It's done; or really the 95% of it that matters is done.

J was such a huge help, you can't believe it, I can't believe it...

And right before the cold snap, where it might not go above freezing for the next 10 days or so. These were the worst of times, in past winters. Now, I left the tank with almost no oil and the thermostat set for 40 F (4 C), and I think it will run out on Sunday night. Let the bugger freeze.

I still have like 5 carloads of stuff to get out. And I should go tonight. Hell maybe I will. This last bit is going to be a huge pain in the ass. But now I've figured out that I had to move, and gotten moved, in less than a month. That counts for something.

And it's a huge improvement. When the -4 F (-20 C) and 50 MPH winds hit Sunday night, I'll be in a place with gas heat and a new roof. No more whining, I have officially rejoined the middle class.
