An empty kitchen

Here's a picture of the rather dirty floor of my now almost completely empty kitchen floor. An empty kitchen in this house is a miracle in itself. We accomplished this today by hiring a 20 cubic yard debris box, having it dropped in front of the house, and working with a crew of four. To do the kitchen, last night I cleaned off the table top (a 45 minute project in itself, then I moved the 6' teak monstrosity out of kitchen into some vacant space in the former media room. Today, with the moving crew, we brought some rolling trash cans into the kitchen and I got up on a chair and threw out every box or bag of food that was opened. All the unopened food went to one of the crew or into the charity box.

I think I've got the moblogging thing down, since I actually SMSed this photo directly to the blog. I expect I'll refine the process over the next few days, and I may switch back and forth between phones to see which one takes better photos and which one makes it easier to post. But, now that I've sorted out the major technological hangup, I hope things will go more smoothly and posting will increase dramatically during the move.
