Ok, I know that I am getting older - the grey hair, aching joints and forgetfulness won't let me forget it! Yesterday I was reminded again that I am not 25, 35 or even 45.
We went to church with a couple from MCC that are here for 2 weeks and they brought us back to our apartment in their Landrover. Some of you know what those are like to get in and out of. These are the older ones that have the bench seats in the back and no step to help you get in the back. Well, I got in(kind of crawled) ok but getting out proved to be entertaining for everyone on the street! The guard was helping me out by offering me his hand to balance with as I jumped out. As my left foot hit the ground my knee did not like that and the leg collapsed under me causing me to swing around in a circle still holding onto the guards hand and almost puling him down with me as I ended up sitting on the street! The poor guard felt so bad but everyone else on the street got a good laugh out of it and Lynn said I did not stick my landing so points were deducted from my score. Maybe I need to start carrying a step stool with me:)
On top of that our elevator is not working in the building so we are having to walk up the steps to the 4th floor and man did my knee not like that!! Even with all of that we still really like our new place:)
