The nums for posterity

I had guessed that the move itself and all it entails was going to cost me about $20k. I was wrong. $31,762.
$9,910 to paint the new apartment
$3,564 carpet for the new apartment
$3,585 to paint this condo
$7,067 carpet for this condo
Note, the new apartment was 5 different colors of paint. And it's 726 sq feet. The condo is just under 1,300 sq. feet.
$3,864 to plan and coordinate and execute the entire move
$2,693 to move my stuff and take the rest to Goodwill
$31,762 - holy crapoly.
And we still have furniture to buy. We'd better make a flat out killing selling this place!!
And, just like that, my brother's inheritance - as a friend of mine in the south used to say - "like a pecka in winter"
