For one of the few times in my life I actually feel older than my age. Normally I feel about 10 or 20 years younger than my chronological age. I had forgotten the times (after knee surgery and before my last hip surgery) that I felt older than my years. I've got no control over some of it. The arthritis happens with or without my involvement. But I'm not used to that kind of unrelenting pain having been a very fortunate healer throughout my life so I've been letting the pain reduce me.
Not playing pickleball has been part of the problem. Not playing at all at anything is the rest of it.
This will all be fixed when I get the hip pain under control but that is a month away still and I'm not happy with deteriorating for a month. I wish I could play pickleball. That is really what I need to do but the people I play with would expect two hours of effort from me and I suspect I've got maybe half an hour in me.
It doesn't help that it is over 80 degrees outside at 8 in the morning.
This morning I picked up some stretching videos online and they have helped a lot. I'll keep pursuing that and maybe do a couple of laps around the neighborhood on my trail bike.
Meanwhile I've got Nadal to watch play at the French Open.
And also meanwhile, Ethereum is going up. My current value is $210. My actual value (after subtracting the transfer costs) is actually the same. PayPal says my net gain is 0%. It is interesting, though that there is a run up so far today.
