Warning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Warning never use United Van Lines if you have to move. I made the mistake of using them and there has been nothing but problems ever since. I have missing items and broken items. I was socked with charges I didn't authorize. Their people will not return phone calls. I have given them until Thursday to correct their mistakes or I'm turning them over to the State Attorney General for prosecution.

Yeah!!!!!!

I got the job I applied for! Yeah!

Now the only thing that I need to get fixed up is a problem with the movers. Hopefully that will all be resolved in the next couple of days.

I need to make one more trip to clean the apartment and turn in keys and I'll be all through with Illinois and only have to get things squared away in the house here in Indiana.

Oh Boy!

I got back to the apartment late this afternoon. I need to go through everything tonight and clean out a lot of stuff. I have to get boxes tomorrow and pack and on Friday the movers come. I still need to clean the place up although since I have to pay through October 25th I think I will just take my time. I'm going to go back to Indiana on Saturday and hopefully take the computer with me since it really looks like I may start work on Monday. I'll come back here on a weekend and finish up. I'll still have a couch here I can sleep on until I get Salvation Army out to pick it up. It is going to be too crazy to try and get everything done by this weekend.

Merlin is staying with his Grandmother. Mom decided that he would just be in my way and she wanted to take care of him. I think a certain cat has someone wrapped around his little paw. ;-)

Very Busy

I have a very good chance at a job at the Hospital where my mother works. I'll know for sure by Tuesday. The interviewer said that she couldn't think of any reason why they wouldn't hire me. I just hope that it comes through. Unemployment denied my benefits and I need the money coming in. What I have saved in my 401K won't last too long.

Remember how we all thought Mom should get a pet? Well we don't need to worry about that now. She has adopted Merlin. I'm back here in Chicagoland packing stuff up and Merlin is with his Grandmother at her insistence. Mom decided that he really shouldn't have to travel in the car back here if I was returning to Indiana on the weekend. In fact she doesn't think he should have to come back here at all since I will be packing and he would "just be in the way." Hmm think the fact that the little monkey goes down and sits by the door waiting for her to come home from work and then rubs against her might have something to do with it? ;-)
