textualdevianceA nice nap and a bunch of Advil this afternoon went a long enough way toward killing the OMG DOOM that I was somewhat functional for the evening. Dearly hoping my functionality holds for the rest of the week, because I'm feeling very guilty for missing work. I'll probably try to put in some extra hours over the next two days to make up for it.
The house hacking is going swimmingly.
Over the weekend and earlier this week, M and co. did some of the initial wiring and such that the place needed, and planned for more. It also got a bit of plumbing work and a thorough HVAC service and the cable/internet install. It currently has no carpet and is on day one (of three) of the hardwood refinishing. I did a little bit of scrubbing in the kitchen, but it definitely will need a thorough professional cleaning (which is scheduled for next Friday.)
The next two days, we're basically locked out as the hardwood folks finish their thing. We'll be finishing up some of the hacking supplies shopping (paint, more wiring stuff, etc.) and possibly get some furniture shopping done, too.
Saturday will be chaos squared, as M's parents and one brother will be visiting for the day to see the new place, and M and co. will be doing more wiring, plus painting and theater hacking. I may do some of the painting myself, but I'm more likely to be staying here at the villa getting going on packing.
Next week is carpet installation, the security system install, a consult for a storage system for the theater and whatever else we absolutely need to get done before furniture arrives next weekend. Somewhere in there we'll probably also be getting some yard service.
If all goes according to plan, we and the furbabies should actually be sleeping there the night of the 11th. There will still be plenty more to do after that (including moving![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
havdrake in and cleaning up whatever junk is left at the apartment), but I will at least be living where I want to be in just a short time!
Now if only my dang health would cooperate! I have too much to do!
