Just a short one while I wait for pain meds to kick in. (It always sounds so melodramatic, doesn't it) I was weaning myself off prednisone, but I hit that three mg wall again. After several nights of no sleeping and days of shuffling around on painful joints, I upped the pred again and started taking T3s (that's high doses of tylenol, caffeine, and codeine in one pill). Last night was the first good night I got in a week. I'm going to have to keep the higher dosage until after the move next week; I just can't afford not to be active.
We're getting another dumpster. I think it comes tomorrow and we keep it until Tuesday. I am near weepy with joy. I was planning on having to drive stuff to the dump in my car using many trips and wrangling with the dump guy about the charges for dropping off oh,2 broken mops, a broken metal rake, and a tarp full of metal pipes. And that's just the easy stuff. No this will be better and faster and when you factor in the cost of each trip, probably only a bit more expensive. I'm psyched!
We rented a storage unit for the stuff not going into the new apartment. It's 10 x 10 x 20, and I'm sure we'll fill it all and possibly spill over to another one. We brought 44 boxes over today along with doing the regular chores and errands. Dar's friend Janice will be coming over to help with more packing and hauling. I love you, Janice.
I think Chloe and Jane will be in their new home this weekend, too. I hope they'll be happy. If I have my wish, they'll end up being sometime barn cats and mostly people cats. I really do believe that's how it will turn out.
Next Tuesday Dar and I will be taking a day to shepherd![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sparky77's two cats down to the Canadian/Michigan border. Q's dad will cross the border and meet us . . . somewhere. (Still have to find a place.) We'll hand over Pico and Lexy and be back on our way for more packing and moving and cleaning and is there anyone who really enjoys moving? Really?
The actual move will be Saturday and Sunday. We've got two cars and we're renting a U-Haul cube truck; we're hoping that friends who have been offering to help will actually show up and we can get this thing done with a minimum of high drama. Or would that be high farce? Oh, and that includes moving the animals, too. This should be very, very interesting.
So if you don't hear from me for the next 10 days . . . that's why. Just please put on your wishing caps, light your candles, strangle a rubber chicken - whatever your particular ritual is - and work on it not being a raging downpour or a snowstorm for that weekend. We all thank you in advance.
