Very Productive Day

[days_unfolding]

Overslept an hour, but I got some stuff done before the organizer got here. The organizer was serenely unphased by the state of the house. She decided to start on the TV room first, and I sorted through all the DVDs, books, and other stuff in the room for stuff that I want to keep. Meanwhile, she bagged up trash. Her assistant was working in the basement meanwhile. We finished the room and went upstairs to work on Mom's bedroom and made some progress there. It is going faster than I expected.

But it's generating a lot of garbage. We agreed that I would rent a dumpster for when I get back from my trip.

Then I talked to the grief counselor. She feels that I'm going through a normal grief process and am handling it well, and that I don't really need her help, but she's available if I need her. We left it at that.

I estimate that at the rate that we're going, it'll take us about eight weeks to go through the house. With my vacation time, that puts us in December, which is perfect.

Now I think that I deserve a nap :) Well, I tried to lie down, but I'm feeling too revved up to sleep.

I'm going to switch gears and get my clothes together for the trip and put away.

Paid a few bills and then started yawning. I hate it when that happens. Now I feel like I had a ton of bricks fell on me. I ordered a dumpster for delivery on the Friday after I get back.

I got the waistband for my valuables. My driver's license etc. will fit in there nicely, but my phone is a little big. I ordered an armband for my cell phone.

I got Delta's app installed on my phone (I'm taking Delta back and forth to Chicago) and fixed some login issues, only for it to say it can't process my request right now. I think that I'll print off a boarding pass as a backup. I ordered a plastic envelope in which to put my travel documents. I installed United's app (trip from San Francisco to Chicago) and that's working fine.

It's feeling like it should be later than it is. I think that I'll make it an early night.

Huh. I am not seeing the yoga pants. I ordered more yoga pants from Amazon and will disentangle them later. (Good thing that I'm panicking now and not the night before my trip!)
