Moving posts from a proprietary CMS to Blogger

My wife has been writing a blog about our family since 2008, but it's been over a year since she's made a new post. Since it was not being used much, I decided to save money on the server hosting the blog and move it over to Blogger. The old blog was running under our company's closed source CMS (PHP, MySQL) and hosted both posts and images (over 3600 of them).

I decided to upload all of them to Picasa and move the blog over to Blogger in a spare hour or two. The only reason I went with these is their simplicity and ease of use (from the user's perspective at least). It took somewhat more time than that and I've hit a few snags in the process, so I thought it was time for a new post while I was still hurting from the experience. ;)
