What's making you feel old today?

I had to look up tens unit. Is there any down side?

Not that I can really think of. The pads are usually cold once you put them on your skin. After a while they warm up. It does take a while to get used to having your muscles artificially stimulated but this is the same treatment you’d get if you went to a physiotherapist . They use these on their patients to help them. Starting off at a low setting is highly suggested and work your way up. It does feel a bit uncomfortable until you get used to it. I use mine for hours when I have pain and when I’m finished I feel much better.

My life. Loss of my power. Fear I am losing fight for dignity. Fear I must surrender

What's making me feel old, today?
After doing yard work, what makes me feel old is my body. There are actually some parts that don't ache

The other day I found a clip on YouTube of a 1989 Who concert that I attended with friends. Later that summer, my best friend and I went to the original Woodstock site, 'way before the Bethel Woods Center for the Arts was built on the site, and chipped off a small piece of the original concrete stage supports.

Earlier that same year I'd gone to Daytona Beach for spring break and wore a bikini. (That ship has sailed, I'm afraid.)

I feel like I'm so old and boring now. I feel trapped in a state that I don't like, and frustrated.
