    I thought I heard Opie laughing when you were telling that demon story. I don't think your back is the real problem here. You just put in too much effort. Just wait until you really get old. My heating pad gets a lot of use. Congratulations, Paige!!! Take it easy. Thanks for the ride. Safe travels, and God bless.

    Mr. Kurt, you got all those high school students around you and you were even thinking about loading that music trailer, that my boy is on you. I have worked with the Boy Scouts for many years, they know if I am on the scene, they are going to be doing some loading, unloading and setting up their own camp! They will also be helping the younger boys too, that’s the rules(in my rule book). This old man has earned his place. They know it and I know it, take it or leave it. S@me thing when they need help moving a car that does not run(broke down or otherwise), trailer shows up, the boys get cracking, my job is moving the car, point A to point B, you load and unload.

  • @ladyj4011
    @ladyj4011 Před 4 měsíci +3

    I hate having back pain while I drive, but it is chronic so I take whatever works that day! You are real lucky Opie didn’t push you out of the bed, I have had that happen once and now I hang out in one spot most of the night. Adds to the back pain!😊
    Be safe out there man-- could be a beast looking for you now?!

    i learned this from a old school trucker when trucks where made of wood & drivers where made of steel ,, the next time your back goes out,, first take three(3) Ibuprofen, what it does is reduce
    the inflammation & ease pain,, next take a 2x4 [a little longer than your foot, three in. in front & back of your foot} set it down on the floor by your drivers door near the clutch , but not to interfere
    with the clutch operation, & set your left foot on top of that 2x4 while running down the road or sitting ,, also add heat from a heating pad ,, what it does it helps relieve the pressure off your back plus help alien your back,, i was told by an osteopath to get one leg higher than other, in these matters i have seen drivers put their foot on the dash,, this little trick works, you'll feel a pop or feel a crack or you may even hear it go back into it's position,, try it , it does work

  • @1911MikeinOregon
    @1911MikeinOregon Před 4 měsíci

    I'm the same way you are Kurt. In all the years that I drove truck, I very rarely sat down at a table in a restaurant
    and ate. The few times that I did do it was when I had a fairly long layover, or if I ran into someone I knew and
    had plenty of time. Otherwise it was grab something and head back out to the truck and eat, or if I didn't have
    a lot of time, I'd just eat on the fly... The few times I did do it, it was nice, but it was just more relaxed in the truck.

  • @thomasczyz1279

    I’ve had back spasms problems all my life and found out that walking and a heating pad work the best…icy hot helps a little…lucky for me I walked all day on my job so once I got my shoes on I could get to work,,,setting killed me…getting in and out of my pickup was hard but in a couple weeks I pretty much was back to normal.hope you feel better soon..ps putting my socks on I had to lay down for back support and to put my shoes on I had to use one of those pick up tools old people use to grab stuff from the ground with out bending…😎🇺🇸

      Yes, the socks are a bitch and a half. Going in toilet also is complicated and oh plus so many other things...
      Mentally it seems that u're coping well with all that *hit.
      Anyway, slow down man. Do what u must do but do it slowly and carefully please.

You can't use it while driving, but while you're in the sleeper or at home. Feels amazing! I believe ya on that monster... 😉 😉 😂 Stay safe!

    Well buddy, I can tell you from all the years of construction work, my back is gone. One of the worse things to happen is to lose the mobility in your back. As for my experience, stay the hell away from Chiroprators. They might ease some pain but they damn sure can not solve the problem. I had one of those quacks put me to sleeping in a chair for over six weeks sitting straight up and not in a recliner which I don't have in my house. With one push of her hands on the center of my back, she instantly caused me to have costochondritis. Look it up. Not fun to have. You probably have muscle strain. Take it easy and some Tylenol .
