And sometimes the universe cuts me a break. I bitch when it slaps me in the face and I will acknowledge when it does something nice too.

It would appear that my appeal to the place in OR did not fall of deaf ears. After getting the bad news of them wanting a full month's deposit, I wrote to them explaining the situation and that B was not going to be responsible for any of the financials for the new place. The management company reviewed everything I sent and at 11:32am I received an email letting me know they reduced the deposit back down to $300. SCORE! The amount of stress this takes off me is incredible. That's a $1200 difference. That's huge. So thank you universe. It is very appreciated.

I spent the first two hours of the day finishing up my class. Everyone was really understanding and we got through all the material without any problems. When class was over I started working on some curriculum updates I need to have done in the next couple of weeks. It's why I am up early today. The sooner I finish this, the better.

Around noon we headed out to visit our friend's son in the hospital. He was admitted a couple of days ago due to a flair up of a medical issue. He lives about 40 minutes from us and we figured we should visit. Smart move on our part. He is our director's son and this gave us an opportunity to tell them about the move.

That went better than we expected to be honest. While they're sad we are leaving the state, they approve of our destination and wish us the best. It helped that we did while they were already in an empathetic and sympathetic mood for their son, but I honestly believe they are happy for us. It throws some plans they had for us helping out with special shows out of synch but it's not the end of the world. This also made me happy yesterday.

When we got back I did some grocery shopping, more doc work, and tried to deal with the bike. It's the last thing I need to make sure is in order before we move. I talked to one dealer who was just a dick and offered me $700. Yeah, fuck you. Another dealer offered me $2300 which is much closer to what I want but still a slap in the face. I paid way more for it. I have gotten a good 7 years out of the bike but still. I want $3000. I may have found a buyer at $2500 which while not ideal is better. If I can't find anyone else in the next week or two, it's his.

Watched some TV, made enchiladas for dinner and headed to bed around 10.

B and I had a long talk about my behavior and for now things are better. Not perfect, but better. That's all I can ask for right now.

Now to move and start a new adventure!
