Ok gang, as of tonight EST I'll be in vacation mode until Sunday 6/24. I'll still have my phone with me to handle house buying/selling stuff but "fun" is offline.
In other news, we are under contract to buy a house to close 7/3, maybe 7/6. So, when not at work (when I can best check the site), sleeping, or eating, then I'll be packing because I have to vacate my current home by 7/9. Time will be extremely tight, but I'll still be here

Update time!
I'm back. And got a little burned .
The family is putting stuff away and overall resting from the time away. I have A LOT of catch-up work here and elsewhere, yet I desire to post something in ARP within the next two days.
On the home front, things are moving along. It seems the first week of July is going to be rather nuts on my end and packing and closing/opening accounts will happen in earnest. Unfortunately for us, it looks like we will have to move everything within 1 or 2 days.
Thank you for your patience gang!

If you can, hire movers. Yes, it is $$$ but not that much $$$ when you consider the pay-off is you not being sore, fatigued, and frustrated.
Let the movers do your heavy lifting. Save your energy on the unpacking and furniture arranging (which there will be plenty of).
This goes double if you have a second story or lots of stairs/steps to get to places...

Oh yeah! I'm too old to move furniture around, lol.
Currently, we have a 2-story with basement (all my stuff is in the basement ) and moving to a 2-story without a basement (which REALLY SUUUUX for me .. but the price was too good). Our hope was to have a few days where we could move stuff to cut back on the cost of movers (in time and stuff). I don't want some strangers shoving my drums around a moving trailer!
Technically, there are five days between the close of the house we are buying, then the close of the house we are selling. Two of those days are the weekend and that's when the movers are involved. The other working days I could have some boxes stuffed in the trunk and dropped off. Maybe that's when the PC gets moved ...
Just typing out loud here.

Totally understand and that's what I did. I moved my 'important' stuff. TVs (LEDs are light and easy to move nowadays), computers, stuff that I didn't feel comfortable on a moving truck. I loaded those into my truck and brought them over myself over a period of two days.
The movers moved the boxes (clothes, non-delicate kitchen stuff, books, etc). Things that were safe in boxes and moved in bulk without worry of any breakage. More so, they moved all of the furniture. Beds, tables, chairs, dressers, desks, etc. It was pretty organized and the movers liked that. What they didn't like was all of the stairs. I was going from a townhome to a house.
The townhome had about 20 steps to go down from my front door to the street, not to mention my townhome was a tri-level (more stairs). Then my new house is a two-story. Heh, professional movers were so worth it for me. It was a hot July day too, they guys worked hard but I have them cold water bottles and tipped both $100 each. They deserved it and I was happy for their service.
Hope everything goes smoothly. It will be a great feeling once you are moved in.

October Update:
10/16 through 10/18 I will be out of town on business. ALTHOUGH I will have my work PC and cell phone, I may not be able to put too much time to thinking about A'Mand on Dorvan. If I'm silent these days, then there you go.
BUT, if my co-travelers end up being BORING, then I may be able to cough out a response to Storm's conversation
Just a heads up.
