I went shopping today and just carrying the bags gave a minor backache. I had to rest and lie down for awhile. I think that I will have do some kind of exercise pr strength training because I would hate to be an invalid before my time.
I bought myself two new purses mainly because I'm tired of my old ones. They are both fabric purses and therefore lighter than my leather purses. I am going to try to lighten the load that I carry back and forth to work. I also carry a backpack as well as my purse and I think that has had a deleterious effect on my back. Sometimes it hurts to keep myself upright but I keep making the effort because I see some women my age who are starting to get a hump in their back.
