    Joe, nice job on the bookshelves, especially using a hand saw. You were able to make some good progress on the To-Do list during Danni's absence (and she really likes the bookshelves!).
    Sorry to hear about hurting your back, that is surprisingly easy to do, especially as you get older. If you ice the pain area and allow your back to rest up immediately after the injury, it helps speed the healing. A TENS unit is also helpful. Keep up the fine work - Cheerio!

      @billharris6886 11 місяців тому

      @@ItsOhJoe It's a device that generates a mild pulsating electrical shock. It uses 2 electrode sticky pads you place on both sides of the pain area. The TENS device usually runs on a 9 volt transistor radio battery. When turned on, you can adjust the pulsating shock intensity, which runs about 20 minutes. The effect is similar to a massage; it reduces pain, relaxes the muscle, and speeds healing.
