It's Becoming Real

2025 is turning out to be an interesting year for me so far.  Things with the sale of the house are going along nicely.  We should still be on track for having the closing on the 30th (I hope).  I'm becoming more and more ok with the thought of letting the house and everything in it go, which is what's telling me that this is the right call.  I just have to let other members of the family know that this is happening. I'm also making Sunday Assembly progress.  I'm (mostly) ready for this month's assembly.  We had to move it from last Sunday to this upcoming Sunday because of the bad weather we had.  It's given me a little more time to practice my vocal parts and do at least one read through of my "Trying My Best".  Next month, I'll be hosting and I'm making progress there too.  I've got the theme, Rich will be doing the talk, and I've picked out the reading.  I just need to find someone to do the reading and someone for "Trying My B...

In Progress: Daily and Monthly Challenges, Week 8

 Yes, I'm running a day later than usual.  I sat in front of the computer to type up my blog post and just... couldn't do it.  There are a lot of things on my mind regarding the state of the country and I just needed distraction rather than focus.  Today, while still worried, I feel better able to handle to frustrations and still be productive. My reading has been... I've been reading every day but I can't remember much of what I have read.  As per usual, I'm in the middle of about 5 books and I bounce between them.  My sleep-reading has continued the Guild Codex  series.  I finished Slaying Monsters for the Feeble (the 2nd book in the Demonized  sub-series) and started Druid Vices and a Vodka  last night.  These I don't count in my over all titles for reading because I'm asleep for a lot of it.  I finished The Radical King  and, once I've got the money to do so, am planning on buying a paperback copy of it that I can high...

Other Updates - Dad's House, Decluttering and Letters

 Today, I had the closing on Dad's house.  It was far quicker than I expected, and much easier.  It was also a bit bittersweet because all I can think of are the things I left behind.  I know that I don't want or need them, but there's that bit of regret that always seems to happen with things like this.  But at least this part has finished.  I just need to wait for another couple months to get the remainder of the money after debts are paid.  There shouldn't be a lot of them so I should still get a good amount.  That, combined with what I'm getting back from my taxes... I should have a bit of a hefty padding to keep us afloat if things go bad. I spent time this past week decluttering my closet.  I got rid of a lot of crap that was just taking up space, reorganized my clothes in the closet, and put several things in a bag for Goodwill.  I was pretty pleased with how it all came out, and I'm no longer afraid of opening my closet to get so...
