packing and cleaning :/

Hi everyone. Well as the title says...today was a packing and cleaning day.  I had to take Gabriel in to the dentist for his last set of fillings(The school district hooked me up with a dentist who was willing to do Gabe's work and exam for free cause he needed it done for school and we don't have insurance), then went and got some food for lunch...today's menu was Sonic, since their kids meals were on special for $1.99(trying not to dirty up the kitchen  too much more since we have to start packing it up soon here), then came back home.  Greg got into our room and finished the main part, and says i get the closet since most of my stuff has taken it over :) lol huge walk in closet and I pretty much owned it this year lmfao.  I got into the kids' room and started organizing their toys. Got their stuff down to a small storage bin of toys and one big bin of tows for each kid that they still play with(one for little things and one for their bigger stuff). Will finish their room tomorrow since we dont have a lamp in there...never got around to buying one and the closet light isnt bright enough for cleaning.  Then we have the living room to clean, dining room and kitchen. should bring us right up on Friday afternoon and supposedly when ComED is going to be disconnecting our electricity cause of a back balance.  I never got statements mailed or from e mail for the past 2 months so they did one reinstatement on the payment plan but i missed this month cause i didnt get a bill so they wont help me with that again :(.  

I did get some good news today though.  I had gone to Jewel to get cat litter for our cat Vinny cause we ran out.  I had a bunch of change I needed to cash in so I used the TCF bank counter.  And I told them I used to have an account but that it was closed due to a negative balance and not making a deposit in awhile.  So they looked it up and they said if I come in on payday an open up a new account the balance on my previous account will be completely wiped out. No longer on my credit report or anything.  I was like sweet.  They apparently just changed over their checking account to completely free...no monthly fee, minimum balance, etc.  and they got rid of the stupid $28 per day overdraft fee after going negative too. now it is just per transaction($37).  25 bucks to open a new account and I get  the balance from my old one wiped out.  Im not gonna argue with that. One less debt I have to pay at tax time next year.  

My mom wants me to come see her friday before we head up to Wisconsin.  I told her if I have the time I will try to.  She is my mother and I am not going to let anyone tell me how often I can see her...they better have papers ready saying i can't see her or the nursing home staff needs to say something cause otherwise I will go visit her whenever I like.  My uncle may have financial POA but he has no right to tell me I cant go see my mother.  She hasn't been the best, and I haven't been the best daughter, but we both have been trying to make efforts so the kids can know their grandma.  
Sigh. 8pm...kids room halfway done. Tomorrow will be going through their clothes and getting rid of what doesnt fit anymore and a trip to goodwill maybe to drop off a bunch of toys n stuff they dont need.  I forsee a no sleep day tomorrow since friday is it.  There better be a coke tap nearby lol ima need it.
