You get Tendinitis when you are in your 20's and you have to type with one hand and have problems doing everything that you need to do being a mom and have to wear this:
And this, because you had a dumb boyfriend once who had you on piggy back and ran fast through a doorway, your knee connected with the frame. You have to wear this to Disneyland and to walk for long distances:
When you are always saying, " I can't do that because it will hurt my back", " I can't open this, can you?" Yada Yada.
I mean really, what happened to things just rolling off of you when you are young. I swear I am young, but not when this stuff stops me from doing things. It is so frustrating.
Brett and I laugh sometimes because he has to wear braces on his shins because he gets shins splints and can't run or play the sports that he wants to play, let alone his favorite snow boarding. He has wrist problems because of a aliment that he has (that is a whole nother story) and elbow problems and major back issues, he sleeps with a heating pad on his back every night. There has not been a night in our marriage when he hasn't iced his wrists and back, even Gwenie knows how to get a ziplock bag out and fill it with ice for Brett. (Really funny the first time she did it, this girl misses nothing)
You just have to laugh and tell yourself that you are not young anymore. Sad but true.
