Pic of the week
I’m getting old.
Somehow, on Monday I managed to pull a muscle whilst sat on a sofa. I was sat done and just moved slightly and felt a real twinge in my left rib cage and it has hurt all week – particularly on the couple of occassions that I have sneezed. Hurting yourself whilst exercising is one thing, but hurting yourself whilst sitting down is another, a depressing sign of my ageing body I fear.
And today, I enjoyed a long snooze of about an hour this afternoon, another sign of getting old.
This post is partly tongue in cheek – I’m not as young as I was, but I was able to keep up with the 18 year olds I refereed yesterday, and today I ran 10K in sub 50 minutes, so I’m not doing too bad.
The pic above is the tree outside my window, its turned a beautiful colour. The trees are all turning now – I need to enjoy them whilst I can as they will soon be leafless and skeletal as autumn rolls on and into winter. One week of term to go, looking forward to the deserved break, but this half term does seem to have passed quickly.
