Last summer, I decided to go on a fitness kick and start bike riding (which I had enjoyed about a decade ago). So, I bring it up from the basement, get it all tuned up, air in the tires, pack all my db suplies in the little handlebar bag…I was ready to hop on and my leg would not swing up and over like it used to. Tried again, same deal. Hmmmmmm…some old age stiffness seemed to have set in. Then I tried to lift it over with my arms. A couple of people walked by and laughed…Yes, I finally got on it, but by then was very tired.
I had something similar happen to me. While getting into the passenger side of the car. I found that I could not lift my right leg to get it into the car. Hmmm… I thought. Tried again… nope. Grabbed my pantleg and lifted…
i may not be old… but i’m always saying “OOOH!!! Guess what?!?” and then immediately, i can’t remember what i was thinking. or, yesterday… i walked down the stairs to get something. as soon as i reached the bottom of the stairs, i headed back up the stairs. when i was halfway up the stairs… i was like “wait! didn’t i go down to get something?!?” lol. i have an excuse though, i was on the phone. oh well.
