Yesterday, I left two hours early from work so that I had enough time to clean and clear out the apt. I biked to my co-worker's to drop off my bike. I had to walk past McDonald's and needed food, so I got food. I felt horrible and I was hoping food would help and caffeine. I took 4 ibuprofen and two allergy pills and more caffeine and staying in the dark as much as possible and all this made me feel ok, but not super great, so I'm thinking it was a migraine headache as well as caffeine withdrawal since I had none until McDonald's.
I took another car load of stuff to storage, cleaned the bathroom and vacuumed and cleaned the floors. I took the cleaning stuff to storage and it was filled to the very edge with stuff. Gonna be soooo fun taking that out! I'm guessing with out the big stuff that there are 10 two car trips waiting for us. That is more than twice as many trips as last moving time. The horror! This move has made me realize I don't need to shop anymore. I just need to lose about 10 pounds to fit every piece of clothing I have. Good motivation! Also, the clothes I can fit I have enough of, so I think I won't shop unless it is something I don't have and need, like something nice for a special occasion. So, I can save money and space but also instead of spending that time shopping, I can spend it working out or cooking a light meal. So, moving=horrible and stressful, but also moving=eye opener and change for the good.
After officially becoming homeless (dropping off the keys), I went to my co-worker's apt, relaxed a bit. It has been good so far. Just gotta get through this weekend and then I'll have a home again.

Last Day at Drake Apts.
Yesterday, tried to clean and pack, but mostly Mack did that. I was really tired. I fell asleep really early.
Today is the last day at Drake Apts. I will have to take the last of the stuff to storage and get everything out and clean the rest of the floors. Still need to change my address on some things...though I have some time with that since we are doing the forwarding thing. I will be staying at a friends house for four nights. yay for being a bum!!!

Wow, I'm still alive!
Friday: Did laundry and cleaned my car. Picked up sandwiches and packed our lunches. I felt like a mom. Went to bed early.
Saturday: Got up early and got ready for rafting! Went to Noah's Bagels in my rafting gear, which is basically a swim suit and work out clothes over. I felt like a soccer mom again since I also got Mack food. Went to Lee's to meet up and he drove us all over to the river. Lee was scoping out the man meat, which were younger than all of us. Took some pictures of the camp area. Rafting was good. I fell in during not even a big rapid. Mack gave me shit. Mack and I did this trust game, but Mack fell in haha! I was not ready for him leaning back so soon. Water was cold! But it felt good since it was in the upper 90's. I got sunburned :( There was one rapid called Bouncing Rocks that Lee and I ended up in the "hot seat" meaning the seats that were the ones that people tend to bounce out of during this rapid. I bounced for sure and I dove inside the raft so not to fly out. Got in some water fights. Oh, the best part was there were these two men with water guns shooting at us and they had a cooler and a pirate flag! Real pirates!!! The rafting trip actually felt like the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. Lee bought a cd with our pictures that people took during our crazy rapids. Some were really good. We went to Gringo's to get some drinks. Got home around 7, ordered pizza, and packed some, but I was dead, so I lied down.
Sunday: Moving day! My parents came over with a crew member, my co-worker, and we moved our big items in their van. It took 4 or 5 trips to the storage to get all the big stuff out. We went to In and Out and it was oh so choice. Good day of moving. We also did two car loads twice after they all left. Then watched Killer Klowns from Outer Space and the first episode of Weeds. Good day and I can't believe I am still functioning.
Librarian that rocks!
