I just carried two very large through-the-wall air conditioners down two flights of stairs and out to the curb. I'm going to pay for this tomorrow.

I feel mostly fine right now but I know I'm going to be hurting when I wake up tomorrow. Also, one of the units had a flat piece of metal going around the frame that cut into my arms real good. That hurts a bunch right now.
Getting old sucks. This would have been no issue for a younger Krusty.

You probably just weren't wearing the right shoes, brah. -- nm - Qale May 22, 18:33
I had to dig a hole for a tree, a ten gallon hole with 20 gallons of rocks pulled out, Don't know how that works -- (pic) - zeitgeist May 22, 18:13 [Attachment] 1
- Will you also have to add supports for those bad weather days? - Krusty May 22, 18:23
Why are you dumping in the wall AC units? Aren't they repairable? -- nm - zeitgeist May 22, 17:46 1
- Sadly, not. One is at least 30+ years old and hasn't worked in years. The other was a replacement that broke and had mold so it had to go as well. - Krusty May 22, 18:20
I understand. today was cactus trimming day for me and I needed also to have a few large pieces saved for a friend to plant in his yard. -- nm - Peglegpete May 22, 16:00 6
- Yeesh. How large are the cactus? -- nm - Krusty May 22, 16:20 5
  - the 15" diameter mickey mouse ears. He needs several ears connected to another to plant right. 30+ pounds each. and the bits I am tossing got cut -- (pic) - Peglegpete May 22, 16:28 [Attachment] 4
    - yes I have a chainsaw. these need a good 6" buried when planted. because of their size, you need a deep solid base. -- nm* - Peglegpete May 22, 16:31 3
      - Interesting. Also, very cool looking cactus. :-) -- nm - Krusty May 22, 17:28 2
        
        this is the cactus pile in the garage drying out so when Brian is here in 10 days they are ready to plant. yes that is a yardstick for scale. -- (pic) - Peglegpete May 22, 18:21 [Attachment] 1
        
        They're huge. Way bigger than the succulents Theresa keeps in the house. :-) -- nm - Krusty May 22, 18:28
