Signed, Sealed and Delivered
It’s a done deal. The papers are signed. I am officially out of a job as of next Wednesday.
Right now I would describe myself as emotionless. I have conflicting feelings of frustration and relief. I want to be happy about going back to Georgia and yet I am a little sad to say goodbye to all that I have known for the last year and a half. I have reinvented myself up here in Michigan. Its hard to believe that the journey is coming to an end. An abrupt end.
In a fit of frustration I posted every piece of furniture that I own on Craigslist. I have rational reasons to sell my things. A) Um, hello… I’m unemployed. Money is good. B) Fewer things to move back across the country is also good. C) Most of this stuff has made the journey from my college apartment, home ownership, and 2 Michigan moves. And, most of it was hand-me-downs when I first got it. It has had a good life.
I have been screening phone calls and emails all day. I have already sold a few things, with pickups scheduled for tomorrow. This is me trying to take control of a situation that couldn’t be more OUT of my control.
In other (good, no GREAT) news:
I bank at Chase. (I love this bank by the way. I am bummed that Georgia doesn’t have them.) Anyways…. they have this program called Chase Picks Up the Tab. Basically, every month or so they randomly pick out a few debit card purchases from the millions of transactions and reimburse the lucky sole for their purchase. Well, I got a phone call today informing me that I was the chosen one! They told me that they would be crediting my account for the $53 that I had spent at Walmart a few weeks ago. YAY!!!
