Gary. Take it fom someone who "pushed through" back pain and ended up with 5 back surgeries. Let it heal now or lose much more time and ability later. I wouldn't wish what I've gone through on anyone.
I had back surgery for a ruptured disc and I still have pain especially since arthritis set in it but I keep on keeping on and not give in too much
Gary you gotta take care of yourself. The 41.36 NEED A HOT TuB!!
I've been dealing with sciatica for months and I'll tell you, if you don't do the right thing for you, it does not get better on its own. That's probably the worst pain I've ever gone through😱
Happy Late Mother’s Day to you to Mel. Mine was tough. I lost my son in November and he was always the first one to call me. Of course my daughter called me and she is still with us with God’s Grace hopefully he will keep her with us as long as he can as she has Stage 4 Aggressive Paraganglioma Cancer. She made it to her 36yr old BD in March which we didn’t think would happen so we are blessed. I received flowers from my son’s widow and flowers from my neighbor. My husband BBQ’s some steaks and my fur babies loved on me. It was good overall. God gave me grace all day and showed me memories to be thankful for.
Prayers for you and your husband 🙏 ❤️
@michellemartens6372 My heart goes out to you. 😘
Much Love and prayers ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️He is still with you!🌺❤️🌺
🌹💕
Even through our losses in this life, God always gives us something to be thankful for. Sending many prayers for your daughter.
Gary you need some physical help getting the deck roof on. You have to take care of your back. You dont want to cause permanent damage. ❤
Mel a doctor told me once your back does not go out from just picking up a box. It’s usually from something you did the day before like lifting something heavy in the morning before your body is ready! He told me always stretch in the mornings. Much love to you both! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Sometimes it’s not lifting heavy, just the way you move as you pick something up. Moving with back problems becomes an applied science, an art form, to get th8ngs done.
I had back surgery in. 1993 best thing I ever did. Surgeon said, DO NOT GO TO ANYMORE CHIROPRACTORS. They just give temporary relief and it will gradually get worse and worse. See a neurologist instead. Good luck and prayers for you both.
The meet up is going to be bomb ! Love your faces can’t wait to see ya ! Gary … I’m sorry but welcome to the bad back club 🙃
Cant wait to meet the first homesteaders we started watching 3 years ago (you guys)! From there we have "met" so many others that have inspired us to do a little more on our homestead than we have ever done. (I planted a garden for the first time!) See y'all Friday!
If you go to the fabric store and buy ballet tutu fabric (yes they make it in green!), you can coverthe plants. You can tack it down loosely so it doesn't blow away. It wll keep the birds out of your strawberries. Another fun activity for the kids, they can paint flat stones to look like strawberries. Put them in open areas in the strawberry patch. The birds will peck at them and when they don't get anywhere, they will stop trying!
I HAVE CHRONIC BAD BACK PAIN,HANDICAPPED FROM IT, THAN MY BLOOD PRESSURE DROPS UPON STANDING, SO NOT ABLE TO STAND LONG. I MISS DOING THE THINGS I LOVED TO DO.MISS COOKING , MY YARD WORK, CANNING, HAVING A GARDEN, MILLION THINGS. ONCE YOU HURT YOUR BACK IT’S NEVER THE SAME, HAD BACK SURGERY, IT HELPED, MY HIP SURGERY MADE MY BACK PAIN.❤❤❤❤❤
Hey Gary! Can you talk about how RUclips works at the meet-up? How people get "monetized", how superchats/thanks work, why do some people get "copyrighted" for the music in the background, how does Drew get away with the songs he plays in his videos, etc.
Drew doesn't get away with it. He just doesn't collect any monetization from his videos. RUclips can still monetize the videos if they want, and the ad revenue will go to the bands/record labels...whoever owns the music.
I had my best day,best one ever. Being a widow,my step kids,I hate that term,came,lots of outside stuff that I can't do alone,dinner I didn't have to coik,garden started,weather in my part of Wisconsin was awesome. Best day. Nothing from my son,but it is what it is. Glad you all enjoyed the day. Listen to your body!! It knows best.
