I am greatly lacking in motivation right now. Or overdone with frustration, one of the two, or quite possibly both.
Got a call from the painters today, they’re coming on Monday. Mind you, this was originally scheduled for the 16th, and I guess got moved up - except that this was the first I’d heard of it being changed.
Just seems like there are so many hurdles to get from point A to point B and I just want to fucking get to point B already. Except that point B is several years away. Which obviously means I need to find some closer points in between to work towards so I don’t lose my mind. At the moment, I guess that is getting things ready for the painters on Monday. Fortunately it shouldn’t take much of anything, as there really shouldn’t be much of anything left on/near the walls. Next step - wrangling an approval out of the ACC for the windows so I can actually schedule an installation. (I may just schedule the installation anyway and if they drag their feet I’ll reschedule.)
Estate stuff is not as critical at this point, cause we’ve missed the “try to get it all done before the end of the tax year” goal anyway, and it’s not like we’re broke because of what is still unsettled. Still on the radar, just not the “Oh fuck gotta get it done RIGHT NOW” it was before. The brain trust over at Computershare managed to do the distribution the day before another dividend posted…so now I have to find out if I have to fill out another set of papers to get *that* distributed… So freakin’ close.
Also need to start making inquiries next week as to how long it would take to have the DVD drive on this laptop pulled out and replaced. It’s not under warranty anymore, so it’s not like it would have to be shipped off to Toshiba. In theory, that should be a quick fix, shouldn’t it?
Guess there will just be a flurry of activity of fixing a bunch of little things I don’t give a damn about in order to ignore the fact that I can’t figure out how fix the things I do care about.
It’s probably a good thing I know that drinking myself into oblivion doesn’t fix things, make time travel possible or any number of other things. But damn, I can understand why people try it.
