Yesterday they finally delivered and installed the padding to go under our carpet. Now things are as good as new.

However, the manager came down when this was going on and saw our cats. Ooops, we forgot to tell them we had any. Now we have to pay a $600 pet deposit. $600! Sounds insane to me, my two little cats… couldn’t even possibly do $600 worth of damage.

With this finally put behind me, I’m now looking torwards a planned trip to Michigan. Most likely sometime in mid- to late-August. My Grandmother will be going up from Virginia and staying up there for a few months so I will coincide my trip to be in that time-frame. I also have to make sure my dad has ample time to prepair because it takes a long time to get vacation approved where he works, and the sooner he knows the better.

Ahh well, tonight it’s back to work. (I sure wish weekends were 3 days long). Another day, another dollar – and thats only after my recent raise.
