I've got to get my rounds in a row, so to speak. March 1st. I have cataract surgery on my right eye. Had the left done back in '12 and it put me out of the wood business for 3 months. Those 3 months will put me into June and my wife will be off for the summer so little or no wooding then. I'm gonna get the last 2 big ash trees on my place down and bucked and hopefully 6 or 8 small ones as well. Blast! Looks like September before I can get serious again.
Prayers for a smooth surgery and quick recovery, buddy! Be careful dropping those trees, keep us posted with pics
I can feel your pain. I have major surgery coming up at the end of the week and corporal tunnel in Feb. Will probably be out of commission till at least April or May. Fortunately 20017/18 season is already cut, split and stacked and my grandson is coming out Sat. to finish cutting my logs into rounds and split. Good luck
Ralphie Boy , best wishes for an easy recovery. I know a couple people who've had it done. Marshel54 , good luck on the major surgery and speedy recovery. I know a bunch of folks who've had Carpal Tunnel surgery done, my wife included. It helped some, some...not so much. One woman had both hands done and had to have both re-done. I probably should have had it done while I was still working, but the symptoms have subsided quite a bit since retiring.
Good luck with your surgeries Ralphie Boy and Marshel54 Geeze, I have one coming up next week too and then possibly another later. What is happening here? Ralphie, you wife should be able to handle that saw okay.
