General update

Hanneke has done the last few updates, so it's time for me to catch up. Lately I've been mostly focusing on setting up all the account-related transfers for the move and a few things at work. As Hanneke mentioned a few days ago I smashed my knee into a door handle (it's a semi-long story) a week or so ago and managed to bang it up a good bit. But I iced and wrapped and elevated and it's mostly fine now. I was in seeing the doctor about a temporary hearing problem so I had him look at the knee. He ordered two x-rays but felt confident they'd probably be negative. I suspect he's right.

Around the homesitting-home, things have been pretty pleasant. Hanneke has done a lot of the dog care lately, almost all of it, since I wasn't walking much the first few days after the knee-meets-door incident. The ferrets have had some fun here but we look forward to getting them their own room again.

Not much else to tell. We spent most of Friday night painting with our prior landlady at our old place. It was kind of fun. Maybe we'll paint the new place if the landlord allows it. Then again, it's going to be a long year of budget-watching. So maybe that's a bad idea.

No word yet on my classes schedule, I hope I ended up getting those I sought. There were more than a few that I would not be surprised (but would be disappointed) to have not won in the bidding process.

More updates to come probably, though we'll soon go radio-silent for the move.
