@becsbuddy I am moving rocks from the side of the driveway to a empty area between chain link fence and sidewalk. Dumping them into three different buckets and hauling on the sled my husband rigged up. Does this count? My arms are getting stronger and my hip joints are getting more flexible as all I can do is bend over to grab these rocks and clean them somewhat before dumping them into the bucket. I am moving about nine buckets early every morning. I figure in the last 3 weeks about 3 tons of bricks and rocks, at least, have been moved. We are expecting record temps the next few days, up to 107, so I may take a few days off. It is about 90 outside at 5:15pm now.

@gingerw Wow You are the ne Lady Hercules!

@gingerw
I definitely think it should count. You’ve done a lot of hard work at your new place which convinces me to never move.

@gingerw, You are amazing! I spent a great deal of one summer hauling 3 gallon buckets of free river rocks, washing them...which had all the neighbors laughing! and filling one sections of a flowerbed. One neighbor swore that that effort is what brought on my stroke in the fall. Doubt she was right but with the high heat forecast for you, heatstroke might occur...glad you'll be taking a break during the worst of it! With your energy, would you be interested in washing my outdoor windows during your break time?
