The latest symptom of mortality. I have arthritis. Hallux rigidus, to be exact. It has kept me from running for a few months and quite possibly will continue to do so forever. There are treatments so I guess we'll see. And the fact is that as long as I don't overdo it and can deal with pain, I should be able to resume some running, at least a few miles. To quote the great philosopher Dalton, "Pain don't hurt."
Also under the heading Getting Old, below there is a write up on The Villages based on a recent retirement investigation visit. I'm beginning to realize that the reason old people always talk about how old they are is because that's what dominates your life after a certain point.
I shall resist the urge to wallow in my agedness with all my might so...Happy New Year(?)
