As I am completely uncreative, I am sharing a possible Olympic sport that I heard on a San Diego station this morning, on the Chainsaw and Shelly show.
-Olympic Fencing: People leave the stadium and hawk stolen official Olympic pens outside in the parking lot.
Cleaning condo was completed at midnight Tuesday/Wednesday. I was unable to finish it, just not enough time, and I apologized to the landlady. She proceeded to melt down over the fact that the oven wasn’t finished and only half the blinds were done and omg there’s a mark on the wall where the couch was, now the whole place needs to be repainted. /eyeroll If we’d had time to see the mark we could have just applied .34 cents worth of paint and tada!! But we didn’t see it until Tuesday because, hello, we were still MOVING!!
We had a 500 dollar deposit. We didn’t take pics when we moved in, we didn’t have time to take pics on the way out. We DID get smart and hire a carpet cleaner, and that made a WORLD of difference. But we did not have time or money to hire someone to clean the whole place on the way out. She can keep the 500 for emotional distress, I just want to hear her whinging anymore. Seriously, if she’d just hired someone yesterday it’d be done by now, but she’s still crying in texts to me how she can’t believe she can’t rent the place starting yesterday. I’m just ignoring her now. We were there 4 years, never was late even a day on rent. On her part, she was good about getting things fixed, eventually, though it often involved us finding someone who could do it for cheap for her, since she ‘doesn’t trust the big companies’. Well, she doesn’t live instate, but seriously, if this is your business you should have a clue about who to hire for things, you know? If she wants her place <she rents out several in different areas> to be pristine, she should have not rented it out.
Ok. Done with this rant. Hopefully done thinking about it at all. Got plenty more to think about, like where to put all our stuff now that we’ve moved. We do have room 
This is my favorite part of moving.
Well, my FAVORITE part is right after you’ve moved all the furniture in, but none of the ‘stuff’, so that it looks all nice and clean and roomy. Then you move all the way in and it looks just so much more cluttered, no matter what you do. <sigh> Oh well, still much happier now
OH, also the dryer came in, so we can do laundry now; the desks came in, so we can set them up in our computer cave; and the most important part…the plumber finally came by yesterday. I do not know what he did, I think he was on the ROOF :0 but, instead of tearing out the wall just to find out the problem, he was done in an hour or two, walls intact, and now our shower, toilet and sinks work without flooding the kitchen and bathroom, yayyy!!!
Apparantly it was roots wrapped around the pipes, or nudging them, or something. I am still amazed that he could figure that out and fix it without tearing things apart.
Oh, and grateful. Very grateful.
