The Timing Isn't Right, It's Too Soon.

That's right, the timing is too soon. I started having those nasty painful episodes with the joints in my fingers and I'm regretfully thinking it might be the beginning of the A word. I don't think 54 is old enough for that. Maybe 64 or so is more age appropriate but the other thing is that at work I use my hands an awful lots and to some degree there is repetition in most of the movements I need to do. I find myself looking at the pill aisle and looking for the phrase "arthritis pain relief" on the package and then picking something else out of denial I guess. There are other factors I think have contributed to my joint pain and also my loss of good flexibility and that's my weight. I don't even want to know what my BMI is. I think that would probably depress me too much and make me revert to doing less activity besides work. I have to see the doctor about my constant congestion and I'll add the joint pain in instead of doing it in two pricey appointments!
