I finally got the living room and dining room to an almost empty state.
The hardwood floor contractors are coming next Tuesday. I have plans at
the weekend and so have to get both rooms empty before the weekend
starts. My friend Liz is coming over to assist me in moving the
remaining furniture (the heavy stuff) to the garage.
Here's a couple of pictures... take a good look at the naff pink carpet, next week it'll be replaced with nice red oak.

The dining room, no booze on the bar in the corner

Living room - who stole all the books?
What I haven't mentioned is that the contents of both rooms are now
littered over the rest of the house. I have no free sideboards in the
kitchen and the kitchen table is full too. The family room is full of
dining room furniture, tables, chairs and pictures. No worries, I made
sure there was room for me to get to the computer, MCE and TV.

Looks like the day we moved in.
