For those who may be wondering, I have begun, but not finished, the Move.
The movers came today and took a fraction of my belongings to the new house. They also took a larger fraction of my pocketbook, but it was worth it to have someone else move the piano, dresser, couch, etc.
Because I'm in forgiving company (I am, right?) I will reveal that it took 8.5 hours to prepare the few items the movers did take. So, I have some work cut out for me in the next 10 days.
If you missed the photos of the (empty) house, they are on Flickr. Check back in a year or two for an updated, decorated view.

I hate moving. I hate everything about it. If I could just snap my fingers and everything was magically there I'd be thrilled.
