The Climb
Moving doesn't seem as daunting today. I have a good portion of my stuff over at the new place. On moving day (May 1st), I have two guys and their trucks helping me. Once the items are at the new place, I might have a small handful of people there to help maneuver them upstairs. We'll see. Hiring a moving company is tempting...but I just can't justify the expense. My bookcase cost $100 at Ikea. My dresser was $50 at a yard sale. My entertainment center is a hand-me-down from the 80's. My wicker chest (which might fit in my bug with the seats down) was a gift from the organization gods...I found it sitting next to the dumpster of my apartment. For the cost of a moving company, I could just go out and buy all new cheap furniture. Thinking about each item individually, the only item I'm really worried about transporting is the entertainment center. I can't imagine getting it up the stairs. It MIGHT fit in the elevator, but it will be a tight squeeze. Oh well. I'll cross that bridge (er rather, climb those stairs) when I come to it...and have ibuprofen on hand. ;)
