Right now I'm a little down about the way my body is falling apart and my attitude shows it. LOL
When we age to the point where the body starts hurting in half a dozen places we tend to lose our enthusiasm for working those long hours. We are cautious about moving in certain ways because it might hurt. I used to work seven days a week here on the farm, getting out the door at 7 and staying active on into the late hours. I used to walk nine holes of golf at the end of the day if the hay baling finished up early enough. That doesn't happen anymore.
The other day I stood in the shop working on a tractor till 9 in the evening and later in the night, more towards morning my hips got to hurting laying in bed, so I got up early. Was doggy the whole next day. That stuff dampens the enthusiasm a bit.
Today a neurologist told me I'll basically have to live with the buzzing in the right arm and hand and the pin pricks in my feet caused by scar tissue rubbing on a frayed nerve in my neck. To top it off he pointed out in the xray all the arthritis between the vertebrae.The enthusiasm to get going went down even farther! Well, gotta get back outside to get something done-sitting on the riding mower. LOL
