Frozen peas in my pants...
This is what it has come to...frozen peas in my pants. I could NOT feel older. I went walking this morning with friends. I have been trying to walk 2 miles a day, 3 times a week. Not exactly training for a marathon here, just trying to exercise a little bit. After our 2 mile walk this morning, I noticed my hip was hurting in a way I have never felt before. I finally got home and sat down for a little bit and when I tried to get back up, well lets just say it was NOT pretty. I have never felt so old in my whole life. My daughter was here and she was laughing at me. She said it looks like I have a hip flexor pull. I googled it and sure enough, that is what I have. They said the only thing you can do is ice it down and quit doing what you were doing that caused it. Trying to put ice on your hip is not easy, but I decided that a bag of frozen peas in my pants might just do the trickand it did. I guess I will have to put off my walking for awhile, which really bums me out. I have really enjoyed it. On the upside today, I went to get my eyes checked and got a new more stylish pair of glasses. The Dr. told me the reason I am not seeing very well is that my glasses are too strong for me. I couldn't believe it. I have something on my body that is actually improving with age. Who knew???? I guess if the worst thing that has happened to me is a pulled hip flexor, I guess I should consider myself lucky. Some people might not like the frozen peas in their pants, but I say, what the heck, it feels kinda good. Have a good weekend everybody!
