I actually split wood sitting in chair now. It takes all summer to do 6 face cords, a little at a time.
That's the key, a little at a time.
Marty's right, don't ever stop moving, or you will drop dead immediately. Good luck.

Growing old ain’t for sissy’s ( Art Linkletter said that)
Hammer Down Men.

Old age aint for young folks either.

Walk and hike alot.

GOLDEN YEARS(yea right)--the only golden I am going to see--is if I pee in my pants. And that is getting closer and closer every day.

Newt,
Face it ol boy, you and I got to work so hard because we were both born good lookin instead of rich!
And remember, old age is just a state of............ where was I going with that when my train of thought derailed????

Sometimes its not age, but mileage

Yup....don’t he-Man stuff around ....a guy younger than me ,tore his rotator cuff ,throwing an old tire into the bed of his pick up. So go slow..he was only 62

Took off yesterday.
Still hurt but better.
Put wood in the stoves on my knees. I have 3 wood stover to feed.
Now if I dont do something STUPID.

I always thought getting old would take longer. Getting old isn't for sissies!

I fought old age. And it won.

"Old age and treachery will always overcome youth and enthusiasm."

I always figure that getting out and trapping, no matter how much it hurts, is better than sitting around waiting for my Prostate to explode.

Bob Hope once said about old age:

"First you forget names."
"Then you forget faces."
"Next you forget to zip up."
"Last you forget to zip down."

Five star general Douglas MacArthur: Old soldiers never die. They just fade away.

Trappers too.

Did bunch of light work today. Only woked 8 hours
Back feels mich better.

Glad you’re feeling better. I’m only 45 but have broke my back twice. It hurts constantly. No fun at all! My main problem is my memory. For example I had a bad morning and just remembered I didn’t flip coyotes . 6 miles from there now on a tractor dang!!

My dad is 83, will be 84 next month. He’s always said know matter how old you get, never stop moving. He and my 75 year old mother get out and work in the yard every single day no matter what. Heck, Pops was on the roof last week blowing leaves off, lol. He’s been telling us that since we were kids to never stop moving and always have a plan and he’s right. If I stay inside all I want to do is sit in the recliner and sleep it seems like. Stay active...take a walk...lift weights...chase the wife around the house, lol.

What do they do?

I’m taking 12 a day and 6 Tylenol.

Helps reduce inflammation and fluids.
