I wanted to work on my car today, Steve was going to come over and help me with the new shift rod adjustment so I can get all the gears but lifting that engine this morning had pulled a muscle in my back and now I am having spasms. My god it hurts. I took some ibuprofin and waiting for it to kick in. Doesnt look like I am going to get much done on the car today. I still have to figure out how to get the engine out of the back of my truck too. Any volunteers wanna come unload it?

I just spoke to the girl from Hooters... she said she'd be right over to "rub" it
Hope you're feeling better

Hey I wasnt stalking her, I just happened to talk to her a few times and she took our picture for us. Ok, so I got her number and email address. Big deal, it doesnt mean anything. She does work for a health care company. Hmmm

Put ice on it for the first 24 hours (help reduce any swelling), then throw the heating pad on it. BTDT

Get a couple of guys, a 2x4 aboout 8' long and slide it down load it on jack. Greg Robbins and unload on that way a few weeks ago it worked great. Don't do anything with your back let the help do the lifting and balancing. Feel better soon!

You never should have put your hoist up for sale.

Well, I have some pretty big friends. Joe offered to come over and help but has to go to a dentist appointment at 3 so timing was off. Then another friend of mine called and he is about 6'6" and his 16 year old son is 6'8" but he is not with him this weekend. I will figure out something I am sure.

Alternate heat and ice on the inflamed area. Heat promotes healing and the cold reduces the inflamation. Rest.
