Closer to move
Got all the carpeting out and into my old bedroom. I also pulled all the tackboard and baseboards. Plus, I put the cut sheet rock in there.
All the damaged items are going into the second bedroom, and are organized in there nicely.
I have cleared out the main bedroom, and that is where I'll put all the nonessentials that I will be selling either in a garage sale or on craig's list.
I used an entire container of bleach on Sunday, and wiped down the walls in the laundry closet, then the bare concrete floors in both the dining room and the living room. I also wiped down 1/2 of the main bedroom.
I haven't heard whether the yokels will start today or this week even on the outside, but they are running out of time.
While I have talked with Paul Davis, I have a parent in Lawrence that I will show photos for some plumbing work on Wednesday. I will pay him to get the inlet water shutoff value replaced, and the back pressure regulator replaced, as well as the shut off above the hot water tank. I know at least some of the pipe will have to be replaced as there is a tiny crack in it.
Then, I can have the water turned back on. Then I can move back in. I haven't decided if I'm going to have the gas turned back on for the water heater though. Water and electricity will suffice.
If the work actually gets done, I may buy a new washing machine, but otherwise, I'll do it the old fashioned way.
Also, if the work isn't begun this week I'll hang up large blankets to help seal off the rooms containing the contanminated materials until the meeting on the 16th of May.
I have found a that Lawrence Freenet has a hotspot near the apartment, and is the cheapest internet available to me. For bills that I'm paying:
Internet - 30 min free or $25/month
Water - $50/month
Electric - $50/month, unless I use the A/C which I won't unless the work actually gets done.
Then, just transportation to and from work until they come get the car.
If work is done, I'll need about 10K to make it through the summer without Karate.
I have about 3K each month in expenses.
