He told me the same thing he's told most of you guys my age or older. Arthritis! I've been aching most of the winter, mostly in the morning, but I thought I'd be better when the weather warmed up. Maybe I just had a prolonged achy virus and it'll go away. Well, I was disappointed. The weather warmed up but the misery didn't go away. Been waking up at 4:00 in the morning because of the ache. Makes for a long day!! This morning was about the worst yet, I couldn't straighten out till about noon, so I broke down and made an appointment.

I told the doc I'd like to keep working for another 30 years and he just chuckled at me. I'll show him!! You just wait and see! LOL Jim
