Totally agree there, Butch. I'm about 6'1" and its a killer on me...I try to move closer as much as possible, but you know how it is when you get into your tree groove. I agree about climbing, I always feel pretty good after a day of climbing. Tired, but good.

Well, I've done 2 days of physio and have been back to the doc's. They are pretty sure it was a facet strain (http://www.sportsinjuryclinic.net/cybertherapist/back/lowback/low_back_pain_facet_joints.htm) rather than a disc injury, which is good news! They said that I should be back to full...

I've been typing off the ground for a week now...I can sit on the chair for about 20 mins before its too uncomfortable.

Well, went to the doc yesterday. She told me that she was pleased with the progress and would like to integrate me gradually back into work. Catch is that I can't lift over 10 lbs, bend or twist or move quickly...and can't sit down for more than a half an hour. Which leaves me with only...

Who you calling a peasant!??! Just kidding, I just have to make sure no one I know sees me when I do it ;)

Interesting, Gary. I'm definitely going to get a back brace for the bucket work. Stretch routine would be good. I was considering taking a yoga or pilates course to strengthen my core muscles when I'm more mobile. It's still pretty sore and my mobility is pretty limited. I can sit without too...

That little lady might be liable to break a back!

:lol:

Haha...nope. Again, she is out right now so I'm real brave! All in good fun!

Haha! A back brace is probably one of the measures I'm going to have to take. Plus weekly massages, you think Lou will be OK with that?;)

I thought it was about time for a cold shower. Thanks, Cary! Don't tell my wife I said that, I only got away with it cuz she's napping :lol:

:lol: Wife liked it too...and Jay's comment! A mistress to lay on top of lol

Man, thats a great idea. Unfortunately our pool is being renovated and won't be ready for a year or so. Nearest one isn't too far away, however! Thanks :)

:lol: After we put the mattress down my 3 year old was a bouncin fool...the laughs help the healing to I think!

My father in law was helpful and pulled a mattress downstairs for me to lay on last night. I've been getting up and walking a little bit today. Its way better already. The anti-inflammatories and the rest has been great. Maybe tommorrow I'll venture out with the wife and kids and go for a walk!

Dang Willie, I hope I heal up as quick as you! My doc told me no chiro...wonder why? Thanks fer the advice and support folks! Brent if I could move I'd have ta whip ya for calling me old!

So, yesterday I was pruning a walnut and td'ng a siberian elm. All day in the bucket. Around 2:30 I was just taking the top outta the elm; cut, hold and swing boom to drop limb. I tweaked my back a little on the top and though little of it, muscle strain perhaps. Finished the day, but even my...
