Updates

I didn't play ball for Manley's team last Thursday, the game was postponed, so they didn't need me.  Ergo, I didn't get the bed moved out of the condo.  I need to find someone to take it this week, as Paul is moving in on the weekend.  Just is supposed to take it at her house, but has made no effort to come get it, and I can't transport it in my car.  I'm thinking I'll just haul it up to the storage room, and she can let me know when she wants it.

My ankle is a bit of a disaster.  I played in a couple bar league slo pitch games on Sunday, and over the course of two games managed to get hit in the lower leg by batted balls three times.  Twice on the low shin (in exactly the same spot), and once right on the inside of my ankle, directly on the joint.  It's colorful, and swollen, but isn't restricted in movement, just a little painful.  When the bruising goes away it should feel just fine.

Things to do this week include getting the bed out of the living room, moving my couch in to the bedroom, vacuuming Paul's room before he gets here, grocery and liquor shopping for Edson, taking Frank to the vet for his first shots, on more ball game tomorrow night, and pack my car to drive out to Edson.  I'd also really like to clean out my car, as it's currently a disaster, and I'm more than a little ashamed of the mess. Aaagh, I also have to go to registries and pay for two speeding tickets as well as re-register my car... not gonna be cheap.

The good news is that my boss agreed to let me leave at noon on Friday, so I'll have a bit of time to get stuff together before leaving town (my first game is at 8pm), but I still don't want to leave all my packing and organazing till the last minute.  I'm a chronic last minuter and don't want to be that way anymore.

My plan is as follows:

Tuesday:

Costco with Just and her toddler (groceries for Edson)

Car wash at lunch

Load camping basics into car when home from Costco

Wednesday:

Registries at lunch

Move bed upstairs to storage room after work

Softball game

Thursday:

Liquor Store (buy enough beer for weekend, as beer gardens are expensive)

Pack clothes for weekend, including bright and tight for 80's night and load into the car

Freeze jugs of water to keep in my food cooler

Friday:

Get gas

Load coolers and pack into car

Drive to Edson

Ball game

Look like a ton of fun?  I think so.  At some point I should also pick up a new litterbox for Frank the Tank. He's a bit enthusiastic when digging poop holes, so something with higher sides would be ideal.
