    Sorry to hear about your back yooperdave !! I saw a chiro for awhile that used "Activator Method", wonder if that could give you a bit of relief and loosen you up enough to the get manually adjusted? I wonder if a massage would loosen you up too?

    How did it turn out TrinitySouth99 , and what were you shoveling? Ashes or water or wet ashes?

    I stopped chiro several years ago too when he started doing more damage than it was worth. Started going to massage to get past that damage. Tried another chiro later and went to him twice. Not been to one since.

    Also it always bothered me that they want you coming back and back and back. No fix; just lighten the purse.

    Rolling up old wool rug. Stinny at one point said he could use it in his music studio but it wasn't shedding as bad then as it is now and doubt his bride wants it in the house now.

    The link I posted last night for $140? Today it went up to $150 :picard: I looked at some cool looking floral pattern rugs, they're pricey!

    Maybe you should try and stop carrying that purse, see if that helps?

    Chiropractors are not doctors. IMHO they are pretty much quacks.

    If you need certain types of immediate pain relief, they are fine. I used one one time on a pinched nerve in my neck and it was the best remedy.

    When they want to keep coming back, then that's an issue.

    First visit was to crack the neck and upper back.

    2nd visit, I told him no more cracking my neck as I paid dearly for the next few days with headaches and pain.....and tried the drop crack adjustment-where he presses down on you until the table gives way? After 3-4 of those, I told him thats enough of that! Severe pain immediately!

    The next visit (3rd) will be that activator spring loaded thing. We'll go from there.....

    Finished CSS this ^ ^ ^ 1st load tonight...boy is there a lot of punk...I've never seen a standing dead Oak this bad in only 4-5 years dead. The wood I have so far will only make shoulder season wood.
    Anybody seen this...or know why it happens sometimes...apparently?

    I don't think I ever posted my "new wood shed" pics from last summer...CL find. This ole guy was selling it because his renter skipped town owing him $5k or so...he was trying to recoup some of his losses by selling what precious little of value was left behind. It was about half the money of a new one...but I had to move it.
    I jacked it up and backed a 25' round bale trailer under it to haul home...about a 7 mile trip...boy did that get some looks!
    Sadly I didn't get pics of it going down the road, or being unloaded...which BTW, was much easier than loading...2 forklifts, up, drive out, down, done.
    It was 12' x 21', but I had to cut 5' off to make it fit in the spot I had for it.
    Anyways, in retrospect I think I should have just bought a new one, this was just too much work...I justified it because it was half price, AND it has a nice overhead door in one end...exactly what I was looking for...but it all worked out in the end...just too much time invested in the whole project. Works gooder though!

    That is a sweet shed, I can see why you went for it. I love metal sheds. And you had some empty blacktop to put it on, too.
