As someone that has been dealing with back issues for well over 40 years, I can tell you that stretching everyday, and I mean EVERYDAY, goes a very long way in staying pain free. I crushed a disc in my back to the point where it pinched off my spinal cord, they removed that crushed disc in September of 1978, and as long as I stretch everyday, I am totally pain free. I am not a doctor, so I can't say it will work for everyone, but it sure works for me. I wish you and Steve all the best.
As a fellow back pain sufferer I agree with this statement. And will add if you find ( a good deep tissue massage therapist) unfortunately they are not all the same, they can work wonders. Everything works better and feels better when not in spasm.
Ditto, as a fellow back …… I’m in PT right now for the lower back pain. I was a volunteer firefighter in PA when a barn beam fell from 20’ above hit my lower back and pinned me to the floor. I’ve got bad disks and stenosis down there T12 L1 area. BUT I cannot give up building stuff, so the battery operated heating/vibrating Velcro belt is getting daily use. The arthritis in both my hands is killing me but with compression and ice gloves, i make it another day. I am so inspired to get back outside and build cabin like ( sheds ) structures, similar to your cliff side cabin. Keep up the fantastic work and video’s. 44 years ago i started videoing my building projects, being a licensed remodeling contractor in Delaware back then, i discovered that projects took 2-3 times longer because of the camera work. No you tube back then, just AOL, who recognized my social activity on their building forms, and they asked me to be a permanent moderator for them. BUT, not having full time, time to do that, i thanked them and respectfully said no thank you. Damn, imagine if i kept up with the video’s, I’d be a You Tube millionaire by now. Lol.
Same here. Stretching and a hard foam roller are the only things that keep me mobile. I roll out all the snap crackle and pops as soon as I get out of bed. When I do get a sprain, I wear a tight lifting belt until it heals, the destructive spams happen due to the instability of your core. I find tricking my body into thinking I have good abs and obliques with a belt really settles them down :)
Hope Steve feels a lot better. In my 40's I used to have to roll out of bed onto the floor and grab the window ledge to pull myself up. Just terrible bad pain. I don't know what happened, but it's gone now. Yep, Steve's walk brought back memories.
Always enjoyed Japan. Was stationed in Okinawa for a year, and 2 years in Iwakuni. Just not enough wilderness and snow for me, so Alaska is the perfect place for me.
Prayers my friends, and they will continue from SE Texas Love you guys Michelle, tell Steve Hey and prayers -Bear 💙❤💯🙏 and all the fur babies as well :)
Hi Michelle, My name is Roy and I just found your channel by chance. It brought back great memories working for Dale Foote, tailing on his sawmill. Dale trained me well. I was green as grass when he hired me, and I remember his words well; Dale said to me, " Roy, my job is to make that mill spit out sawdust, that's how we make money. If there isn't sawdust spitting out of the mill, then we aren't making money . Your job is everything else it takes to keep me spitting sawdust from the mill." That was the best training session I ever had and those great memories came back watching your shows. I did the same as you with the slabs for firewood. Thank you and keep on spitting sawdust !;)P.S. I pray that Steve's back gets better... an inversion table works for me, just a suggestion.. God bless you both and your beautiful family of furry friends.
Hi Michy, best of luck to Steve for his back surgery. I’ve had two surgeries on my back starting in 2002 and last one in 2021. You have to keep in the back of you head that you just can’t do what you used to. I’m 71 now and doing great so Steve again best of luck to you and Michy
Best wishes for Steve's surgery. You take care too, don't work too hard. Most tasks will wait a bit for your attention. At least the newcomers in the siding went to bat to help out. 8^) Cheers!
We have an American Bulldog or Staffordshire Terrier and she rather enjoys chewing up shoes, remotes, my computer mice (plural lol) plastic bottles, wood from our fire wood, window sashes among other things, but we still love her! My wife has chronic back problems so I'm really feeling for Steve as I know what he must be going thru. We'll keep him in our thoughts and prayers this next week and hope he gets some relief from all this. Hang in there lady. You're amazing!
Thank you my friend! Clyde doesn’t chew anything now, it was really just a stress thing. Actually now that I think about it, many of the rescues we’ve had over the years have gone through a chewing phase, due to stress, but none of them chew anything now. Clyde could chew anything, and I would love him the same no matter what. We love our pets, don’t we!?! 🥰
