#11: Moving

It’s Saturday, and this weekend I had promised a friend (former ex-colleague, now a friend, because once they leave the company that both of you work at, you become friends instead) to help move house.

There’s a classic meme that comes to mind every time someone mentions moving.

“If you’re over 35, hire movers. Your friends are too old. Ain’t nobody trying to slip a disc for pizza and a cold beer.”

The move went well. It was quick, efficient, and no one slipped a disc (as far as I’m aware). We even moved a washing machine by hand to the second floor.

I know that tomorrow won’t be as enjoyable, and I can already feel the pain, but I’m almost 40 now and didn’t slip a disc.

Helping makes you feel good, accomplished, and is the right thing to do.
