You and me both buddy! I'm tired of it already... and I have a LONG way to go! Nobody realizes how much "stuff" is in a space like this... until you pack it up and then start to unpack and put it back on the walls/shelves.

It's so disruptive!

Normally the last thing to pack is the stereo... and the first thing to set up is the stereo... I even brought the entire shindig over in the pickup for that reason. Sadly though -- since I wasn't here to place the TV etc -- they arbitrarily decided to just coil up the cable behind the new sheetrock. Now I have to make an appointment for the idiots to come find it and bring it thru the wall. That happened yesterday. Then - since the TV box (DirecTV) was NOT activated when it was installed - that was an hour on hold and repeating why I was calling to get it working. UGH. Maybe tomorrow - weeks after the move - I'll finally have music to work by. Of course - in the meantime - I wasn't able to set up that 15' long multi piece wall unit - because the "cable is in the wall there somewhere".

Funny - the wall unit was one of the very first pieces of furniture Gwen and I bought (REAL furniture)... and that dates back to about 1976. I remember that it was about $5K - it's Rosewood... and contemporary and would still look great in a house to this day. That poor SOB has been moved so many times it's ridiculous.
