    Finally got the okay from the doctor and physiotherapist to resume working my firewood. Running 2 months behind on splitting and stacking my load of Oak for the 16-17 season.
    Glad to be back @ it. Pictures upcoming in the next day or so. Note to self: watch where your walking next winter. Took 65 years to break the strongest bone in my body...............

    Good for you rotti. I even split for about an hour this morning. Still recovering here too but not from broken bones and I fell on the ice only once this past winter.

    Glad to hear you got the green light Mr. Rotti. Looking forward to your pics.
    And BTW, accidents happen, Mr. Murphy doesn't care who or where you are.
    Safe travels this winter coming

    Yeah, your generally right, but I figured that I shouldn't press my luck with this one as I really didn't want to end up using my goober hand for operational purposes for eternity.

    Just don't try to overdo it just to get caught up. A setback would be the last thing you need right now.

    Glad to hear that you've been cleared! I was recently cleared from having an appendectomy, I couldn't lift much for a month after the surgery. I'd like to cut more now but I may have to wait for a few weeks. Just when it's starting to get nice and hot! Be careful out there and take it easy at first!