You should make some bat boxes and put them up around your property to hopefully entice the bats to go there instead of back inside your cabin walls. If you don't know, a bat box is basically a bird house but for a bat. Good luck with the surgery, hopefully it's very routine and has a speedy recovery.
As a trucker i suffer with back pains whenever i relax.When i am active it goes away. I hope the surgery hels.Steve. Best wishes to him in a seedy recovery.I can’t think of any worse pain except pregnancy but that’s something I won’t ever experience thank goodness 😂😂
Good Luck with surgery Steve. I've had 4 back surgeries unfortunately the last two were termed Failed Back Surgery. This was 20 years ago and I'm still getting along with things. Wishing Steve well with everything.
Good luck with the surgery, glad you came to the States! Thanks for the water scene….a bit more would be so appreciated 😉, probably would have been hard to breathe, but would be totally worth it ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Well big thanks to Steve for taking the time to share with us. Hoping his surgery fixes all his pain problems, yes he is very right when he said a hottie came in the room. Your mom’s shirt looks good on you well I think you probably make anything look good. Yes moving stuff to get to other stuff is a big pain in the wood shed, metal bin was the same way till I put up racks to be more organized. Hoping all goes smooth sailing in the next week for Steve and you. Thanks for sharing the adventure
I wish the best ... I had my spinal column closed up on me.. One month in wheel chair and then had the operation. They had to open up my column, luckly I walked out of the hospital after the surgery.. Tanh God for the surgeon that helped me .
Steve is extremely fortunate...to have a top notch RN to help him thru this.....hopefully he has a speedy recovery. Is amazing what they do now days. My wife has had r back surgerys, 15 years apart.....now 71 years old...and will not retire, after 30 plus years as a Custodian and Commercial cleaner. She says it hurts (physically) to quit working. I am thinking of getting her a new push mower...as she will not drive riding mower....LOL !!!!
We have a push mower at home, and I like that. But out there, it’s a whole different can of worms. And we get spend so little time out there as it is, reducing the time spent maintaining the weeds has become a welcome change 😁
Michelle, be sure to let Steve know that we all are rooting for a successful surgery and recovery for him! Also, it's good to see the doggos are living their best lives!
Sorry to hear about Steves back troubles. Good luck on his surgery, he has a great nurse at his side to help him. God bless you both. You will be in my prayers. 🙏🙏
Poor Steve!! Back issues are horrible, but mechanical and can be fixed!!! By now he is probably on the road to recovery!! Tell Steve to heed the doctor's advice when he says not to push it and to take the time to recover. My doctor told me that if patient pushes too hard, too soon, the back can't heal properly!! Looking forward to seeing Steve in relaxed recovery!!! ❤
That Steve, what a chatter bug. lol. Talking about his trip to Japan kept me on the edge of my seat. I really hope and pray that all goes well with his back.
Hi Michelle. My wishes go out to Steve for a quick recovery soon. As always you look gorgous. Things and projects never end. Great video. Stay safe and happy.
I wish you the best in your surgery Steve. I know everything will be good in time. Do what the doc(and Michelle) directs you to do and heal well and fast. Michelle, be strong. You're an amazing wife and woman and your strength and patience will shine through. I wish you both the best and we are all here to give you support.And may God's healing heart be with you.
It was good to see Steve and you as well home from Japan. Pray for speedy recovery for him 🙏 He has a excellent nurse to have when he's home. Ol CLYDE!!
I wish you and Steve a quick return to normal functioning. Back to trivial problems, to fun situations, to walks with the dogs. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you.
Get well, Steve, I know you’re in good hands with Michelle, taking care of you. Michelle, thank you for all the videos you have posted. It has helped me heal from heart surgery.❤
I suffer from cervical stenosis, so I know what Steve is going through. Praying for the absolute best results for him. Thanks for all your informative videos and keep up the good work. Don`t over do it!
For your woodshed: I usually see them made of metal but I have seen wooden ones. But a board at 90° to the wall without an outer leg is the best solution for storage. Can be done with outer leg if you want to end load. Leave a foot or 2 between and go as high as you can comfortably reach.
