Today started crisp and bright. A temp of -2 ensured a well wrapped demolition man. Task today. Remove the wall dividing the upstairs back bedrooms to create one room for Raphael. All started well with the isolation of the electrics. The next phase was the removal of the door and frame. This was achieved in quick time before the supporting beading was removed which held the offending wall in place. Out came sledge to get the damage done. No problemo I hear you cry....... Three quarters of the way through the task.....OUCH.....*********etc... my arm let out an incredible scream of pain, followed shortly after by its owner. I had managed to jar my arm to the point of feeling feint with pain. I collapsed the wall, then collapsed myself. A pleading call to loving wife resulted in a swift journey to the accident unit at the local hospital. The resulting waiting time allowed some natural healing, so the result was not as bad as feared. A couple of days of light duty should see me fit again. Well that incredible green "chunscht" is challenging me, and I am ready (well almost) for the challenge.
Sub Note. Have placed a bid for a trailer to start carting the debris away. Will find out result Jan. 2nd.
