May 23, 2005 - Cleaning Out

For the past week, since we moved my stuff out of my old apartment into the adobe rowhouse The Gryphon and I now share, I've been spending a lot of time at the old place, cleaning.

It's difficult to comprehend how long this can take until you're actually doing it: from baseboards to walls to windows, it's a taxing task. Here are a few photographs showing my progress.

This photo from earlier this year
shows the apartment at its fullest.

On moving day, everything that had to go
was stacked in the front room.

After we'd done the kitchen and bathroom,
the main living area and bedroom still needed a lot of work

I documented each of my wall collages before taking them down.

Everything done but the carpets (and the dog).

Moral:
Moving to a new place is a workout.
