"One book is nothing. A box full is backbreaking.They are still made of wood!"
grinning, he started putting a few of his own in a box. with two college professors, there were quite a few.
"Packing the boxes, fine. lifting the boxes, not so much!"

"I know, I know." Amanda said "I'll be careful, I promise. Besides, packing books keeps me distracted from thinking about more stressful things."

Stan packed a few moments in silence.
"Sorry how things all lined up with the worst timing ever.. We're barely going to get all the boxes unloaded from the moving van before we need to go to the airport to pick up Christy and Tommy.."
