I do remember a few years back I saw my elbow in the mirror while cleaning it and I thought OH Lord what has happen to me I have my mother's old elbow -LOL
I just started riding moutain bikes with my son and DIL - had never been on one and hadn't been a reg. bike in a few years. It's a blast. At first I said oh no I am not going to ride I might break an old bone-then I said what the heck , I could stumb my big toe tomorrow and break my neck-give me a bike!
My dad always said that you were supposed to count up until you are 42, then start counting backwards. That way you can retire when you are 21 and still know everything! By that figuring, I am 32! That's my story and I'm sticking to it!
