whew

I have too much going on. I am signing the lease this week, putting stuff into boxes...going to Louisville in two weeks, and doing the actual move that week following.
I will have three weeks in my new place to settle in before taking off for Scotland. I have to register for fall semester at Drake the second week of July as well.
Rehearsals have started for Blythe Spirit and now I don't know that I can do much for the show when it opens. I will go to rehearsals on Monday to see what will be needed.
I have bitten off a great deal of life this summer. IT's a far cry from what I thought the summer would be. This is moving forward and having some fun. When my future roommate goes to Chile for six months in August: I will be living completely alone in a house for half a year. And only paying half the rent. It will be a heaven I have not ever had in my life before... the closest I have come is living in my own mobile home on my mom's property: not quite the same, but I did have the place to myself. However it was delapidated and I never knew if the roof was going to fall in and therefore I was afraid to buy a decent tv or even a radio, LOL...
This is a NICE house I'm moving into. Tiny but NICE. And there is a woodshop I can use...I would love to make some nice shelves for the tiny room I'll be in.
Maybe I can find some wood projects... get back into that sort of thing Maybe do some wood carving again.
The possibilities are endless...
My sister told me her alcoholic boyfriend is incommunicado...so she's not going to go see him like she thought she was, and probably not moving up there. He promises her the world until she actually goes UP there to see him and then he's a dick.
So...she's thinking we might want to try moving in together after all but I'm singing a six month lease this week. I told her to hang in there for six months, because after that it's a month to month lease. I'm pretty sure my future roomie only wants a roommate because he's going to Chile for six months and doesn't want that strain on his bank account while he's not working, hence the SIX MONTH lease (I hope he doesnt think I don't see that).
So...maybe my sister and I can find a really nice big place for cheap, a fixer-upper with a yard, like what I live in now MINUS the roommate that never gets off the couch> and whose dogs bark incessantly.
