I'm doing my part to guarantee that we don't get any more snow this winter. I cleaned off my truck and rearranged things in my garage to finally, after 12 1/2 years, put my truck in there! That has to be better than having a snow blower or a generator, right?
Snow blower was useless for this stuff. Dang it's shovel time on 300' of driveway if I can clear the trees off first.
My back has been jacked up for a week now and it is difficult to walk and get around. Normally I would do all the snow removal on the property but my husband had the (dis) pleasure of doing it this time.
I did manage to get outside for a few minutes today and worked on a few bird feeders and walked the property and almost every native holly tree has sustained some damage. Fortunately, they are forgiving and we can use the dropped pieces for firewood but it pained me to see some of them literally snapped in half.
Back in my arm chair now watching the birds and heating my back (I alternate between heat and ice). I love the snow and cold and it sucks not being able to do much of anything.
You can cut hollies to the ground and they come back as shrubbery. I know from experience. I hope your back gets better real soon.
Unless it's been more than a week, a doc will just tell you to go home and rest it, might give you a script for pain meds.Husband wanted me to go to the ER a few days ago.
Thanks!Unless it's been more than a week, a doc will just tell you to go home and rest it, might give you a script for pain meds.
Feel better.
Yeah, I get it. Been there a few times.Thanks!
It has been more than a week now but I do have an appt with the chiropractor at noon. I just couldn't see going to the ER and having to sit in a cold room on an uncomfortable bed waiting for 4 hours or more to be seen. And probably several more hours for a possible xray/scan.
My lower back has locked up before but never for this duration. All the physical labor I did in the earlier years is catching up with me!
Thx for watching!Thank you for sharing that! That was fun!
