It's official!






I am officially old and I admit it and own it. Last night during sleep, I got a cramp in my leg...not unusual...happens all the time. I always hop out of bed quickly and start trying to relieve the pain and anguish. Last night as I started to hop out of bed, I fell and hit my head on the solid wood nightstand...also got scraped up on both arms. I couldn't dwell on that because I still had the cramp to cope with, but it was constantly in the back of my head about that actress who fell on the bunny slope and hit her head. As soon as I could, I put an ice pack on it and watched to make sure it was making a knot on the outside of my head instead of the inside. ( I learned that on TV after that woman fell). Today, I am pretty sore and have a sore head, but not a headache. Old age sucks!

Ouch!

Take care of yourself. Those leg craps are like red hot knife in the muscle.

Thanks, Hammer. I guess that was payback for running the tiller in the garden yesterday.

I was riding in a small car the other day. For some reason, I was sitting in a way that made my left leg go to sleep. I looked like a drunk when I stepped from the car.

The physical part of getting old is tough, but the mental part is becoming fun. I guess you finally get to the point you really don't care, say what you want and do what you like to do.

I really have to pay attention and avoid digging in my ear with my car key. ;)

yeah, the reason they call it the golden years is because it takes a lot of gold for the quacks!

My Daddy told me about 20 years ago that old age twern't fer sissies...he was right
