Needles and Pins On Edge

After watching like a hawk and checking every day, all the funds have been paid to the creditors and we are officially refinanced!  So excited about this - in eighteen months and two refis, we have lowered our monthly outflow substantially.  It's awesome!!  And every extra penny goes into savings which is even sweeter.  So glad it's done and we are now at an excellent, historically low rate with no pool loan and no equity line.  Just one mortgage!  Yeah us!

The time change passed uneventfully and I'm not sure why but it has seemed easier this year.  I woke up ready to go on Monday and that has continued - waking up isn't hard.  It's just the 'but I feel so tired' feeling that seems to never end.  Oh well.  And I marveled and LOVED that it was bright daylight at 6PM on Monday.  Why can't we just leave the time as is forever?  (+1 in the Pro column of moving to Arizona someday).

Huge progress made on various things at work this week - winding down on things that need doing before we leave for our trip.  The weekend will be busy and full of errands, etc. - and I will manage a little fun on Sunday.  You know where I'm going.  I'm sure you do.

It rained today and the entry to our office (at work) was littered with umbrellas.  We never complained 'cuz the rain is awesome!  It won't last long but we'll take what we can get.

We are going to Disneyland Paris the first full day we are in Paris - so Friday, March 20th!  Yeah - we are getting excited.  This time next week, we will be in the air from Atlanta to Paris!

That's it for now.  I come home later these days (probably the time change and also just pre-vacation nose to the grindstone) and get so sleepy by 8, I'm heading up to bed earlier and earlier.  :-)  Also the time change.

Our cleaning lady D. is here today - she wears earbuds and chats on the phone while she works.  She is the third cleaning 'person(s)'...