Dont wait to go the chiropractor. You don't want to be up there and your back goes out and fall. Call in the framily to get it done.
Good morning! Congrats on Julia’s graduation 🧑🎓 I can’t believe how grown up the kid’s are since the move…😢 You go craft this week & be MaMa💕Auntie Laura🙏🙏🙏Blessing’s
So glad you had a great Ladies(MOM) day! Hope y'all have an awesome day, week. Yes Gary, you need to rest your back.
Hi Gary please go to your Chiropractor THIS WEEK. When I pushed through, I was out of action for over 12 weeks! It's NOT worth it as you go forward with a more injured back. Take care
Mel, glad you had a wonderful Mother's Day. Roxane made it special for everyone. Gary, go to the chiropractor this week. Your health is so important. There is so much more building you want to do , get better now. Relax this coming weekend. There will be plenty of others to do the work at the meetup. Congratulations to Julia!!
Good morning ☕ Gary & Mel
Oh how I wish we could be at the Meetup. Hubby and I are not in great shape, but I love watching you, CRC, Mike and Lyssa , Dogman, Bobblehead, and wish I could meet each of you. I see you guys doing what we did back in the 80's working on your home and living in it while working. I remember once when a friend came by, we didn' t even have kitchen cabinets, I could not even fix her a sandwich
A belated Happy Mom's day. Amazon has netting to put over you berries to keep out the bugs and critters. I ordered netting, frame to support the netting and staples to hold it in place. It should be here on Thursday. I’ll let you know how it works out.
Waffle s sounded great! 🌸🌺🥀
Happy mother's day Mel ❤❤❤❤ sit back and enjoy
I have been in AR from Texas for about 3 months now. In my experience it is not just a little different. It is huge everyone I have meet or said hello to as I walked by has been so very nice! So much for TX being the "friendly" state. Now to be fair when I say TX I mean Austin, and San Antonio so yah big cites where everyone ignores each other cause no one has time to talk. See you this weekend!
Take care of yourselves, MoM loves you. What a good time yesterday and fun times ahead this w/e!!! I wanna see Gary get dunked! 😂 Love you all. Love, MoM
Good Morning Mel and Gary!! ☕️ 💐💕 Mel I Hope you had a Wonderful Mother's Day!! 😊
Good morning Mel and Gary, take care of your back Gary don’t over due it. I have had a bad back for years , not nice. 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦
To me, you guys are very kind. Your kindness shines👍
Mel, Happy Mothers Day...as a Mother......YOU ARE A GIFT FROM GOD... Scott from Goldfield
Happy Blessed Mother's Day Melanie! 💖 💐
Gary,
My husband and i have both been experiencing bad back pain lately. Sciatica nerve pain as well.
Every morning I wake up, i place a heating pad in the recliner i sit in. I let the heat stay on my back for thirty minutes. After 30 minutes, I am able to move without as much stiffness and pain.
At night time, i place a bed pillow under my knees to elevate them. This relieves pain and causes the back muscles to relax while laying down on your bed.
This helps to give the lower lumbar back a break from the stress on the spine. My physical therapist taught me this years ago.
If you remain proactive and take care of yourself now, you will heal much quicker.
We will be keeping you in prayer.
❤😂❤😂❤
Mel, it's wonderful to know how yalls day went yesterday. Always nice to be spoiled sometimes. 💓💓
Go to the doctor that cracks it works so much also an Epson Salt bath.
Mel, if you could download the chair yoga or floor yoga it will help Gary a lot. Will help strengthen the muscles he has to help his back
Happy mothers day. We will have to miss this year's meet up, but it's for a wonderful reason lol. Brand new grandson has arrived and we have to care for mom and baby and big brother. Catch you all next yr. Will email soon with other additions to our homestead that will be needing places to go.
