Too Young to be Old

There is a running joke in Jesse's family that when you hit 22 years old, your body falls apart. I can easily argue I began to fall apart a good twenty years before him, but suddenly, at the ripe age of almost 26, I find my aches and pains have increased.

With little motion in my left arm and throbbing left limbs, I decided it was time to finally get it checked out.

It's probably a good thing I went to the chiropractor because it turns out, I really am falling apart!  Well not quite, but almost.  I have tendinitis in my left rotatorcuff and a pinched nerve in my neck causing numbness and pain in my left side.  Imagine that!  So here I sit, propping my left arm up on the desk so it doesn't go numb.

After adjusting me, the doctor suggested I go home and rest since I'd be no good at work today.  I chuckled and explained that the only way I get through my normal back pain is to work through it--to distract myself from the pain.  Thankfully he understood and gave me the go ahead to return to work, but to take it easy. TAKING IT EASY, HERE I COME. :)  Does this mean I can just go lay by the pool every day???
