We Closed! OMG WTF Heat??

Let me tell you about today!  I went to work and waited to hear back from the lawyer.  I got my direct payment paperwork for the marina and the bank, got it all filled out and stuff.  Still nothing from the lawyer.  By noon I wasn't getting anything done so I bailed.

I went and got my new storage unit and it felt a bit warm, but I had been inside all day so it was fine.  I went and stalked the lawyer and had lunch.  He finally gets back at 3pm and we officially close!  Yay!!!  I shoot off a few texts, go and let myself into my new houseboat!

It is SO hot and muggy in there I wanted to die.  I was told it hit 91 in the area.  I opened up the doors and windows but there are no fans, and no screens so by opening said windows I take the chance of spider-bro's coming inside.  My fantastic realtors come by and bring me candy and champagne!  And both go in the fridge and they leave pretty quickly.  It is SO hot.  I end up only getting about half of the stuff I had brought in, sitting near the closet as it was the coolest part of the house and just dying.  I went and got water and diet coke for the fridge, drank all the water and pretty much wanted to die.

So I chose to sit in my car in horrendous traffic because it had AC, I regret nothing about this choice.  I am home now in my wonderfully cool apartment with AC and fans, I am pricing out window AC units since I don't have a lot of floor space to devote to a stand alone.

Movers for my mom's stuff come between 8 and 10am tomorrow, it shouldn't take TOO long since everything is packed.  I just need to sort out which boxes are which and put the ones they need to take closer to the door.  I'll sleep on the couch here tomorrow night and Friday morning we start moving into the boat!

I've been home over an hour and I finally feel almost human again.  F this heat!  Tomorrow is supposed to be just as bad or worse, but then we're back into the 70's again.  This bodes much better for my ability to function while moving.

Thank you everyone for the FB congratulations!  I just posted the fact that I had closed with this quick picture I took while dying in the floor:



So now I organize, pack, and then we're off!

It's been quite a year! or F*** 2020

 I realized the other day that it had been a while since I updated.  I am going to blame 2020 and Covid.   Brief summary of this past year: ...
