TODOs: Giving notices ...

Giving notices: Piano, School, Rent notice, Safe deposit locker
 
Most of these are straight forward but you realize how many ties you have once you start giving these notices! For some of these, like the piano lessons etc, you might have paid for the full session and you won't be there for scheduled classes. But, if done early enough, you can book few extra classes for all those you are going to miss and schools usually let you know when these extra classes become available. Again, goes back to the same theme of 'if done early enough'!

You need to have buffer before the move date for some of the things - for ex, we got our internet thru' cable. If we stop the cable few days earlier, we would loose the internet as well, which is essential until the last day. Also, our phone was linked to Internet as well(read Vonage). Fortunately, we were flying back on Sunday and comcast was open until 6pm on Saturday. Essentially, we lost all connections except the cell phones only for half-a-day. If you don't even have cell on the last day, you need to know folks in-advance so that there are no last minute glitches (like somebody dropping you off at the airport trying to reach you on the cell!)
