Hello Dolly
When it comes to moving things from Point A to Point B I have no problem offering my help.
Something BIG ?
No worries.
Something little ?
Ok
Lots and lots or not too much ?
Doesn’t matter.
Let’s get er done, baby !
Get. er. DONE.
My way of doing things has always been ‘just do it’.
We will use our arm power, our leg power, our WILL POWER.
I don’t care how heavy or oddball sized it is …
Let’s just pick the darn thing up and carry it out.
We can maneuver, shimmy, wiggle or waddle it but we are moving this son of a gun whether it wants to be moved or not.
Move it or lose it people.
Because when we move it. Move it. Move it …
Boom.
We are done.
YaY
Throughout these many moves, there has been a constant and continuous pesty little voice buzzing around my ears.
“Why don’t we use the dolly ?”
“It’ll be easier with a dolly “
It’s Husband
& his oh so precious dolly.
Dolly Dolly Dolly
Use the dolly.
I googled dolly this morning.
I wanted to make sure I was spelling her name right and you know what Google told me ?
dolly – a low truck or cart with small wheels for moving loads too heavy to be carried by hand
Thanks a lot, Google.
You’re proving his point.
My problem with dolly is simple.
By the time you move big object onto her small cart, equalize and balance it and s l o w l y crawl to your destination with it …
snore.
I could have had ten different items packed already.
We are moving man, so let’s moooooooove !
So anyways, this has been the battle over many, many years.
To dolly or not to dolly ?
Husband prefers.
I prefer not.
Then along comes yesterday.
We have a tv that has been sitting around collecting nothing but dust
& since we are into purging our stuff these days … Husband and I decided dinosaur tv must go.
But it’s BIG
& if memory serves me, that beast hurt my back and put me in my recliner for a few days the last time we met.
soooo.
I relented.
Come on in dolly, we will do it Husband’s way.
ummmm.
Yeah.
That was easy
& it seems I may have underestimated dolly all these years.
oops.
Oh Well.
Helloooooo dolly.
You’re looking swell, dolly
& btw …
Where have you been all my life ?
🙂
