With eyes completely open but nervous all the same
As we've started home hunting online, we've come to realize that we'd REALLY rather a nice little rental house or duplex or something. No more apartments if we can avoid it. We've found some really nice possibilities - much bigger than this place AND smoke free at scary nice prices!- but some seem a little too good to be true so my folks will take a peek for us. It's amazing how many places are specific about 2 cats or small dogs. Animals with enclosures generally don't count, but we're never sure where the bunnies fit in cause they do but they don't. Are 3 bunnies = 2 cats? The places that specify sometimes say negotiable though, so I'm sure if we talk to them it'll be ok. And of course if they ask what's in the aquarium/terrariums always say "harmless reptiles". You never know when people will kneejerk at "snakes." And even then, only if they ask.
The time-frame scares the hell out of me, but time-frames always do. There was a reason I was always the first one in class in school, first one waiting to get back on the Greyhound/plane/boat, etc and so on. I will quietly wait for hours to avoid being left behind. Hell, even timed quests in WoW spaz me out. They'll give you an hour to do something that takes 5 minutes and I'll still be all "OMG I'm being timed, hurry hurry hurry!!" D: There's some kind of primal fear of being stranded or something going on there, however irrational. Perhaps it's why I never take my watch off. (waterproof ftw!) And despite our bitching and moaning for so long that we want to get out of Phoenix, it feels *sudden*.
The people we'll miss sucks... which comprises mainly of Amarin, her Mom, and the vet/vet techs as well as LaCerta Laura whom we've met just recently. ;_;
But this move really is the best thing. There's a lot of love waiting for us up North, and a lot of signs. It finally feels right. We're excited, we really are! But it's hard to not get bogged down by all the scary and expensive details. I'll be packing most of the day tomorrow.
Note to Self: Zodiac Medusa art ideas.
I've not been thrilled with my art lately, I have the ideas but the coloring seems messy and unprofessional to me. Stressed and impatient. I need to remedy this if I ever expect to make any money.
Tat healed perfect though! Covering it up more/every night really helped. <3
I think I have a gall stone or something though. I've been having symptoms for ages that are sounding more and more like some kind of gall bladder problem. Ugh. I'll worry about that in Colorado.
