Message: <blockquote data-quote="retrieverman" data-source="post: 4348834" data-attributes="member: 24452">I’m probably coming up next week to fill feeders, and I guess you could say I trained for it yesterday.  I bought some liquid fertilizer a couple years ago in 5 gallon jugs, and the 20 jugs always seem to be in the way.  I have an empty 250 gallon bulk tank, so I got the bright idea to dump the fertilizer into it.  The problem is the tank in on a stand, so I had to climb up a short ladder to reach the fill hole.  I’m in fairly decent shape for 55, but after lifting 17 jugs over my head to dump them, I was pretty well spent.  After telling myself to suck it up buttercup, I got the last three in the tank.  I really didn’t feel too bad when I went to bed, but when I got up to pee about 3, I almost couldn’t get out of bed.  On the walk to the bathroom, there were joints popping and cracking so loud I thought it would wake up my wife.  I guess I got everything limbered back up in the night, because it’s not too bad this morning.On a positive note, I should be ready to lift 36 fifty pound sacks of all stock above my head to fill my protein feeders. <img src="/images/smilies/thumb.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":thumb:" title="Thumb    :thumb:" data-shortname=":thumb:" /></blockquote>
