Really? Nobody is free to help me tomorrow?
I guess people are sick to death of moving me!
This is not an attractive building. But cheery flowers in the lobby feel welcoming!
One thing that's cool about apartments is when management allows tenants to have a giveaway spot. I've even left things here a few times when cat-sitting and they've been snapped up by the next day.
After all the crap I went through trying to rehome my big TV, guess what I see in the lobby last night? It's not as nice as mine but it's as big, and I'm sure it's as heavy! Still here this afternoon.
I feel for this person. They may have to haul it away.

On one hand, this is the view from my bedroom window.
On the other hand THIS is the view from my front steps.

There's no direct neighbor but there is some sort of deck to the side with a motion sensor light. Did I mention that I am right over the parking garage? Lol. It's loud but still less annoying than Stompy McStomperson. Actually the building seems pretty quiet.
Roomie has a spot in the garage. I'm stuck with street parking which means I've got to be on top of the street sweeping schedule. I may not want to be coming and going as much late at night either and no leaving stuff in my car! It's a tough neighborhood for parking!
I need a Gary Moore Fix!

The strong will survive. Some of us will fall. Some of us won't get out of here alive!"

Blargh! Traffic was terrible, really terrible on the way back to Vallejo! And I had to stop at Trader Joe's and Walgreens in Pinole on the way back. Stupid me, got food for myself and forgot to get food for my kitty!
At least the housemate and fiance let me have my parking spot. It makes it much easier to put things in my car. Even though I won't be able to go to storage until tomorrow I may preload the car tonight. It will hurt my gas mileage, but could be a time saver! As it is, between gas and toll I am spending about $20 a day!
They are both here so I'm just praying there's no trouble. I just want to get in and get things done! I really can't spend much time here tonight. First thing I'm going to do is try to send some emails to movers on craigslist. Then see what I can do in about 3-4 hours. Looks like I will just spend the day here tomorrow.
I just can't move that fast and I am out of boxes again! I'm done! Looks like I am on my own tomorrow and I will be spending much of my birthday packing as well.
This going back and forth and doing this alone is impossible. I may have to message my landlady and say I need more time, which means I won't get my money back. She made that clear. Also, wouldn't put it past them tossing my stuff or locking me out. Sure I can take them to court after but my stuff will be damaged or gone. I need this done!
Left messages and emailed about 20 movers. First one called me back tonight and estimate is $350-$400.
I'm sure euthanasia would be cheaper.
I have to go back to Oakland now! I hope my new housemate likes me as much as his cats do and that our kitties get along so I can stay. I'm planning on leaving a lot of stuff in boxes just in case, but I have a good feeling about it.
