PCS sticker from 4 assigments ago!
Many of our Stroller Warrior families are now at the tail-end of PCS season— filled with anticipation for the day they will receive crates packed with belongings finally arriving from previous duty stations. Some Stroller Warriors are reunited with their jogging stroller that was tagged and shipped with their household goods. Others watch as the movers carry a heavy treadmill from the moving truck and into a garage as they hope it is delivered undamaged or able to operate on a European adapter! Hopefully, the free weights or kettle bells did not smash the other items loaded into the crate, especially not the jogging stroller!
Kettle bells, free weights, jogging stroller, and the treadmill all have one tiny PCS item in common: these items were tagged with a numbered moving label!
Earlier this week I lead an introductory kettle bell session with Stroller Warriors Charleston. I grabbed the kettle bells from my car and placed them on the concrete when I noticed one kettle bell with a blue moving label still attached— a moving label from Germany…several assignments ago! This kettle bell has been lifted thousands of times by either me, a Stroller Warrior, or a military spouse friend, neither of these people having removed or mentioned the sticker still being stuck to the handle!
So, today before the post-run strength training session, I peeled the sticker off the kettle bell and placed it on my key fob (I didn’t want to litter). That little sticker brought back fond memories of Friday evening strength workouts on the Southside track at Ramstein, Friday morning strength workouts with Stroller Warriors Fort Belvoir— all the kids playing in the grass while the moms lunged and swung kettle bells, workouts in my garage with my Elsewhere friends, and now on to Stroller Warriors Charleston where my friends stick around to learn about kettle bells in the heat. These PCS stickers are a reminder of so many wonderful memories with Stroller Warriors and how incredibly grateful I am to belong to an extremely supportive military family!
