Was that from a kickback? I guess I got lucky it only ripped the pull T out of my hand. And that hurt like a biatch!
No, non chainsaw related

I would tell you the truth (I slipped and fell on the icy driveway helping my son move), but if I did a certain saw tinker would probably tell me I need to move…

This is the time of year where I get rid of trees that have sprung up in places I don't want them. An 8" Bradford pear has finally gotten in the way of a path my wife uses. 757 to the rescue, it, and some 3" suckers are now being consumed by the goats. Gives them some extra green leaves, and prevents hay feeding. Took all the traction my Ferguson had to drag that 12" pine out of the woods, downhill into the goat pasture was nothing. Uphill out of the front woods was tough. Thank God it was dry out. Once they have consumed the leave, needles and bark, I will cut up the thick ends for burning.

Took apart the stove pipes to the chimney to clean the chimney, but it is clean, so just emptied the little accumulation in the elbow. Pipe comes horizontal out of the stove, 90 degrees strait into the 8" to 6" chimney adapter. I expected a bunch of creosote, as I burned some less than dry wood last year. Nope. Nice and clean.

Daughter came for a visit with the dogs. Now mine are tired. Still too warm to hunt. Turned on the air conditioning today. WTH!
My friend out on the Buffalo River said it’s 84 there today

🤷🏻‍♂️

Ice is quite slippery. And tinkers like to work with tin where it is snow free. Lol. I had my fill of snow, you don't have to move. We're full down here anyway.

It’s just I have literally thousands of miles running on ice in studded shoes and riding bikes on ice with studded tires and lots of falls and crashes and I always got up and was able to keep going

Then I slip and fall while spreading traction sand so my son can get the uhaul truck up the driveway

That’s what hurt the worst

New people next door are moving in to my grandparents house today. I'm really enjoying watching and not helping.

That said, I'd rather help them move than go to this stupid wedding this evening. Just to paint a picture in your mind, imagine what it would be like if two 13 year olds that nobody even likes got married and had a wedding... that's pretty much the vibe of this whole thing.

Oh, and there is no open bar because they are cheap fųckers.
Any nice tools being moved in? Going to make friends at all?

Your story reminds me of this. Thankfully I didn’t land on anything important, just my head.

I love me some grilled lamb chops. In the oven with potatoes and lemon is pretty good too, but my favorite is on the spit.
Pork shank was going to be my guess. Your friends did you right Dan.
I have a hard time wrapping my head around two 13 year olds getting married.
Drive northeast about four hours. It'll be hilly. Teeth will be scarce. Bonus: the 13 year olds will likely be cousins, or closer. They will all be slackers, or calling each other slackers.

What took you? I teed that one up a while ago! Lol

Yup. Despite driving to work later that morning and then to the Dr and CT Scan the next day I missed almost a month of work and recovery took a real long time. Still can cause issues with impulse control or mental health is I don’t watch for the cues.

So when you make a new saw purchase, you can tell the wife to remember the impulse control problem. Just kidding. Brain injuries are no joke.

I rang my bell pretty good but nothing lasting

I actually fell again 2 weeks later on black ice while out of town and compounded the problem

We were in between my wife’s first knee replacement and her already scheduled second knee replacement and couldn’t both be out of commission so mine got put off for 4 months

I still did all the shopping and everything and even moved us 3 times because we were living out of suitcases at the time

It was a long few months
