Fellas did you ever feel like you are him sometimes? Guys all of you have at one point or another ran around the house in your fruit of the looms, with a red sheet tied to your neck, flying around the house like "The Man of Steel." You could jump large buildings in one leap or stop a train with one bound. Over the last few weeks I have come to the sad conclusion that I am not him......Superman that is. A few weeks ago I burned my hand on lawn mower, then I damaged my knee playing basketball, and finally I skinned up my arm pretty bad sliding backwards down a swimming pool slide! Ten to twelve years ago I was totally convinced that I had super powers. There was nothing I couldn't do. Somewhere in between now and then I have ran into my kryptonite! Maybe its the great food that I have grown to love. Maybe its all the scraps an bruises over the years. Maybe its my old age! Its a sad statement, but my superman days are coming to an end! Tonight as I was picking shrubs out of my yard and felt the back tighten up a little as I bent down. My first thought was "Gosh I should have stretched before this." That comment was the last straw! I am here now. I have crossed to the other side. This comment is to my poor beat up body..........I have officially crossed.

Haha! I love it, you..old! Right! Just wait until you feel like you need to stretch before you sneeze, then you can feel old! :) Seriously though, I feel your pain. I still think of myself as youngish and then I do something stupid like try to show my daughter how to do a kartwheel and end up in pain for a month!
