You Know You’re Getting Old When……..
…..your calves feel like you’ve just finished running a marathon when all you’ve done is put up the Christmas lights.
That’s right, I put up our fake tree and Christmas lights this weekend. I didn’t even put that many lights up. There’s a long string that goes along the entire front of our house and strings going around our garage doors. I also put lights on some of our bushes. I’ll post some pictures later on.
The act of going up and down the ladder and standing on tip toes to reach the eaves because I didn’t want to go any higher on the ladder (did I mention I’m a little afraid of heights, at least on ladders) has really done me in. Damn, I’m getting old!
I feel your pain!
You’re not getting old…..you just out of ‘putting up Christmas decorations’ shape. A completely different set of muscles…..really
lol remember those jumping pics i did last month? i was sore for DAYS after that. i felt old. i’m way outta shape!
I agree with Sandy, a whole different set of muscles for that:o)
