Small Steps in Moving

This morning I hurt my back when I was sorting through Fred’s shoes to decide which ones are going to Freecycle. I should have knelt down to get them out of the back of the closet but I didn’t so I have had the pulled-muscle pain most of the day. I took a planned nap this afternoon and that really helped. It should be all better tomorrow.

Anyway, I got two big bags of shoes and put them on Freecycle. I already have one request from a man who said he will pick them up tomorrow afternoon or evening. I had them sorted into two bags–spring and summer shoes and fall and winter shoes. There were a couple of pairs of great hiking boots in the latter bag that I would have appropriated with great joy if my feet were that big! One little step at a time and we will get all this sorting out done.

Fred left a message for Mike and Melanie on their machine so we can talk about moving dates and I called Bryce, the new landlord and we are having a meeting on Monday evening to sort out the details of the lease.

Small steps…

Until later….

It’ll all get done. 🙂

Hooray for small steps. I’m going to make a sign with your words to hand next to the other inspiring quotes I have hanging on my wall.

You take care, dear woman – take it easy, it will happen!

I have a feeling you are going to be very happy in the downstairs apt. I know the rent is a lot more but there are many advantages to this apt.

Small steps are how a lot of things get done…(thinking of my major cleanup and organization of the foods room.

That’s a lot of shoes and now I’m curious about how many pairs Fred has kept.

One of the positive things about moving is that you are forced to sort through and dispose of things that you don’t need. Just remember to take it easy and pace yourself…you guys took years to accumulate this stuff and it might take a little time to sort through and move it all. Good luck!

I hope your back is all-better today! hugs, Weesprite

I certainly don’t envy the moving. It is a lot of work and very tiring. Hope it goes smoothly for you.

Ice packs on the back will reduce the swelled muscles. Hope you are better soon!

Back pain, so not good! Take it easy! 🙂 Be well,

Yeah. A little bit every day should do it. Hope your back heals up quick.

I need lists. Otherwise I forget things. I need an other category? I suppose so when I get there I can say.. aw crud I forgot “x”? =0) I like the new background too. I just needed a change. A big one!
