Thanks for the sympathy AND advice. I did think about the cleaning....and, would like to hire a cleaner to take down the dust. Friday night, I can walk- softly- on the floors. So, I may tackle that myself. THEN, Saturday, 8 am ( ) the movers will be there to move me back in. I wonder...could I come over and dust after they finish sanding on that first day?

Here is the plan: Friday and Saturday- move all the little crap.
Sunday- move cats, Jones and I to Lillycats
Monday- movers 8 am
Tuesday- floorers 8 am- Sand
Wednesday- Stain
Thurs/Friday- poly- two coats
Saturday- 8am- movers
Sunday- pass out from exhaustion, but, continue to unpack things.
