Alright, I'm back -- finally...it was a really long drive. Now I'm trying to unpack my car and the dozen boxes I brought in it. On the plus side, I paid all of my bills today between now and May. It feels good to not have to worry about that anymore. Now the question is, do I get a little job for some extra -- or just relax a bit now that I'm finally somewhat self sufficient. Unless something horrible happens to the car (Heaven forbid) I shoudln't have to call my parent in a panic at all this year...and hopefully from now on. Drea however only saved a few hundred -- so next year should be an eye opener for her on how much things cost. (kind of like last year for me....) Now all I have left is to put my clothes away -- and clean up the petrified banana on my counter that I somehow neglected to throw away before I left...
