Why does working in the cold take it out of you so bad?
Did afternoon chores and found the cattle had messed around behind the shed. I spend an hour or so moving portable panels and cleaning up the area. When I was done with that and had moved stock tanks I was so pooped I could hardly stand. Is it the 20 pounds of extra clothes, the slop I was working in, or the cold weather? Having 15 pounds of mud on each boot can't help.
Anyone else feel 20 years older in the winter? I'm not talking about aches and pains. That's different. I'm having a knee fixed the day after Christmas, so maybe that will help.
