You'd make a great padder
I was a great padder when I wasn't running a Cimex.

The perfect combo is to sit awhile and not grab and go, but go when you want. Then, go awhile, and then go sit some more. No Grinding!

I miss cleaning but not setup and tear down. I just enjoy cleaning not screwing around with the hoses. Especially in cold or wet weather.
Exactly what I was doing last night. One of Vancouver's famous cold and rainy days. Cold rain coming at you sideways with the wind blowing the van doors shut. After doing 2 miserable residential jobs, I had a 2000 sqft commercial job. Soaked before starting. Only saving grace was, the rain stopped when I had to wrap it up. Then the wind just about blew me off the road coming home. I earned my beer.

Years ago when I "Blowed" out my achillis tendon and sat for 6 weeks it drove me mad. Had to drill a hole in the cast down by the heel because it itched so bad and stuck a coat hanger in there to scratch.

But anyway I had to basically crawl to get work done . Did the therapy for a very SHORT time and said fook that. Took at least 3 years before it really healed.

I remember running the coat hanger up my casts to scratch the itch. My mom freaked.

Never drilled the hole though, Jimmy is my idol!

Now just imagine doing your therapy may have been done in 6 mos 🤣

I was down 4 mos once. Was nearly cut in half by a sloping flat truss. Tore an intestine and fractured 3 vertebrae. 27 staples from waist to sternum.

only time I was skinny was coming out that hospital. Lost a lot of blood and couldn’t eat till I passed gas.
