It just occurred to me that I should have been counting all this lugging, cleaning, hauling, and boxing for moving as exercise. It IS physical activity after all and isn’t that technically the point of what I’m tracking? So what if it isn’t formal “exercises” of some fixed timed amount. *sigh* Oh well, my body knows I did it. Hells yes it knows.

Meds Taken
- so I missed my morning meds because sleeping in happened and I rushed my butt out the door to get packing done
- 75mg Topamax @ 7pm
Meals
- 3 Cups of Coffee (only 1 this morning, the ultra suck of sucking and didn’t get any more coffee until I got back to my parents’ house)
- 12oz. can of A&W Root Beer (my brother is kind)
- 3 smoked mozz. sticks wrapped in hard salami
Notes
- 3 days left to move
- My brother came to help move beds and dressers
- Tuxedo Cat’s father helped my brother haul out the uber dead couch to the dumpster – I’m telling you this man always has my back when he’s able, this was last minute type of deal and helped my brother bring the stuff into the house later, really glad he showed up at the end of the day to visit and was willing to lend a hand
- My mom came today and took total command of Scholar Owl’s room (with him in tow) and the two of them got it all packed today. She did a fine damn job in getting cleaned up too. At this point he was fairly done with trying to sort it and my mom respected his feelings about what he wanted to keep and where he wanted it to go.
- I got to spend the day wrangling the other two with cleaning Little Bear’s room where those two like to play and trash together. Got it completely packed and vacuumed. I still say I wanted to rent a Rug Doctor but it I have to concede with my mother that we don’t have time for that. Not unless by some miracle we get the rest of it done tomorrow to leave me the last two days for cleaning.

Meals
- 4 Cups of Coffee
- 20oz. Bottle of Dr. Pepper
- 4 Slices of Pizza
Notes
- 2 days left to move
- need to call today about the boys’ meds (I did)
- seriously ought to consider canceling tomorrow’s therapy so I can focus on moving (I did)
- went to pick up the emergency refills only to find out that insurance wouldn’t cover Little Bear’s med because it was “too soon” which meant they DID mail it which meant…. *sigh* it was taken from the mailbox, it had to have come in the day I didn’t make it over there because I have been checking that box every day I’ve gone over there since the 18th and never saw the med come in so I had to pay for the 30 day supply out of pocket and will have to do so until March because our insurance sends us a 3 month supply each time. I hope whomever it was that stole it desperately needed the Lamictal rather than looking for a stimulant class of med. Must have sucked for them to find a 90 day supply of nothing but 1mg tablets of Lamictal for twice a day if they wanted to get high. First time this has happened and I’m so glad it’s the last time because I’m moving. Fuck this shit.
- Got a lot moved today and Dad checked out the size of my storage unit and said I should have plenty of space for the table no problem. All the boxes in living room, Scholar Owl’s room and in the hallway got hauled out today. Just the kitchen left to do, a few items on my old desk in the living room to pack, and the remaining items in my bedroom to sort and then to clean I hope.
- I just wish those fuckers would stop circling around in the parking lot like they have been. It’s getting old.

- 12oz can of Dr. Pepper
Notes
- 1 day left to move
- super late start this morning waiting for my brother and my father to be ready
- stuck with the nephew for first part of the packing and moving
- the plan was to have the rest of everything emptied out of the apartment today so we could clean tomorrow – that didn’t happen, we have at least two more hauls left to go
- I picked up pizza from Walmart today for lunch and it took 30 minutes just for these people to cook the 3 pizzas I ordered when it normally takes 10 minutes and the girl told me 15 minutes – they weren’t busy and they acted like everyone that needed them for their lunch order was a damn hassle
- downstairs neighbor came up the second it got dark (like seriously, no shit as soon as the sun finished setting – it was 4:30pm I checked my watch when she left) and bitched at me about the noise Little Bear was making, supposedly he was stomping his feet too much – but it was my brother going up and down the stairs carrying boxes to the truck, I swear she just wanted a reason to look into the apartment because I didn’t let her in, she just fucking walked in herself RIGHT INTO MY LIVING ROOM while we’re trying to haul boxes through there, like wtf people does anyone have any manners anymore?
- still need to cancel the phone and the lights in the apartment

Notes
- last day to move
- Last Day of NaNoWriMo
- Tuxedo Cat’s IEP meeting canceled
- completely moved all stuff out of apartment and it’s all cleaned up, that “landlady” waited until today to complain to me that if I left my beat up old couch and mattress there at their dumpster they would have to pay an extra fee and she could call the trash company with me if I would like, I told her no that was fine I would let my dad know (first off they could take it out of my deposit, second off she does owe me money for shutting off the circuit breaker and causing me to lose over $200 in meat from my freezer, so I think we’re even), Dad said to leave it because it’s technically part of the rental business because if we had left it in the apartment they still would have had to paid for it to be hauled of AND they would have had to lug it out of the building, seriously that couch wasn’t worth a shit and neither was the mattress

- canceled phone and lights
- did get a hold of landlord, didn’t seem to be in a hurry to get the keys back, wanted to check the apartment first, Dad insisted I tell him why I gave him my notice while I was talking to him on the phone, he seemed to sound like he didn’t know anything about it and had that semi-patronizing tone he always has until I told him how his business partner’s wife told me and my dad that she told us she had been in there and was the one that messed with the circuit breaker and was the reason my freezer got shut off, that’s when he sounded truly bummed but not really surprised – I don’t think this guy is going to fuck me over, but I am worried that she might try to
