"Okay, we've gone ahead and finished our interior painting and now it's time to put the room back together. The first thing we want to look at is these drop cloths. Now, I always start with the one in the middle first. It's usually a bigger one and I want to go ahead and pull that off of the high stuff. So this is over my head, so I'm going to pull it gingerly. Sometimes when I'm working, I'll put a little something up there like a caulking gun or a coke can, and I don't want that to fall on my head. I don't feel any weight, so I'm going to yank that on down. Oop. There we go. A piece of sandpaper. See it's always something. So, I'm going to yank that on down and fold that on up. All right, now that I've gotten that out of the way, I'm going to go ahead and clean up the rest of these drop cloths. Then, I can go ahead and start moving this furniture. I've got all of these drop cloths put up. Boy, that was a lot of work. Now that I've got that done, I'm ready to move back this furniture. Now remember, it's just like when we moved it out from the wall. You want to kind of work with it and use, bend your knees whenever you're moving anything heavy and then walk it. Okay, so you're just going to move it a little bit at a time. You're going to toe that over a little bit this way. Then, you're going to do the other side the same way and pull that over. And, in this manner you start to walk it closer and closer to the wall, a little at a time. Walk it over, then walk it on back. Then, go ahead and bring the other side up to meet it. Then, you want to go ahead and repeat the process again and slowly walk the furniture on up to the wall. Now, this is how we walk the furniture back to the wall when we want to replace the furniture after we've done our interior paint job."
