I must be getting old!

Hi Aquariand. I have been noticing these aches and pains more since the cold weather has come in. I hate getting older. Oh well maybe I need to get in a hot tub and soak. Thanks for sharing.

Muscles work better when they are warm. It also suggests that what I said in my comment that your muscles had time to cool down and you have strained a few muscles. I had one muscle pulled in my back and that throws the whole neck back and legs out of sync because they are all related to each other. Another person suggested a massage can help and I agree with that person that suggested that. I also know if you had a previous injury and when it gets cold it can ache also.

It's colder here now and my motivation to do stuff has disappeared. I would be warmer too, if I decided to get up off my fat a*se to do something lol. My Mum also hates the winter. She still does the same amount of work in a day but - like yourself, she now has to contend with aches and pains associated with our naff climate. My cat's got the right idea..led in a ball underneath the radiator. Oh, how I wish I was a cat sometimes!

Hi MagicalBubbles. I am 58 years old. I did a lot of foolish things when I was young that is why I have these aches and pains. We just got a new mattress. But when I sleep I wake up in a ball and that could have something to do with it. But I know when it gets colder I get these aches and pains. Thank God that your dad still don't have any of these aches and pains at his age I am surprised. Thanks for sharing.

Hi MagicalBubbles. No I don't consider myself really old. I don't feel as old as I am. I have always had these aches and pains. Actually I wake up too warm most of the time. I will always be alright thanks for your concern .

Hi Freeman. Well you're not that old you know!!! Maybe its your new mattress then if you wake up in a ball or you're just ......cold? Maybe sleep with some jammies on and woollies will help. Im really happy dad doesnt have any pains. We make sure he has everything he needs to be comfy. Hope you get better soon.....even if you did a few foolish things (didnt we all? lol)

Hi Ersmommy. It is the way I treated my body when I was younger I was a dare devil. Heck I got into more trouble for doing silly things then I ever did for doing something bad. We do exercise every day today we cut a bunch of trees for fire wood for our brother. This was an all day thing. I have never drank sodas I have a kidney disease I have had all my life. So I don't drink a lot of anything that will mess up my kidneys. I am a water person I prefer water to any other drink there is. We have a real balanced diet we stick to my husband and I try not to eat fast foods and very little sweets we cook with olive oil to keep from those things that can hurt your diet. The doctor told me when I was younger I would have arthritis but I don't think that is what it is cause these aches and pains only happen once in awhile. Usually when it is pretty cold outside. I think it has a lot to do with the way I sleep. I wake up in a ball most mornings I don't know why but that is how I sleep....LOL

Hi Toniganzon. I don't get these too often. I work hard doing something everyday. I am hardly ever sitting down except early or late in the day or if it is so bad outside and we can't get out of the house at all. I sleep the same way every night always have always will I guess I wake up in a ball. Mattress is pretty new but the last one we had I couldn't sleep at all on it so we got a new one. Thanks for sharing my friend! Happy Thanksgiving!

Hi Vangie and welcome to my lot. Have heard this all my life. Have always been careful on my diet. I don't like fatty foods, sweets, soda I love vegetables and stuff that is good for you. I have only one body and if I don't take care of it no one will. But you do have a lot of good points there. Thanks for sharing my friend! Happy Thanksgiving!

Hi Barehugs. You are 77 years young. I will keep working till I pass on to the next life. We work out but it is with doing work we make things a work out. Today we cut fire wood and it really can be a good work out if you know which muscle does what. I lift with my knees not my back. We have a weight set. You are so right the older you get the harder it is to stay in shape. We keep our muscles working daily too keep us in shapen. This is just aches and pains from stupid stuff I did when I was younger. I left rocks that weight 100 to 200 lbs not evey day but when we see rocks that we can use we stop and pick them up and use them in our yard. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Nobbsy. Your still young. I have hurt myself many times in my youth and I am paying for it these days. This is something that happens to me when it starts getting colder. But I have to keep working to keep from just laying around. I used a heating pad but I can't stand the heat for too long either. It is all my fault for not taking better care of myself when I was younger. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Professor. Bet that did give you aches and pains. I couldn't do it. I have a hard time starting the push mower...LOL I never take any thing for pain unless I have had a headache for quite some time. Then I only take asprin. I am not far behind you I just turned 58. So not far behind at all. Keeps me young by keeping busy. I couldn't sit still if my life depened on it. God bless you too my friend and hope you have a great day. Thank you for sharing my friend.

Hi Penrockerchic and welcome to my lot. You are so right we all need to relax once in awhile. I have those few hours before day light and a few hours after the sun goes down to relax but not when it is nice enough to get out and do some work. I think stress does cause aches and pains. But I don't really get too stressed about anything. I know that God will handle all my problems if I try to do what I can do myself. My husband would give me a massage if I asked him too.

Hi Yanyanyow. Nope I did a lot of foolish things when I was young and got injured a lot of times so I know what the aches and pains are from. You better take heed and don't do things that will get you injured while you are young because when you get older you will feel those aches and pains too.
