I have been a little withdrawn and out of it since my speeding ticket. Somehow that ticket woke me up because I have been driving mindlessly before and after it; yesterday I almost rear-ended someone because my mind just was not in it.
There is so much happening in my life and I tried to partition my days, giving each day a theme so that way I can get some of it done, somewhat. Monday is work out day, Tuesday, Study day, and so forth. Saturday of cos, is Mall day.
First, my boss in Nashville wants us to get new office space. He is such a miser and feels $2500 for two offices is way too much. Hence, we now have to move, that becomes my problem and duty. The phone calls and the endless viewing is a hassle coupled with trying to beat the price and compare the amenities. It's a drag. I hate that.
My lease is up in June. I can either renew or find some other enchanting place to move to. Hence I am moving myself and my office. Does this seem a bit daunting to anyone what a coincidence this all is, it is to me. Well, pay attention cos this is where you all come in:
a) I can either stay in my apartment complex and move a few buildings away to a bigger apartment at a cost just $100 more, and in that I get a dining area, a den, computer desk, wonderful washer and dryer and a coat hanging closet. It's a bit more space, for the low low price of $100 more. But this is for another building in the same complex.
b) Or, I can move to another place that is closer downtown. Way more expensive, a bit of a pinch really in the budget. Garden tub, over head car park, closer to wherever my new office will be, because the office will be downtown more or less, and hopefully a better social life. But, I shall only see my family some weekends, as opposed to every other weekend which I do now.
Or I can just stay where I am and do nothing, which just may be it. Too much going on right now to add on the expense and bother of personally moving myself and my office.
Thirdly, my birthday in a few weeks. I want to write myself a story, a special episode of SKOL for my birthday. I had started it, hmmm....back in January, funny I haven't been able to write it or read through now that the days are getting closer. I am such a bore that I don't have anything special planned for myself that day. I don't have reservations anywhere, I haven't made plans to go see any shows, plays, trips anywhere or whatnots, something exciting that would elevate that day from any other day and every time I think about it, I just draw a blank. I really don't know what to do, what to make of the day, maybe I'll just live it like any other day, go to the mall or something. I don't know.
Then, My Real Estate class. isn't it wonderful how ever ready I am to register for a class, but I can't seem to make time out of my evening to study. Today was supposed to be study day but instead I watched American Idol, then, I looked for my Auto Tag receipt, and now I am online, going to bed in 15 minutes. It's sad. This goes to show you that my life isn't ready for going back to school just yet, not now.
Then, back to office melodrama. My boss asked us to let go of the temp. And guess who gets to do that, yes, yours truly. This is a working mother who has been out of a job for two months and they nominate me to be the one to tell her that, "hey, this temporary set-up is over and my boss feels that we don't really have a need for you right now." It was a sad parting. It got my spirits down all evening. Being a grown up is hard, so hard, I hste to live with this guilt that I let someone go.
Finally, I have all the things that come with a birthday. Tag renewals, renters insurance renewals, and personal renewals. It's amazing all the refurbishments one's life has to go through at a time like this.
