Ya know what scares me? I'm UNDER 40 ::::::big smile:::::::: and I feel like there are day's that my body is just falling apart...... (If) this is happening now how the heck am I gonna feel in 10 years?!?!?
Yes, I have a couple of bad habits..... (don't we all?) but I also *try* to be concious about my health.....
For the past week or so I have been unable to turn my neck all the way to the left.... and I keep getting these intense "flashes" of pain..... I can't do "simple"/"normal" things like yawn without it almost putting me in tears from the pain....
I'm pretty sure it's some kind of pulled muscle, and I can tell you the exact moment it happened...... for some reason I woke up in the middle of the night and was turning my head on the pillow and felt a "snap" in my neck...... I remember thinking CRAP that's gonna hurt (then I went back to sleep) The next morning I couldn't turn my neck and the pain began.....
Hubby (being the gentle soul he is) has tried to get me to go to a chiropractor and I absolutely refuse...... (Sorry I hate em and I think their quacks) The thought of someone "manipulating my neck or back is enough for me to pull out the shotgun.....
I think I'll wait this one out for another week or two and if it doesn't get better, give my doc a call and end up spending another 2K trying to figure this one out.......
As I am blogging this I started thinking to myself just how unfair it is getting older....... While we're young..............we're too stupid to REALLY understand life...... and once we start aging and gaining perspective our bodies break down on us......
Kind of bizarre isn't it? Our mind expands while our body breaks........
It also just hit me how selfish I am being (and) how selfish the above thought is....... I'm quite sure any little one (child) who is suffering through a disease or terminal illness would be more than happy to go through this process of aging........
I think my mind just expanded a little bit and somehow this pain just doesn't seem significant anymore..........
Carpe diem
