As of writing this, I have less than a month before I stop working, and a little over a month before I move out. I plan to leave on either the 2nd or the 3rd of October, towing a Uhaul trailer down in my Chevy Blazer. Some things aren't going quite as well as I had hoped though...

Gas prices are going back up. The gas stations in my town are listing 3.95 a gallon right now, and I just don't see that going down enough to matter within a month.

My funds are not quite where I expected them to be. I have 4800$ right now. Another month of work puts me at 6000$, which is about right from my calculations that I made earlier in the summer, but bills and such were a bit more than I expected. I was hoping around 6500$ before the move, and I wanted to get 8000$, but never got a 2nd job. The Uhaul trailer is a 250$ rental, and I'll probably need about 400$ in gas to get down there, so 650$ of that is just moving expenses. I haven't received any call from Brenner Pottery, which I had applied to, either, so having a job when I get down there is looking a bit shaky.

Kilns. Building one is more expensive than I thought. A pallet of 450 kiln bricks is about 800$ before shipping. You need closer to probably 1500 to make a good sized kiln.... I think. I'm not quite sure, but 450 kiln bricks isn't very much.

So yeah, thats what I'm looking at right now. I hope this all works out, cause I would hate to just have to end up doing the same job, in a different location.
