RE: A Bunch Of Items I've Saved From The Curbs Over The Years BUT Kept For Myself

“To put this in perspective, I would actually be happy when I woke up in the middle of the night, would smile at how comfortable the memory foam was, and drift off again into heavenly sleep. “

haha this made me laugh! And I have to get me one of these ! I mean what’s worth more than a good nights sleep ?

Definitely a good thing to hold on to ! Also very impressive how you got it home ! These kind of mattresses are a nightmare to Carry as you can’t really get a good grip and as they are heavy as shit.

It’s interesting the items you kept, with just small problems and people toss it right away. There are actually quite a few items here that peaked my interest and that I would have kept as well. Like the back stretcher ! I have some problems with my back as well and I sometimes ask my wife to stand on my back and try to fix it but it’s kind of risky, and I might end up messing it up more than fixing it !

Glad you shared this post it was definitely an interesting read ! I will do a reblog a bit later when Europe’s more awake

I should add that the process of getting that mattress up no more than 6 stairs in an hour until I felt like I was going to faint included falling down the stairs on the mattress many times due to that wobble. It was literally impossible, but I was so determined to conquer the challenge that I lost all common sense. ...Literally an hour to make it up to the 6th step of about 50s steps. I eventually accepted that I was being an idiot and brought it back down, took my completely sweat drenched shirt off, and passed out like never before.

The back stretcher is nice because it takes pressure off the vertebrae by pulling gently on the spine with a curve. There are many types, but that type of exercise may help you. I bet you could design one.

There are more to show, but I have to save some ammo for the next post. Thanks the thought of the tipu. I never understood how that worked or how people could award that.

Haha I know exactly what you mean. I also sometimes get into this cave man mode and I loose all my rational thinking. I was building a camp fire out in the forest close to where I live and I had cut down this big pine tree and I made a log that could way too many asses on and tries to haul it to the camp fire place. I think not made it a few meters and then I was sitting on it for 20 minutes just trying to catch my breath. Then I started using the Egyptian rolling log technique and got it in place, but my body was worn out the next day so I should have just asked for help .

The tipu I haven’t gotten to work yet, this is the second time and seems it doesn’t work. I had some different people do it on my post and I don’t know if you have to be an actual cheater for tipu to use use it but I thought it was worth a shot.
