I have been totally caught off guard by the aging thing. I thought it was supposed to happen in your….50s? 60s? Not getting white hairs in my 30s! So yes, I hear you on this one.

So in other words, I am fucked.
My back is clicking in at 90 years old.
I’ve already had more surgeries than my 83 year old grandpa had ever had.
Sigh.
Ps. I think the tech thing is totally par for the course. It’s inevitable 😉

I once cut myself trimming my nose hair . . . so far, that’s been the most-embarrassing injury directly related to growing older (see, the older I get, the less hair grows on my head, but thanks to Newton’s Law of Conservation of Hair, it grows everywhere else on my body).

I don’t know if the fact that I’ve injured my shoulder taking off my shirt is better or worse than you doing the same, taking off as sports bra.

My favorite malady for sure is the popping elbow caused by….sleeping.

Hazardous behavior, indeed.

But the truth: At any age, you are hilarious, thoughtful and lovely. And for the record, you’re still awesomely young. At heart, mind and body.

(Is it time to WHOOP now? I just have to be careful because of the bursitis…And also no. At 43, my body hasn’t changed at all. ;-))

I’m whooping it up! I’m whooping it up! (For your birthday – not for all that aging stuff). You look great in that pic!

At least I can say I have pulled a muscle having S.E.X. That’s hot not old, right? Right? Hello?

Yeah, I twisted my knee bending over to pick up some laundry. It seems like every day I have some sort of ache or pain. Aging sucks, although this should be motivation for me to get back in shape — so my body will last longer.

As someone who is already over the proverbial hill, I will say: it’s all true. The warranty runs out. Things begin to fail. You metabolism changes. Your skin sags. Your eyes squint. The end of the world.

Or maybe that’s me being overly dramatic again.

Truly, aging is a privilege not bestowed upon everyone. Enjoy!

Just wait. For your 50th birthday, you get an invitation to join from the AARP. Now THAT was painful!

In reply to Kate F. @katefineske. Do you do the post-criss-cross walk? It takes me a few steps to be fully upright again. So embarrassing!
