Went to the Dr and had it checked with several X-rays. They told me I have mild arthrtis. Mild my butt! Its not constant but rather comes after I drive Nina for a bit or when I get out of bed. I have to use a cane now when I go out in case it kicks in. Thats OK cause I'm a knife nut and my canes are sword canes.

Just didnt think arthritis could hurt so freakin bad! My mom always had it and now I really feel sorry for her. No joke folks, this crap makes it so I can barely walk.

OK, I'm done being old...for now

I'll let you into a secret, it gets worse.
Stiff knees and a limp whatsit.
