What a week! This week I was on vacation, but I didn’t relax at all. I worked harder than on workdays. Since my mother and I finally emptied all the furniture from the apartment I grew up in and moved out of two years ago (I even moved again after it).

I took inspiration from work and tried to break the work into packages (like user stories) to be done one at a time. I think it really helped to remember what was done and what still needed to be done.

My phone says I averaged more than 10k steps per day this past week, and I also had a lot of back pain from all the bending.

But it’s such a relief that we finally managed to decide on all the things that were still in the apartment after I moved out and nobody lived there anymore. A lot of stuff that had accumulated over more than 20 years.

The next step is to get the furniture out of the apartment. Hopefully, there will be people interested in buying it so we don’t have to throw it away. And then the apartment has to be renovated with a new floor and so on.

But the big task (especially mentally) of sorting out is finally done! (At least as far as the old apartment is concerned, I still have to find places for all the things I took with me…)

Let’s hope that two weekend days will be enough to recover for my real work on Monday. 😄
