a jumbled mess inside things as well as dealing with the staging area
It is all pretty doable, I think.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Dang, Sophia, this all seems very efficient!

This is the best money I have ever spent. However, I still feel super anxious- more anxious than I have been for the past few days. I think because there isn't the urgency any more. Also, I have been sitting in Dunkin for hours!

Sophia, I have been cheering you in my heart in the past few days, but mostly today. Such a triumph!
Cindy, thank you for the update on your son.
... and it's late and I'm a bit tired and can't remember right now if I wanted to say something directly to someone else as I've been mostly peeking here since Sunday (hiya grad school!), but all the love and power and naps and ~ma to you, people.

Punishingly Intricate
Have you been drinking coffee this whole time, Sophia? That can't help with the anxiety! For real, though, I hope you can appreciate how fucking amazing you are being!!!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Sophia, if there aren't practical things to do right now, can you do physical exercises to try to reduce the anxiety you're feeling? Like this guy here? [link]

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Popping in quickly to say how damned proud I am of Sophia. None of this was easy.
My house was rapidly approaching similar status. Sophia, you inspired me to get to work cleaning up the worst of it. There's still a lot to do, but it will get done.
Non sequitur: Hoping that most of you remember me mentioning EMTguy. We've been together almost 5 1/2 years now, but the big news is that he's now MedicGuy! He received his paramedic certification last month after a long year of classes and clinicals, while also working full-time. I'm super proud of him too.