Good to see you again, to bad about the deck and the well pump, but Steve of course is the most important, so here's wishing Steve a great outcome and recovery moving forward.
I had my spine broken 5 different times. and one day I couldn't walk any more.emergency spine surgery. my heart goes out to Steve. if he ever needs to chat with someone who knows give me a shout. love u both..I also lived on my boats for 21 years. I'm a salty guy.
Gosh. That sounds awful. He’s done but it’s been a very rough recovery so far. The surgery was double what we expected, and recovery 10x worse than either of us expected. But, hopefully each day gets even just a little bit better 🤞 He does have the best nurse taking care of him though 😊
I saw the suggestion of making bat boxes. With your creative talents, I'm sure you could fashion those slab scraps into some awesome bat boxes. I wish you and Steve the best with upcoming surgery.
I can feel every bit of back pain Steve is going thru. Had my surgery some 30 years ago and it helped. I was told that it may come back over the years and now it has. For the past 4 years I have been in pain, some days worse than others. Being 70 years old, I'm not too sure I want to go thru surgery again. Atleast you understand his pain, must be due to your profession. My Wife acts like I still should be a 20 something year old and just get things done around here.
Good luck with everything! My old man suffers the same issues. He's nearly 60. Currently they are looking at implanting a Spinal Stimulator into his back. Crazy stuff!
LOVE the red flannel, we in Ontario call that a Kawartha Lake dinner jacket! Had a red and green one back in the day. Glad to see Steve is back safe and sound 👍
Wishing Steve good luck. With the amount of physical work you do it's now wonder you have some pain. Hope it doesn't get worse. Good ol' Clye. He lets the world know he is here. He makes me smile.
For wood storage use thicker stickers between planks so you can get fork lift tangs in. Then you can simply lift off the pile to get to the choosen plank. Racking doesn't work unless you have narrow long space. Thanks for video content.Really enjoy them, well polished show. And heres to Steve getting back to full strength soon.
Love that flannel shirt. It's so classic. Stuff like that is coming back. Very clever way to cut spare wood. Hoping that Steve fully recovers. Do worry about the addictive effects of the morphine and Percocet. Understand why Steve has the surgery in the US -- the Canadian waiting list is unreal.
To create flexible shelves to store lumber you could attach ropes to the rafters in a loop with various lengths to create a cradle for wood at various levels below the rafters.
Steve's sense of humor is great and will help in the surgery recovery. You are certainly a wonderful helper, with your medical training, and my prayers are that this "season" will strengthen your relationship together and allow him to be pain-free for many years. Hope you don't need something similar with all of the heavy lifting that you do.
puffed out he's chest and looked and said oh it's just you! Thanks for Sharing, Michelle and our very best to Steve and that back surgery goes flawlessly. Prayers to you both.
YALL ARE IN MY PRAYERS,ESPECIALLY STEVE. I HAVE SEVERE STENOSIS AND DJD, SO FAR I HAVE HAD 2 SURGERIES, THE FIRST ONE DID SO MUCH GOOD FOR ME. THE SECOND ONE,NOT SO MUCH.. I KNOW ABOUT THE CRAWLING SITUATION,AND ITS NOT FUN. SO STEVE STAY STRONG.
Sunday morning can't come soon enough. Anticipating some of your softly spoken voice-overs. They have a very soothing effect......😌 I really like your singing in the previous video. More please!!! I always enjoy it when you treat us to a surprise appearance from the menagerie of Michygoss characters!!! 👏 Hope all is well. ☮️ on 🌎
I certainly can relate to Steve's issues, I have Ankylosing spondylitis, different to what Steve is going through, but unbearable pain at times, please send my best regards for a successful and speedy recovery, Love your videos!, Thanks for sharing!
Yeah, a rack for your wood is a great idea. In the style of kayak racks, but with sturdier support frames. Pole frame is fine. Preserve your good lumber well.
Best wishes to Steve! I was lucky in that I switched from a desk job to a physical job in my early fifties. That made me build up my core strength and killed my back problems. Doesn't mean I don't remember what it was like though, even if mine was only muscular.
M! Prayers for Steveo! He's tough and has the best nurse ever, so he'll heal quicker than most. Thanks for loving him. I loved the shot of SG, King of the Jungle, calmly overlooking his kingdom at the dawning of a new day. ❤ Your rough-sawn lumber will give the perfect grip for bats climbing into their new houses. 😊 Thanks for sharing, MG!
-As an orthopedic surgeon I have both done and had lumbar surgery. Tell Steve that he will surely get relief from that procedure.
My father had done and it was a game changer.