I am glad you had a great Mother's Day. Roxanne is so awesome. I'm glad Mama V got to be there as well. Gary, maybe you should take it easy this week and let your body recover. The meet-up will be stressful trying to get everything done. Be safe, my friends. I will be there in spirit and wish I could be there in person. With lots of love from your crazy friend in ohio
❤ I am sure the meetup will be fun and a successful fundraiser event.
Happy Mothers day Mel.❤❤❤ I'm on my way from Oregon on Amtrak. Now on the Texas Eagle to Little Rock. See you on Friday.
Hello 🤗 sounds like a fun & delicious waffle brunch @ Roxane s 😋 I went to granddaughters nursing graduation & grandson went with me to cemetery where my Mom & Son are & daughter & son in law had me for delicious supper 😋💖 Gary, hope you heal soon 🙏 Have a good day ❤️
Loans pills are specifically for lower back pains. Try it Gary.
Please explain all your relatives on the different shows
Gary, You need to go to one of the Chiropractors in Texas who do “Ring Dingers”.
I have had an injection for my sciatic nerve and it really helped!!
I’ve been praying so hard since I first started watching that your bodies stay healthy. When I was y’all’s age my disc ruptured and now I can’t do anything I used to! Please take care of that back Gary!
Healing love and energy to you both xXx
Happy Mother’s Day Mel💐❤️🤗
Real life comes first
Awesome video God Bless you and your family Amen
Good morning and happy Monday!
You guys need to invest in an inversion table. It will benefit everyone on the 43.6. You won’t regret it
WOW!! Rox pulled off another fantastic meal. Is there anything she can't do 😁😂. So glad you enjoyed your Mama's day ❤. Miss you all very much.
The Morrigan 🤘🏻 hovering
Happy Mother's Day 😊
It wasn’t the weight of the box it’s the way that you bent over and I know what you’re saying Mel you can pull a muscle and not even realize it until you’ve done it
Happy Late Mother’s Day I had a great day my youngest son came to visit and I thoroughly enjoyed his visit and I hated to see him go but it was so nice seeing him
Hi Gary, sorry about your back. I have lived with a back problem since about 15 years old. I had to learn my limitations. I nursed, was a fire and rescue officer, helicopter rescue officer despite that back. I had learnt ways to get things done sometimes in extreme situations, as you could imagine, but got through. I have suggested the use of lifting tackle, using ratchet straps and clamps, they can become a great asset to you while building with a crook back. I too built a few homes with my back problem, just do it with awareness, it may be slower but you get it done. My first home too 10 years, so be patient and kind to yourself. Also take care of Mel as she tries too hard while you are trying too hard, you both are at risk. The back niggles but it’s not unbearable. If you learn how to get the hard stuff done, working with all helping tools you can make or buy, you will be surprised. When I have trenching to dig, I warm pack the back for a while before I start, it helps heaps but it doesn’t protect your back, just soothes those seeming muscles so you can move more. The other thing is to develop a set of core body strengthening exercises to help your back. A sports physio may have great advice for this. Don’t ignore these warnings and tough them out. You have to tough out the pain without opiates. Opiates don’t help in the long run. I found Pilates exercises such a great help for strengthening the core while some yoga stretches helped a lot too. Just go to some classes and think the strategies through. Happy to email what I do if that may give inspiration.
Also there are people who don’t think I have a problem because of what I have done, I do have days where I am dropped to my knees. I mentioned those long handled shovels as a back irritator. Using one can easily take me over that line and I am done for 2 weeks, no fun just a grumpy old man. Who wants that. I try to be as positive, but not over the top like a maniac, I am mindful of my back and also my age, now 69 and retired. If I sit too long it’s harder to get up and moving. I watch a few channels on RUclips and then I have to move. As I have often said, I love you guys, you are such a great couple with a beautiful family. Take care.
