So, is it just me or does your body just start falling apart once you turn 30? I
can't believe how much I've been getting injured lately. So, last fall I hurt my leg running (a tendon in my quad) and now I've hurt my knee (I think it's runner's knee). I'm pretty sure I did it running and now it's even
aggravated when I cycle. I'm so frustrated! Remember the days when you could eat anything you wanted, exercise as much or as little as you wanted and you were still healthy as a horse? Wow - how I miss those days. And, doesn't it just go downhill from here? Every year you age, you have to eat less and your body starts giving out. Not looking forward to it!
Yes, I said "first" stitches. I know our lives will be filled with many more accidents - partially based on Kaia's no fear personality, and partially based on the fact her parents also have a history of stitches. Brian and I say to each other every night, "Wow, she was a real handful tonight." Okay, we probably don't say it that politely, but you get the drift. She's a wild one! She fell and hit her head on the couch at the babysitters house. It was actually a padded leather couch, but she hit the base just hard enough to split open the skin. I'm really not sure who was more traumatized by the stitches - Kaia or me. She screamed bloody murder and I almost fainted when they started with the needle and thread. It was quite the ordeal, but I guess we're officially parents now that we've made a claim on our accident insurance. After the whole thing was over she was happy to chat with the doctor about how her lamb had an owie too (she bled on it) and we went for ice cream. It was quite a day!
