Title: Getting old and Tired
Post by: slimjim on February 17, 2014, 04:25:28 PM
Getting old and tired is when your knees don't want to bend, your eyesight and hearing is getting bad and your memory really starts to fail, I forgot what I wanted to start a thread on because I couldn't find the Icon to start a thread until Crow explained how to start a thread and then, oh well were going around in circles, getting old sucks, if you have messaged me and I have not responded you know why, keep trying!

Ah Ha! Actually I did send you a message last week. Now I know why you didn't respond. That and you were likely busy.

Must be why Marty used the Tommy Chong reference. HA. That's my excuse anyway.

Merrielroofing, Thanks and I did just respond to you via PM, do me a favor and convince Marty to become a dealer for us, he needs something to do and I sure would love to have him fully on board.

I think he should be a full dealer as well.  He is smarter than any of the dealers I have talked to. I might even buy his 1st stove if he hurries up. Hint hint.

Chiropractic adjustments every two weeks for the last 8yrs. No aches in my body yet, unlike the guys I work with have constant body aches all the time.

I just seen the chropactor for my first time yesterday. BOY did that feel amazing until today, sore as heck. I guess abusing my body playing school sports then riding dirtbike and atv's every weekend is taking its toll. And Im only 30!! I won't quite riding until I cant walk no more. It makes me happy and is my alone time.

Used to do that as well, Ran Hare Scrambles and Enduros, was fun when I was doing it but have a bum shoulder and knee from it now, wish I had quite a little sooner.

No chiropractor at all here, ws thinking about it but dropped mucho dinero on a sleep number bed last year instead and no thoughts of going to the bone cruncher now.

We bought the sleep number awhile back, my wife loves it, i would rather sleep on the floor. They say it takes up to six months to find "your" spot.

We bought the sleep number awhile back, my wife loves it, i would rather sleep on the floor. They say it takes up to six months to find "your" spot.

It does, wife loved it from the start. She was having trouble staying a sleep at night. Was getting bad enough that it was causing nightmares, doctor suggested was from a lack of sleep as we though maybe the thyroid replacement they started her on might be causing it. Was tossing and turning enough at night she almost gave me a black eye.

Took me longer to find my number, what I found is you have a number you normally sleep with then another number you have if you over did it and are especially sore before going to bed.

We spent three weeks in the UK visiting the wife's aunt's, uncle and cousins. I felt like I was 80 by time we got home. Three weeks of sleeping in strange beds, four and a half hours each in a car driving to Normandy and back, then some other traveling will about do anybody in. The 8 1/2 hour flight home was about the final nail in the coffin, back was absolutely killing me. Three nights on the sleep number and my back felt fine.

Not sure if it's the sleep number or the thyroid medicine, but the wife spends less time sleeping now. Most likely a combination of both, as she did sleep more while on vacation but it also takes almost two weeks for her to get over the jet lag, which she gets both ways.

Spend a little more and get the pillow top or memory foam with cool gel.
