Days to move: 16

[flea]

Days to dissertation defense: 14.

Days to turning in of draft to committee: was supposed to be today; now talking end of the week.

Move tasks accomplished yesterday:
Examined closets in Dillo's and Casper's rooms and removed various Goodwill fodder and a few items To Be Dealt With.
Items To Be Dealt With: assorted posters (approx. 24) (anyone want a cool poster of a cave bear skeleton poised to attack? I think it would frighten the baby at this point); two old hard-sided suitcases, one of which cannot be opened and has not been opened since 2000.
Paid lovely lovely men $25 to remove defunct washer and dryer from the basement and take them away to be recycled.

Move tasks accomplished today:
None.

Accomplished today:
Fixed fuckup in Health care Reimbursement paperwork.
Mailed 5 Bookmooches.
Shopped for birthday presents for twin 5 year olds, Dillo, Casper.
Bought Snurri's book. (It was well-displayed, faced out, and only 3 copies left.)
Took survey on grass-fed beef and won $5 Whole Foods gift card.
Bought non-grass fed beef and chicken.
Started binding Dillo's quilt, with goal of having it done for his birthday (Friday). Is agonizingly slow. Will have to take it to book club.

HOORAY for almost being done! (And I didn't realize that the diss had finally been written.) Your long family nightmare is (almost) over.
