Movin' on up

To the east side.....technically, we are moving west, but why screw with the song lyrics? Well, I've officially accepted the job offer previously mentioned on these pages, and have given my current employer notice. They are a little freaked out, but not too much which leads me to believe that maybe this isn't a great of a surprise as I thought it might be. Either that, or they're just too tired and too full of the Christmas spirit to argue.

Anyway, we are full into packing, moving, listing the house for sale, fixing all the small, nagging problems with the house and so forth. It's been fun.....really.....no really....all right, it sucks. Got some boxes to start packing with, and about half the required projects for the house are finished. The rest should be done by the end of this week.

The Jeep is also for sale. I decided it was easier to transport a pocket full of cash than tow a 35 year old jeep for a thousand or so miles. Got a few people interested, so we'll see what happens. If nobody makes a decent offer, then the towing prep commences on 12/27. Absolutely will have to take this thing for a test tow prior to hitting the road. I think the front end is in pretty good shape, the rear axle scares me and I don't really have time to dig into it. I may try anyway, just to see what I can do, but time it short.

At least college football season is pretty much over other than the bowl games. Of course, the stupid Saints lost yesterday, but they still have a decent chance.

Well, that's enough for today unless something interesting happens today.

Later
