I’m not sure I would call the work backbreaking, but it does stretch some muscles that don’t often get stretched and is probably the hardest work you can do sitting down.<BR/><BR/>FM, it was only a couple of days that I worked, but that’s plenty more than I wanted to do during a vacation. Or any other time, for that matter.<BR/><BR/>After this, I expect that the next major project is going to be the roof... and I don’t mean just re-shingling.Larry Kollarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08317037795075278427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12954391.post-1158565975818819992006-09-18T03:52:00.000-04:002006-09-18T03:52:00.000-04:00Wow, and I thought I had it bad being laid up with...Wow, and I thought I had it bad being laid up with a cold and bemoaning yet more rain this weekend! We're considering putting in more hardwood flooring here as well, given the age of what we currently have... but I'm thinking more and more that we should just hire our contractor friend to do it for us... that sounds like back breaking work to me! And with my crappy hip injury, it does not sound like fun to me. <BR/><BR/>Good luck on getting it all finished!Iowa Victory Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07220818462081082930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12954391.post-1158496365127381122006-09-17T08:32:00.000-04:002006-09-17T08:32:00.000-04:00Hi FARfetched.
