Hi katladyd, just what kind of "floor stuff" did you have to move? I have a number of packing crates set up on their sides on the floor, some on top of others, with things in them. And stacking containers that hold things like socks. Did you have to move things like that?

Did you have to move stuff like books in bookcases? Things on top of tables? ..Things that aren't on the floor as such but might fall off or out when they have to more the tables and bookcases.

I have a coat-rack with several coats hanging from it. How about that, do you think?

I'm reluctant to call the office. First of all, this Cathy is brand-new, and I doubt she knows all the answers to things like that. And they are VERY busy this week with eleven move-outs in the next few days and who knows how many new occupants coming.

And I don't want someone from the staff coming over to see what I'm talking about and an excess cat possibly not hiding quickly enough!

Thanks very much! I'm working hard at getting stuff together and am hoping for the best with it all.

Pat
