I had just enough time to think "Wow this is going to hurt"
and it did.

I was splitting firewood this weekend and just as I started to swing the ax I shifted my position a little. I have no idea why I shifted. I basically just readjusted my weight as I started swinging the ax. I think it's because I'm just that smooth.

As soon as the ax hit the wood I felt it right in the small of my back. Now I'm all stiff and sore and whatnot.

3. I thought you were going to say you'd chopped off some part of your anatomy
At least you've still got all your fingers and toes!

4. We just had the majority of a huge sugar maple taken down.
I think I'm going to rent a wood splitter for that job, though. The bitch is that this wood won't even be seasoned for burning this winter.
