You have my sympathy. Didn't go to the gym today, either.
I got up, went to Lowes, and bought materials. 3 10 ft 4x4s, 2 10 ft 2x4s, 24 6 ft 1x6s, 1 10 ft 1x4, 2 60lb sacks of concrete, miscellaneous other items like screws, nails, etc. Loaded them into a truck (I admit; the loader dude there helped with the loading). Drove truck home, and unloaded all of the above by myself, lugging it 35 yards or so to the work area. Returned truck. Dug 3 holes (some assistance there from my dad; I had one done before he arrived, he dug about half of the others) by hand (power lines too close to use an auger). Planted 3 posts, attached 2 stringers, and got about 1/3 of the 1x6s hung on the stringers. Yeah -- I'm sore, too! (Tomorrow is for finishing the fence, and cutting down the old scrap so that it'll be collected by the trash folks.)
Oh -- last night was tearing out the old fence by hand, and removing a crap load of nails & staples from those boards. Including yanking out the 2 old posts...
