Perspective is something we do't really think abut too much. What seems lot a lot to one person to another they will say it is trivial..
Of course, circumstances and situations determine the reason why some things are bigger to some rather than others who do not share that same situation or circumstances.
I look back at my life and wonder where did the years go?
Wow. So busy trying to constantly grow my business, improve the cost efficiencies thru various means, raising my daughters and trying to influence t hem to use theor brains and study and read a lot.. Working in the Churches and teaching Seminary students at night the Fundamentals and precepts of The Faith.
Then one day you reach that point where you cannot do all the things you once could because you no longer possess that stamina and strength.
And your children are in their late and mid forties with their own children. Some are getting ready to attend college next year and one is in college this year and playing division 2 football. The other will be playing D2 softball as the starting catcher as a freshman.. Yep, she really is that good but you would never know it to talk with her. a very modest sweet granddaughter whom Grandpa would do anything for..
SO my new companion with 4 legs and a tail and 65 pounds worth is laying by my side patiently waiting for me to get up. And my wife comes in and reminds me about tomorrow.
Its no big deal really but I know its not going to be a fun day.
Physical Therapy at the clinic and a new workout the therapist did her best to kill me with last week.
Then off to get a knee injection about a couple hours later.
For me, getting into those buildings and doing my best to walk with assistance is a struggle.
That shot last week reminded me it was there for several days. I do hope this last one will make a gel cushion for my inside of the knee.
The "therapy" session is a few hours before the shot so I have to leave after therapy and go home and later get up and go to the car and do it all over again except this time its to the Orthopedic's office.
I wish things like this did not bother me. It seems the older I get the little things ssm to bother me more than the big things.
Next year I getto go through mu right knee replacement. It will be a great addition to the bionic right hip we are trying to get healed this year right now.
My understanding is that the KNEE is a lot worse than the hip and the hip is pretty bad on its own.. The knee scares the crap out of me..
But I can hardly use it and it keeps getting worse with bone on bone and no cartilege or meniscus between the bones. Nothing but arthritis and plenty of it.
So I do not really have much choice.. Anyway, I will try to ignore the shot tomorrow and get through all the exercise things my therapist can come up with. I think she majors on new ways to cause pain in my hip each week.
Maybe she is a Physical Terrorist.
Hmmm. That has potential... A see a new plaque in the near future....
Good night from here. I am tired, exhausted, and just wanting to get over this and resume life...
