Softball season has begun!!! I absolutely LOVE playing ball, but I've come to realize something....I'm old!!! I may not look my age, but man, my body (specifically my knees) knows the truth!!! I feel like it just hit me like a ton of bricks, but there have been warning signs....such as....
You know you're getting old when....
you're noticing you are getting closer to the top of the age bracket of the team, and FARTHER from the younger crowd....
you're asked to help coach (that should have been my true wake up call...lol!!!)
you actually say out loud..."boy, that run from 1st to 3rd sure was a lot easier in my 20's"....ugh....
about 5 minutes after the game is over, you're having a hard time walking....
you pop 4 Advil as soon as you get home so that you can make it up the stairs.....
after every game, you seriously start thinking about drinking joint juice...hopefully it would help your aching knees....
My goal is to one day play with Meghan out there...that's only 12 more years....lol!!! I can do it!!! I think I can, I think I can, I think I can.....
(the pic above is of course the BEST 2nd basemen, now 3rd baseman Placido Polanco....LOVE Polly!!!)
