13, 11, 10...at least the hours are coming down. In three days, I've completed almost a full week's work. I still don't take lunch, or any breaks; I didn't even on that marathon day, Tuesday. I'm doing alright, though. I'm just happy that the work is on track. And I don't feel like I'm drowning anymore.

The work on the house is going slower than I had hoped. The target date for listing is July 15; and there's so much to do. I'm kind of worried that I won't be ready.
The places I looked at in the building that are also for sale were not very nice. They were very clean, and very neat, but old and not pleasingly decorated at all. Either most poeple have no ability for aesthetics, or they just don't care.
The timeframe worries me too. If we end up being on the market for 60 days, then end up with a sixty day closing, worst case scenario, that takes us to the middle of October. Not only does that put us way behind the plan of being out there before the school year starts, but it means an extra couple of months carrying the mortgage. That bites because it's, essentially, lost money. All I pay is interest right now. I've paid $6000 on the mortgage this year, and only $1000 of that is principle. Isn't that awful?
It's late and I have exhausted my current stock of energy, so I no longer care. It will work out some way.
