We finally had to bite the bullet and move out all furniture and fixtures to prepare for demolition. With the assistance of a SAM from Suddath, in a span of 4 hours our entire home was packed up and shipped away to storage for 6 weeks. I do not know how people move more than once or twice in their lifetimes. This was the most stressful thing I have gone through. The boxes and piles to move were never ending. The amount of "junk" we have collected in five years is ridiculous. My goal when we move back in is to remove half of every box load and place in a Garage Sale pile. After the Garage Sale attempt, the rest will be donated to charity. The clutter cannot continue when the new home is complete. I get stressed out just thinking about it.
