You can just buy new checks with your new name on them even though you haven't used up the old ones. It's allowed.
I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I don't know why, but it feels like cheating to not use them up.

I totally understand that. I went wild and ordered new checks that I didn't "need" when we bought this house and it took some doing to be okay with it.

I had half a box of checks with my old address on them, but I got new ones and shredded the others.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I don't think i've written a check in many years. Except the extremely scary giant checks for a down payment for a house.

Writing the check for my car was horrifying. It took me a while to remember how to fill it out for that large a number.

Seriously. I have never written a check as large as the check for the Corolla. That was unnerving. But it's nice to not have a car payment.

Oh, yes. I sometimes sit in the car and gloat.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Calli, thank you so very much for the wise advice. That is exactly what I should do.
I just worked 9am to 11pm two days in a row. Today I did have a two and a half hour break in the middle of the day, came home, took a nap.
