Living in the Past

The longer I live the more I think I am living the same years over and over again. Right now, being so close to the holidays just past, I feel that emotion stronger than ever. Funny thing, you can’t go back in time. Maybe that is why I feel I am reliving the time. I do not know.

Not much going today. I’m up and getting ready, and will be leaving for work soon. A few errands to run and lots of work to do. I think the day will be head down and forgotten by the time I drive home. If lucky, something memorable good will occur. We will see.

Just checked my schedule. Had an appointment, that cancelled yesterday. One call late in the day that I wish would cancel. The call is like a mental health professional calling to discuss my work life and performance but not comfortably. Sounds fun, right? It’s not. And I pay for it.

I got out early like yesterday. Or kinda early. Again, with someone home I can just leave. Nice

First stop is the bank. I need cash. Why? Well, Emily looked at two houses yesterday and one is a full on yes in her mind. The other she would like to buy but it’s pricey. I am thinking we will be making an offer soon. So, I need cash. Down payment money. Hypothetically I have cash in my safe deposit. It’s hypothetical because keeping cash in a safe deposit is not exactly legal. So, I got cash out of the “bank”.

Next stop was another bank to deposit cash in my Dad’s account. Lots of cash going around. Nothing nefarious, I owe dad money.

Left dads bank and went to mine. Had to deposit some cash. Surprise. Dropped by bank managers office and asked how much cash I can put in to my account. After all, my last account was closed by the bank. No repeats, please. She told me my business checking can only have $5000 per month deposited. That is a problem. I have substantially more. Turns out, I can deposit to a personal savings account and it’s totally unlimited. Does any of this make sense? So I opened a personal savings account and now I will deposit cash willy nilly. Starting tomorrow. I got a house to buy.

Finally, I went to the office. No one had missed me. I like that. I had a nice work day. Nothing important happened. I spent plenty of time resetting my auto pays to my new checking account. Amazing how much time that sucks up.

I got accounting therapy call at 330 as scheduled. She always leaves me with work to do. Which I don’t like. We went through what I did not finish from the last call. My homework. Oh well. I am trying to get it done, for the sake of my practice. Though the process is kind of painful and unpleasant.

Finished up my work day doing same ol sh..stuff. Got loaded up. Got to the car and had to go back for the crap I forgot. Had to walk to building front door since all the doors are locked down after five. They do it to piss off tenants, I think.

On the road. Got home in about an hour since there was zero traffic. A great evening for a drive.

Got home. House smelled great. Turns out Emily has gone out of her way to make a great dinner. Thats nice of her. Chicken, her potato cheese mushroom thing (yummy) Brussels sprouts (not so sure) and brownies. Sound good? It was.

Now we here. Sated. Watching good tv. Emily is snoring. She is not watching anything. I think I will drag her off to bed very soon. She isn’t walking there
