So the plan was for bf to move in at the end of August when his lease expires. Turns out... lease ends tomorrow. So we spent part of last night hauling stuff up 2 flights of stairs, then went straight to a Tenacious D show. More moving after work today. I was expecting more time, man.
It'll work out okay, and bf feels terrible about it. I was not mentally prepared for a roommate yet. Lol. Plus im cat sitting a friend's cat, prepping to leave my current job.... it's just a lot.
This weekend we're celebrating R's birthday, just the two of us. We're doing a super insanely fast trip to Cleveland to go to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He has no clue where we're going, which is fun for me. I'm looking forward to getting away, even if it's 40 hours lol.
DS starts drivers ed next week and I can barely wrap my brain around him being this old.
Work has been ridiculously busy this week. Like, I was there almost 3 hours late Monday night and almost 2 hours late last night. I was in a total funk yesterday morning, but my partner is awesome and she helped me just be suggesting things we could do that could make my day better. I'm really lucky to have a partner like her.
Another random is that I finally decorated my office at work! I brought in photos and my degrees and license from my old job, plus two photos from home that I haven't had hanging up. It feels much more cozy and relaxing in there now.
This past weekend, I got a new pretty trash can for my kitchen and a file cabinet, then did some organizing. The following day, my mom came to visit and helped me with reorganizing my kitchen and dining book *and* my closet. I'm slowly but surely getting this place much more organized and it feels SO good.
I'm in a funk today and I think it's because I'm "homeless". I'm renovating my place and staying with my parents while I do it. I've also been on the road since last Thursday. The thought of going home but not to my own home has me feeling unsettled which has just put me in a crappy mood. I recognize this is a total first world problem and yet I still feel shitty.
I decided to give the guy I visited over the weekend more time. He's going to come visit me in a few weeks. I'll still be staying with my parents so he'll have to stay in a hotel. I kind of like this set up because it removes any pressure attached to any sort of "sleepover" since that won't even be possible. I'm excited about the visit.

doriswe, how fun! The market there is amazing and fun. There's also a street downtown that is pedestrian only that has a ton of bars. Michael Symon's Lola is there for reference point. Lilly Chocolate and Confections is also amazeballs and does chocolate and beer pairings.