Good Morning 🌞Happy Mother’s Day 🎉
Mel & Gary ..Glad you guys had a great day yesterday..Congratulations on Julia’s graduation…..❤❤❤
Morning Guys❤
What ever you do back surgery is not the answer. Stand at the back of a chair, hang on to it and lift your leg backwards.it will help your nerve problem in your back, i did that an it helped my back. Also the bed mattress ,maybe change that. It matters what kind of mattress your laying on. Just rest as much as possible. There are different excercises a person can do to help their backs.
Hope you get to feeling better soon, Gary. Memorie foam helped my back a lot. Have a blessed day. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thinking you need to do warm up stretching before work, once you are better.
Gary. Go to the chiropractor today. You will be able to do better sooner, rather than deal in pain and go slow.
Hello from Kentucky can’t wait to meet y’all. I’m really interested on how to get started With u tube. Have a great day.
Feel better, Gary.
Gary get better and take care of yourself and I will be praying for you
Talk about being debt-free
Yes it's foggy here too more rain coming 😢 yall are looking great ❤
The greatest commandment of all is to love thy neighbor!
Was your local community in Danville, Booneville, Russellville, the kids school invited to the meetup? I think it would be pretty cool to have lots of your actual neighbors go to the event.
Mike passed out flyers all over the community the other day.
@@TexasGrammieB Thank you for the reply! I'm happy about that❤
Hey all of you guys
Good morning Coffee… have a great day ahead and be safe
Sounds like Gary will have to resort to 'thinkin' things up time' or small, sit down projects for a healing while. I always had "to do" lists...sunny days, rainy days, sit down jobs and major ones. Had back issues all my life, so you just learn to go with the flow!
Yea, I know that feeling Gary of the "It's still there" it's better but it's still there is not the mentality to have. There is no push through it at the moment! Please wear that brace. If it hurts, stop, don't do it. Rest your back. Take over the counter anti inflammatory like generic alleve (naproxen) or ibuprofen (advil). Even if it is not hurting. Take it for few days to get inflammation down, hurting or not. See if it helps. You do NOT want to push it to the point of back spasms😢 that's no fun. Never knew just how strong the back muscle is until it feels like its ripping your spine out the Ole rectum lol😂 just rest. Anti inflammatory for few days. See if it's better. I bet you can find 101 smaller things to keep you occupied and busy around the homestead that is not back breaking work. CHILL SIR!
💥💥Rest your back. Use heat 15 min. Then in 45 use ice for 15 min. Stretch when you can and call the chiropractor man.
Happy Mother’s Day
Believe it or not get a set of braces for any nail-bag, tool-bag, or anything that hangs of your waist you will be amazed the difference it makes.
God Bless from your Canadian Friend. I live in Ontario and in the country was born and raised on a farm and I feel like all of you are very close friends. I know when a lot of you are having a birthday, I know Ant and Rox just had an anniversary.. Have a great time.
Angry you need aback support your muscles are weak and until you strengthen them you will need to wear a support. It will save your back and a lot of pain
Personal question if I wanted to do this where do u get your health insurance ? Adorable?
Gary is your family Amish??!! Gumby is Garth Mike is Wayne!! I hope the kids bathed after being in that green pond!!
Please let the back heal or you won’t be able to walk, it is not a case of working through it it is a case of making it worse.
❤😊❤️💪👍🌹🌺💖🌸🪻
You live in fantasy land. I have done a lot for my neighbors. They snub me. I shoveled their snow multiple times several years. I clean their trash. I clean gutters and street and sidewalk, and they dirty it again. You have been away from the city too long. Go to New york and see how kindness pans out for you. Las Vegas, Denver. It's not like where you are. If you're too nice, someone will rip you off.
For sure, rest your back…. Get help when lifting awkward or heavy things. You only have one spine! You both put a lot of strain on your back doing all that block work.
Maybe you need to hire some professionals to help with that roof over the deck!!! Go to Mama V’s and get your safety gear. Get you a man to help you.
