I hate Ice

Jim80 · 01-08-09, 06:12 PM

I was leaving the house for work this morning and busted my a** after a brief encounter with a patch of ice , twisted my knee pretty good and ended uo with a sore back as well

. Nothing a day at work couldn't fix . It will be fun to try to walk tomorrow .

Hope the knee and back are okay Jim.

bamabassman · 01-08-09, 07:50 PM

sorry jim. hope the neighbors didn't see it. i don't mean to laugh at cha...really i don't. i know how a bad back and messed up knee feels. but ya gotta admit it was probably funny to see huh?

woody · 01-08-09, 10:23 PM

Jim sorry to hear about your fall, I've always said that I would rather it happen to me instead of one of the kids or my wife. Milk it for all you can buddy.

BigBassin144 · 01-09-09, 04:40 PM

Sorry to hear about that man, hope ya feel better. I've fallen down the steps before, so I guess It's kinda the same.

keithdog · 01-09-09, 10:40 PM

I hear ya Jim. Hope your feeling better. I caught a small patch of ice on my front porch stoop last winter and fell down 6 cement steps. I really screwed up my left hand, and my back took a beating on the steps. My left hand hasn't been the same since. I suspect I broke something back then. I really hate winter.

woody · 01-09-09, 10:51 PM

Hi Keith,
How much snow are you getting up there in Valpo. ? We've got a about an inch on the ground but it supposed to start up again late tonight with snow and ice. I'm with ya, I hate winter too.

bamabassman · 01-10-09, 09:52 AM

jim how are ya doing pal? getting better i hope. the back is the hardest injury to heal i think.

Bo Dale James Jr. · 01-10-09, 10:14 AM

Jim at least it wasn't..... This!

Jim80 · 01-10-09, 11:23 AM

It is doing better guys , the knee is what is giving me the most trouble , and that pic is great man

Jim

keithdog · 01-10-09, 02:02 PM

Woody, we got about 3 inches overnight. Were supposed to get another couple inches today. The snow blower is a workin, lol.

pig n jig · 01-10-09, 05:57 PM

Jim,I am with ya on hating the ice.I fell 3 times in the last few days.Getting fatter or something cause I am landing alot harder than I use to.

My neck is a bit sore as my wrist took most of the punishment. We are getting a storm now.They are calling for 10" of snow by tomorrow.

There ain't nothin like throwing a spinnerbait through new fluffy snow.

Jim80 · 01-10-09, 06:01 PM

We are prob getting the same storm you are it started snowing here around 1:30 and is going strong . I'll have to give the spinner in powder a shot. I could just see the neighbors and my wife's face already.

Jim

bamabassman · 01-10-09, 07:26 PM

we are about to get ANOTHER line of thunderstorms. man am i tired of winter.

Jim80 · 01-10-09, 07:41 PM

yeah me to bama but at least in your version of winter you can still fish.

Jim

bamabassman · 01-10-09, 07:53 PM

Not in 50 mph winds.

IS300n8 · 01-11-09, 08:17 PM

I hear you with that stupid ice storm last week jim. i somehow had no idea that it was coming. so i wake up monday morning and jump outta bed, get ready then i pick up my dog to bring him outside. go running out my back steps.... the second my foot hits the top step i realize its shiny, Man i went down HARD.. I grabbed my dog like a football so i didnt fall on him and break his back. needless to say 10 steps later i feel like i chipped my hip bone or something cause a week later it still hurts like hell..

bamabassman · 01-11-09, 08:38 PM

ya know, i truly do feel or yu guys and gals up in our northern states. i mean...there is NO way in HADES i could EVER live up there i don't think. well if i HAD to i would, but not by choice. i hate winter, HATE it. but without it we wouldn't have as nice a spring and summer here a know. but i DO feel for ya'll up there. it may not seem cold to ya'll, but when i have to get out and work in 20 degree weather (outside), and it only warms up to around 45 or so. man i don't care WHO ya are that's cold. so i can't inmagine what it would be like to have to go out there and work outside in sub zero weather. all i can say take care of yourself and try to stay warm gang.

keithdog · 01-12-09, 08:36 PM

Thanks Bama. They are forcasting a blizzard warning tonight with temps dipping below zero. Maybe I should get out of here and head south. Wish I could.

bamabassman · 01-12-09, 09:44 PM

well keith, we are about to get the COLDEST week of our winter this week. lows getting down to the SINGLE digit, high maybe 20. in ALABAMA?!?!?! i am in the northeast corner, but it ain't supposed to get THIS cold. hahaha.

JB · 01-13-09, 10:35 AM