WELL MICHELLE, CLYDE JUST WANTED TO CUSTOMIZE YOUR STUFF FOR YOU. AS FOR STEVE I'M PRAYING FOR A SPEEDY RECOVERY. BE SAFE AND GOD BLESS YOU AMEN.

Hope Steve is on the mend by now stay strong and positive.

Fingers crossed for Steves surgery. I look forward to seeing the next videos with him healing up nicely.
Michelle, be sure to let Steve know that we all are rooting for a successful surgery and recovery for him! Also, it's good to see the doggos are living their best lives!
I feel bad he has that pain. I am living with the same thing.
Sincerely hoping that Steve gets sorted out next week.
All the best to both of you.

OH MAN TONS OF WORK YOU HAVE!!!.... HOPE ALL IS WELL WITH STEVE!....GET WELL SOON!
Prayers for Steve and you that the surgery goes well and he has a good recovery. Hang in there you two.
Good luck to Steve with the surgery. Spinal pain is simply awful.
I hope Steve has a successful surgery and speedy recovery. It's hard to see people in pain.

Hope all goes well for Steve! God speed his recovery!
It was good to see Steve and you as well home from Japan. Pray for speedy recovery for him 🙏 He has a excellent nurse to have when he's home. Ol CLYDE!!
The Hogan's Heroes clips on TV always crack me up when Steve's around. Edit: Oh, fuck. I'm really sorry about Steve's back. Good luck to you both.
I want to tell you good luck with the surgery, Steve. And a speedy recovery.
I think Clyde was saying "get well soon Steve" and "thanks a lot for sharing my fun chewing experience".
He was actually barking at the septic truck that was there when we had our septic tank pumped. Haha
Awesome wark as always!!! Fingers crossed and a speedy recovery Steve
I wish you and Steve a quick return to normal functioning. Back to trivial problems, to fun situations, to walks with the dogs. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you.
Get well, Steve, I know you’re in good hands with Michelle, taking care of you.
Michelle, thank you for all the videos you have posted. It has helped me heal from heart surgery.❤
I suffer from cervical stenosis, so I know what Steve is going through. Praying for the absolute best results for him. Thanks for all your informative videos and keep up the good work. Don`t over do it!
I will be praying for you guys, Gods peace ,Steve gets relief from the pain, and
for GOOD doctors
Best thoughts for a speedy recovery for Steve. Sending positive energy your way!
For your woodshed: I usually see them made of metal but I have seen wooden ones. But a board at 90° to the wall without an outer leg is the best solution for storage. Can be done with outer leg if you want to end load. Leave a foot or 2 between and go as high as you can comfortably reach.

LOVE the red flannel, we in Ontario call that a Kawartha Lake dinner jacket! Had a red and green one back in the day. Glad to see Steve is back safe and sound 👍
Guano (bat poop) On a much more serious note, hoping that Steve's surgery went well and that he's pain-free soon. Back pain is the worse.
Praying for Steve and a speedy recovery. Stay Safe!
I also wish the best for Steve! I love your videos and wish your and Steve the best in this healing process.
Wishing Steve good luck. With the amount of physical work you do it's now wonder you have some pain. Hope it doesn't get worse. Good ol' Clye. He lets the world know he is here. He makes me smile.

Best to Steve and you over the next week. Speaking from experience it can take your breath away.
Sunday morning can't come soon enough. Anticipating some of your softly spoken voice-overs. They have a very soothing effect......😌
I really like your singing in the previous video. More please!!!
I always enjoy it when you treat us to a surprise appearance from the menagerie of Michygoss characters!!! 👏
Hope all is well.

I certainly can relate to Steve's issues, I have Ankylosing spondylitis, different to what Steve is going through, but unbearable pain at times, please send my best regards for a successful and speedy recovery, Love your videos!, Thanks for sharing!
I have the same mate. Gotta just keep going!
God bless you Michelle
🎉 And let's all hope for a good and speedy recovery for Steve😊
Yeah, a rack for your wood is a great idea. In the style of kayak racks, but with sturdier support frames. Pole frame is fine. Preserve your good lumber well.
Best wishes to Steve! I was lucky in that I switched from a desk job to a physical job in my early fifties. That made me build up my core strength and killed my back problems. Doesn't mean I don't remember what it was like though, even if mine was only muscular.
Prayers that Steve's back surgery goes well and for Michelle's strength to help deal with all that is to come.
M! Prayers for Steveo! He's tough and has the best nurse ever, so he'll heal quicker than most. Thanks for loving him.
I loved the shot of SG, King of the Jungle, calmly overlooking his kingdom at the dawning of a new day. ❤
Your rough-sawn lumber will give the perfect grip for bats climbing into their new houses. 😊
Thanks for sharing, MG!
