Dear Body,

Dear Body,

Is 27 really an appropriate age to be falling apart?

Through this life we've been relatively lucky in terms of avoiding any injuries. We've never broken a bone, never had surgery (not including wisdom teeth removal), and only been to the emergency room once for the finger.

This past month we have had two injuries that have left us hobbling around and in need of a cane. The first happened in the Dance Jam class. I guess our groove was getting a bit too feisty and I twisted my ankle. It swelled, and it hurt. It wasn't fun.

Today we were playing with all the kids on Mom's trampoline. During one of our jumps a very sharp pain went flying up our back. It's now four hours later and we are still having a hard time getting around.

Ok body, I get it, I'm old. Now will you please start working properly so I can go about my life and take care of my family and house as I have always done? Pretty please?

Thank you.

I'm 26 and I feel the same way! It's too young to start falling apart and have weird pains and body ailments!!!

It also reminds me why I hope I am always able to work out -- because that makes a lot better.
