Helped a friend move today...

Hello,

Arghhh.....

I helped a long time friend of mine move into his new condo. About a week and a half ago I helped him move his stuff into his inlaws garage because he and his wife couldn't move into his new place until this weekend. (fortunately he had another friend help him with most of the first move).

This time I was over at 11am (est) and didn't get home till 8:30pm!!!!!

He offered to pay me but I said "It's a favor!" You know what that means, I'll never let him forget it for when I need something!

It wasn't that bad but I blew my knee again. I really need to get in better shape. The other week helping him move out of his old apartment I twisted my knee pretty bad. We were coming down the stairs with a desk or something and I missed the last step! I stumbled down to the ground level while carrying the darned thing. Needless to say it was in tough shape. No bruises but going up or down stairs was tough. I was able to help him get the stuff into his inlaws garage that night fortunately. It took about a week but the knee was back to normal.

Today I wrenced the same knee again!!!

Fortunately we were able to get about 3/4th of the stuff out. He called the same friend from the other time to finish moving the stuff into his condo. Man what a chore. But at least he's all setup. Now he just has to get everything organized!!!

I will like to check out his surround sound when he gets setup. He's got a 100watt Kenwood HTIB with dolby digital/dts. Not a bad rig.

Anyway, know that he and his wife are mostly situated I can heal up! I fortunately have Monday off (Columbus Day in US - I work for a bank as a temp so I get it off!!! ). I'll need to ice down the knee!

Alls well that ends well I guess. Now I've got a favor he owes in the future, nice trade off I think .

When I read the topic title I pictured you carrying his Star Wars DVDs while he was horsing a dresser down the stairs

Just kidding. That was awfully nice of you. It's a lot of work

Hello,

Unfortunately it was so late last night I couldn't stay to help him setup his surround sound!!! (the fun part!).

Yeah, I've known him since middle school and it wasn't a problem.

Besides, like I said, now he owes me a favor!
