Frugal and Energy Efficient Living

I did not mean to imply that's I'd haul 5 gallons of water at a time. My tool bucket which was and still is a 5 gallon bucket that weighs around 55 lbs ( I actually weighed it a few times) and I use to carry that thing up and downstairs all day long and up on to roofs and drag it with me when in a crawl space. Then it got to the point I could only do one or two such jobs and even then I'd sometimes have to ask the customer to carry the bucket for me as it took everything I had to get up the basement stairs myself.

It's not the weight itself that's an issue for me. It's that my legs don't hold up regardless if I'm carrying anything or not.
