Well, dads—it’s official, I’m old. Strained my back lifting the glass table top on Saturday. Finally had to go to urgent care today because the pain is so bad. No activity or “activity” for at least 7 days.

When did I get this old?

    Sitting here with some wonderful lower back pain right now, so I commiserate. And my kid only just turned 13. I shouldn’t be a collection of aches and pains!

    Random injuries are are he name of the game after like 35yo.

    Tweaked my knee so bad back in January that I couldn’t sleep it hurt so bad. Ended up in physical therapy for months. Cause of injury? Literally just going up the stairs.

    Today, lifting logs and splitting firewood, for hours. No big deal.

    Happens to the best of us.

    Hope you feel better.
