Cranberry Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Today I learned how to split logs. I split a whole silver birch. I'm so proud of myself I was splitting most of the logs with only one hit. I think I will definitely need a hot bath tonight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olly Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Respect! I have a log splitter ... cheaper than the physio I'd need after splitting by hand! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 I admire you! We bought our logs in already spit, but they are not they best split logs I've seen! A good soak in Radox for you I reckon! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 There is something very satisfying about wielding and axe, I love making our salvaged wood into kindling, one day I will lose a finger or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I enjoy it too Liz, very satisfying seeing the wood piling up; a bit like baking and filling the fridge. I learned something new today too - Do you remember the rugby player Billy Beaumont? Turns out that his middle name is Blackledge.... well I never Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranberry Posted January 17, 2012 Author Share Posted January 17, 2012 I learned something else new today. My 8-yo taught me a grade 1 piano exam piece. Very challenging. It wasn't just a lesson in how to play but also in how to teach. I will definitely give more time for the brain to reach the hands from now on. I now have to practice the piece every day without getting frustrated with it. A certain person is loving it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
