After about of week of moving and with a ton of work above and beyond the call of duty from my son Shane, Lauren and I finally got completely and totally moved out of our apartment yesterday. After nearly five years back in Southern California, we’ve taken the first step towards the next big phase in our lives.
I’m still working at NBC for the next four weeks or so, I think. In the meantime, Lauren, Jack, Olivia, me and a cat or so are all crammed into a very small hotel room about 15 minutes up the freeway from our old place. And crammed isn’t an exaggeration because there’s also 20 or so boxes of our stuff.
One of the keys to staying sane in tight quarters is trying to get out of them as much as you need to. So this morning about 6:00am I headed out to Starbucks. I signed up for their Card Rewards thing so now I get 2 hours of free Wifi a day.
In addition to my other pursuits, one of the new habits I’ve cultivating is ‘let’s make some damn money’. So, away from the room crowded with stuff I own and people I love, I had a coffee and got the following done…cleared my email inbox, new post on BobCesca.com, a couple of ads from Craigslist selling stuff, suggested to a friend how they can make a little money and then got a latte to bring back to Lauren.
All before 8:15. So I’m happy with that!
I’ve dropped off the face of the planet the past six weeks or so and am slowly crawling back. Illness illness everywhere. It’s good to see you’re alive and kicking! I’ll check back with you soon.
Love ya!
