The Dean tells me that I have the option of withdrawing from my second summer class. BUT I would have to return all summer aid to the lender and pay out-of-pocket for the first class. Damn it. I figured that was the answer. After three weeks of unpaid time off work and facing a $500 hospital admission deductible, I cannot possibly do that. So it looks like I am facing six weeks of Administrative Law starting Monday. Better get off the drugs quickly and start reading!! I also need to get to Kinkos to cut my book (thanks to Dicta for the good advice many moons ago) so that I can handle the weightload of my laptop and the reading assignment in a small bag with my injured belly.
I think I’m going to drop down to two classes in the fall. I’m still not sure. I just don’t know that I can handle three, especially if we’re trying to sell the house and move and everything. Pumpkinhead will need me and I need to get home by his bedtime to see him. If I take three classes, I won’t end until 9 p.m. most nights which means getting home at 9:45.
I can’t count on Chapin to maintain a consistent visitation schedule so I need to be the reliable one.
Friday is July 4. Duh. I have an appointment now for Thursday morning with my surgeon to have the staples removed. Hopefully it will be a bit more healed by then. Right now the entrance points are red and tender.
I need to go see my neighbors. We replaced the fences right before i went into the hospital. I arrived home to a large bill from the neighbor who purchased all the lumber and now I have to go see my other neighbor to get them to pony up half of the funds due. Hopefully they will do it quickly and painlessly so I’m not on the hook for that sizeable bill.
Since I’m home this week, I think I need to go ahead and ask our real estate agent to come out and take pictures. The longer we wait to put the house on the market, the less likely it will sell. Hopefully my Dad can come by and help me move some crap out and into his poolroom.
