Triage Blogging

Ok, so I have exactly 10 minutes to fill everyone in, so I'm gonna cut right to it.

Moving. Soon. Like, in a week soon. We are leaving Oct. 30th, and hope to be in Sacramento either that night or early the next day. We can't get the keys to our new place until the 31st, so it's very likely that we'll stay overnight somewhere (probably Redding, CA). Our new apartment is a big (1,000ish Sq. Feet) 2 bed/2 bath place in the Natomas area (north Sac.) Its a new development and looks pretty clean and safe. The houses that E was able to look at were too scuzzy to really consider, so we figured that a 6 month lease at this place, the "Miramonte", was a good place to at least get us started. They have 2 pools (perfect for the Sac summer), 2 gyms, 2 clubhouses, and guest suites, where we will be able to put up visitors for 50 bucks a night. (of course we plan on having an office/guest room as well). You can check out pictures at www.forrent.com, just search Sacramento and you'll find the Miramonte.

My Job connection in Sacramento has pretty much dried up. The new Sacramento Mac & Schmacks isn't opening until mid January at best, so I'm on my own for employment when I get there. I'll figure something out, always have.

Erin's job is rock solid though. When she gave notice at her current company, they offered a telecommute option to her, since they can't really afford to lose her. So temporarily, she's gonna work out of the new home for the same company. Basically, without her, the business would be in complete chaos, so they are being very generous with thier terms of her continued employment.

I have only 6 more days of work at my restaurant. I may never serve tables again. While it kinda bums me out (because serving is something I could do in my sleep) I'm excited to maybe learn a new trick or two. This week is all about absorbing as much of my job as I can, and leaving on a high note.

Halloween will be unpacking boxes and passing out Candy over a bottle of wine...I can't wait.
