What's up today (bullchiting) thread.

Back is sprained. Didn't know that was a thing. More pills, on vacation for the rest of the week.

 

That sucks. (Insert pain in the back joke here).

 

Hey, now that you are laid up you can put together a whole package of info for Charity when she does the story of woodburning....now go get busy! LOL

 

Trust me, I've got a package for Charity!

 

Can you RICE your back?

The IC&E seem counterproductive to the R when it comes to one's back.

 

I can rest and ice, but that about it. Compression doesn't seem real feasible, and elevation is determined by where I am resting.

 

Jack hope you feel better my friend

 

Today has been kind of surreal picked up our son at the airport last night 2 hr ride home get here at 2 am then consume mass amounts of adult beverages
stay up till 5am sleep in till 10 this is not my MO

Time to drink some Beer and hang out here for awhile get my head right. or not

 

How old is the boy?

 

He is 23 and proudly serves his country in the US Army

 

Tell him thank you for his service! I am gratefull for people like him since without this country wouldnt be what it is.

 

Staying up late and sleeping in, or drinking a lot of barley pop? I think I know the answer.

 

The former not the latter

 

Thank you for the kind words

 

Couldn't have said it better! Thank him from SJ as well.

 

Had a rough end to the day at work so out back I sit, burnin stuff and throwin a few rounds down range.

 

I took it nice and slow, but I did finally get to prove my theory by popping the glass from one of our decrepit storm windows into one of the upstairs bathroom windows. As I feel better I may try to get a few downstairs ones done if I can find appropriately sized storms. I have until Tuesday.

 

I think your doctor probably told you to take it easy, right? And that is what you are doing, right? That is like Campinspecter trying to chisel out cement with his amputated finger all bandaged up. I won't repeat what he said as he hit the finger with a sledgehammer.

 

Yep, nice and slow. He also told me to try to be active for small spurts and to stretch a lot. Check.

 

There is a lot of sense in the stretching and moving. When my Grandfather had a fall and wrenched his back, he wouldn't sit still for very long. Just kept going up and down stairs to put wood in the furnace. I think he recovered quicker because he kept moving. As you know, if you sit too long, it really hurts to move.
