    Everyone Please Say awwwwwwwwwwwww!

    I built my new shop last year about 50 yards from the house! 24' X 32' X 10' which I thought was bigger than I would ever need - yeah right!!!. To afford it, I did all the finish myself thus the entire summer was shot.
    Now for the awwwwwwwwww, During the build, I only had one accident. Fell of a 12' ladder while pushing new flooring into the rafters for the attic floor. Ladder fell from misplacement and mainly from an over abundance of stupidity!!!!
    Well, about 5 months later, a pain in the right hip sent me to the family saw bones. :violin: Several xrays and a complete MRI fater, I was informed that there was damage in the right hip!! A trip to a specialist said not to worry about the right hip because if we act fast, we may save the left hip which hasn't even started hurting yet!!!
    New specialist on Monday and schedule a little down time 12 - 16 weeks, a total hip replacement (right side) and a core (whatever that is) on the left side. New Garage, 15K. New hip 150K. Lesson in stubidity - Priceless!!!!!!!!
    Cheers!!

    Damn Bill, that does hurt ! Whew !! Let that be a lesson to everyone, I just got done refinishing my Townhouse flatroof, took two days in smoltering sunny ole Florida. On a winter day I probably could have had it done in one day but it was sooooo damn hot I had to work 10 minutes break for 15 just to stay alive, and I was extra careful around the ladder making sure I didn,t go near it if I felt dizzy.
