When moving to a new home, no one needs to burden themselves with any more stressful tasks than are absolutely necessary. Why not let someone else take care of the arduous task of moving furniture? Rather than breaking one’s back, scratching up that favorite antique armoire, and trying six different angles to get that desk through the doorway, why not find some fun things to do instead of moving furniture.
Get out on the trails
• Grab that mountain bike or favorite pair of comfortable hiking shoes, and head for the hills.
• Maybe there’s a nearby peak to climb. Get on top, look down on the busy world below, take a deep breath, and enjoy the fresh air, the peaceful vibe, and that magical connection to the natural beauty all around. Maybe this can be the new weekend getaway. Climb a new mountain every week and experience the world from different perspectives.
• Or, bust out the mountain bike. Wipe off the dust and bring her in to the shop for a little tune up. Gear up and get ready for some fun.
• Contact the local biking groups and find out where the best trails are. Maybe sign up to help out on a trail maintenance day.
• An inexperienced rider may be huffing and puffing along, but if he can make it a weekly routine, before he knows it, cruising effortlessly through some of the most beautiful scenery around will be child’s play.
Head to the local movie theatre
• Going to see that new blockbuster film on the big screen is a great way to unwind. With all of the access to media we have in our homes these days, it’s easy to forget the luxury of sitting in a comfortable theatre.
• The stadium seating, surround sound, and super-sized screen, can engulf the senses and carry one away from the stresses of everyday life.
• Turn off the cell phone, forget about deadlines, and enjoy the show.
Make some music
• How about picking up a musical instrument? Tune up that guitar, polish up that old saxophone, or pull up a seat to grandma’s old piano.
• Maybe it’s time to go take some lessons. It’s never too late to learn something new. These days anyone can get online and learn how to play any song they can think of. Or write a new tune.
• If playing an instrument just isn’t working out, not to worry. Just hook up the ipod, or pop in that classic CD and enjoy those old favorite melodies while cooking, walking the dog, or just relaxing in that soft comfy chair.
• Life always seems to go a little smoother when there’s music involved.

Have a night out on the town
• Calling up and reconnecting with old friends is a great way to find balance in life. Or go out and make some new friends.
• Go out on a date. Try out that new Indian restaurant that’s been getting rave reviews. Head over to that favorite salsa dance club. Or go down a few pints of that delicious microbrew with some friends, while watching the local favorite sports team battle for the championship.
