Prepping the swamp cooler for summer. Unlike last year, the calcium scraped

Changed one cooling pad and it wore me out. I'll have to do the others in
two steps - remove one day, put in new one the next. sigh Wasn't that
long ago I did all three quickly in one session. Soon fiddle with water
lines to pads. That's always a lot of fun, removing and cleaning out these
that are plugged up.

My good friend is 79 years old and was in great shape until 2 weeks
ago (5 years ago he was still carrying around, erecting, and climbing
a 20 foot fiberglass extension ladeer.) His father lived to 93, his
mother almost 100, wore high heels until she was 93.

My MIL is 90, and she's just now starting to slow down a bit.

But in the snow he stopped to help someone push his car out. Hurt his
shoulder, but still went to work for two days. Pain bad, doctor said
rotator cuff damaged. Physical therapy did something and now his neck

A few years ago I had pain in my right rotator cuff, and it seemed like
it would never stop hurting. But, luckily, after about 2 years of
babying it, it finally healed up and doesn't hurt any more.

and back hurts. Saw him today, after the chiropractor, he could
barely walk, drooling from some pain medicine.

I've hurt my back several times and chiropractors did their thing for
me. The last time I picked up a laundry basket that turned out to be
heavier than I expected it to be and felt something in my low back
object. It hurt so badly that I thought I had done something really
serious to it because I could barely walk. I ended up in the
chiropractors office every day for a week, and he adjusted my back each
day and had me walking comfortably after the 2nd adjustment. I was able
to get on a plane at the end of the week to go to my daughters wedding

Glad you made the weddding. My friend has international airplane
tickets for next month. He has travel insurance though.

out of town, but I had strict orders that I wasn't allowed to life
anything and to see him again when I got back to finish up the
treatments. After that incident, I'm really careful about lifting stuff.

Good luck.


Thanks, Micky. Hope you're doing well these days.
