Why I Love Moving Furniture

I hope you enjoy these. For anyone who doesnt know,this is a year long project for myself where I write a blog entry a day. The artwork is something I did last year. Before 1/3/23 I had never drawn one thing in my entire life and then one day I decided to teach myself to draw and drew like 350 pictures last year. It's not just for me but also for Swift Moves in hopes of getting our rankings up on search engines. Does it work? Who knows. If anyone enjoys the artwork I post and wants me to send them an original, let me know and I'll send you a framed copy.

The moving business is a fun and interesting business to be in. I'm not out in the field too much nowadays because I'm in the office most of the time, but I love moving furniture from one house or condo or storage or wherever to the next, it's probably the only thing in the world I can call myself an actual expert. There's a few different reasons. The next few days I will write about why I love the moving business so much.

The first reason is the actual physical work. It's like a workout everyday that I get paid for. And once you learn how to be an actual mover it's not that hard to do, it's almost automatic. The exception to the loving part is a third floor move with no elevator. I can do it but it still is not fun to actually do. Second floors are no problem. I can run up and down one flight (or the second floor) all day everyday but for whatever reason when that third floor gets in the mix it makes moving exponentially harder. Not that we can’t do the third floor, it's just a lot harder. And this is not just me, this is pretty much every mover ever. But other than that moving furniture up and down stairs out to the is a great work out. There's nothing like moving furniture for 7-8 straight hours then hopping in a pool or taking a long hot shower! I can feel it in my bones the night of but the next day I feel amazing. It does get pretty hot during these long Florida summers but the absolute rain is having to move stuff to or from a third floor apartment right after it rains-that's the worst. Floridians know that in the summer immediately after it rains it gets really hot. And even though it may seem like an oil saying it holds true that “it's not the heat it's the humidity”.  All the moisture that is being soaked up to the sky immediately after it rains sticks to you like (insert moving related simile here). Then it also somehow sucks all the energy out of you so you're not just hot you're also all of the sudden exhausted. But third floors and rainy summers are the only real hard parts. Other than that I always enjoyed moving. I looked forward to it and the exercise it brought to my body everyday. I do miss it sometimes. 

The Artwork-I'm not sure where this guy is from but I love him! He seems to be some type of dog that is in some type of army. He has what looks to be some type of old Russian soldier's visor cap with a cool looking insignia on the front. I wonder what happened to his left eye because it appears to be gone and covered with a patch.  Theres no mouth but he has a big charcoal nose. His uniform is what really brings the character out in this guy. From his epaulets to his boots to his jacket flaps to his belt his uniform is sharp and crisp and ready to lead a cavalry into battle. This one was fun to draw, I loved the colors. 

Contest-This is an ongoing contest. It's a weird thing. On 6/27/24 we started with $10 then everyday I'm adding $1. The first person to call in or comment or message gets the money. Here's the kicker. You can either call in right now and get $10 (or whatever it happens to be this day) or wait till the next day when the money goes up. I think I have like 175 days left so the pot can get up to almost $200. It's free money, it's not a scam,

it's in the marketing budget. No employees or employee families are eligible. I hope you win!  The total on 9/16/24 is $86. 

In about 9 days from now I will be starting a new workout routine to finish this year off. I'm really going to challenge myself and I am not even sure if I will be able to physically do it. I'm calling it the 100/100/100 challenge. As the days get closer I'm getting more excited but I'm also dreading it a little bit because it's going to be a challenge to  myself that I've never even come close to doing. I'm getting old though and need to start taking better care of my body.

Here are some key words I have been advised to say for the Google algorithm= amazing movers, storage near me, mover reviews
