Ibuprofen to the rescue

I've had a few long and physically exhausting days. Some of you may recall I've been helping a friend pack for an out-of-state move. It's really quite remarkable how much stuff one can accumulate over the years. And much of it is heavy! And it's not done yet. The next couple of days are going to be challenging. The place needs to be emptied by Saturday, but it feels like we haven't made a dent.

I don't know what I'll do when it's my turn. It wasn't fun the last time I moved and that was just for a few blocks. Funnily enough, the movers were early and I actually saw them driving up the street on my way to buy more moving boxes. I was still packing while they were loading up the truck.

So, reader, I am asking for your stories. Do you usually stay put, or do you like to move every few years? Are you a homeowner or a renter? What are your reasons for your living arrangement?

As always, please keep it civil and relevant. I promise I will refrain from commenting on your experience, but I might be curious enough to ask questions to better understand your story.
