The Artist got in touch with the trucking company yesterday. They’ve arranged for him to take a bus to Atlanta Thursday to start their orientation training. He’ll be down there for seven or eight weeks.
Holy crap. I knew he’d be going down there soon, yet I feel unprepared for it. I mean, I realize he’s a grown man and he’s perfectly capable of sorting himself out without my intervention—hell, he’s been taking care of his own business for years now. But all the way in another state?
I don’t know if I’m ready for this. I told him last night, “This is a big step for me.” He chuckled.

Got a few things done last week:
Closed on a refinance of the mortgage. As we were signing papers, the closing attorney said something about how low our interest is now. “Rates won’t be this low five years from now,” he commented. Alpha Geek and I said together, “I hope not!” Because if the economy is still bad enough to keep interest rates this low for that long, that’s going to be a great big bowl of suck.
The Artist has finished his training and now has his CDL. Now he’s ready to start the orientation with the trucking company that offered him a job.
I’ve taken (and passed) two more of the tests for bookkeeper certification. Just need two more and I’ll be done with testing. I’ll probably push to get ready to take it next month; I want to get done with this project.
All that around a full-time job. I’m tired.
