Everyday Systems

When it came time for me to wrap my sledgehammer (an 8 pound one), I couldn't find an old sweater or sweatshirt that I wanted to retire, so I took a couple old white hand towels and folded them to the right dimensions and used black electrical tape to secure it. I think it looks pretty snazzy - black and white - like I could take it to a black tie affair.

I have decided to leave it out during the week as I'm using it every day and my 25 year old son noticed it yesterday. "What's with the towel and tape around the sledgehammer, Mom?" My husband laughed, but my son is in the Air National Guard so he's into fitness, and he just shrugged and said, "Huh," as in "sounds intriguing."

Anyway, it seems to be going well. I feel it when I am done, but only for a little while, and I have not been achey or sore at all.

Please post a picture when you get a chance!

We've had some charming shovegloves posted in the past, I think I may set up a gallery if I get a few more:

Here's a particularly fun one:
