Life's Cardinal Rules

The Cardinal Rule of Moving

Never pack a box heavier than you can lift because you may be the one lifting it!

*****

Now, if someone would tell the Mrs., of this rule maybe my back will stop hurting. Of course when moving a library one does have to expect a little heft to be involved - books are heavy ... but come on, a 100 lbs in a square/foot box - now damn it that's a bit excessive even for this old ball player.

She can only lift 10 lbs by the way. More boxes, but hey, no back pain, there.
