    Just had to let you know this made me laugh out loud. Well done.

    Don’t worry, when you get older, you won’t sleep as well, and you’ll be more aware of getting the injuries. Just call me Job’s comforter.

    That made me laugh, even though I’m not very near middle-age, at 21. Still, I can appreciate the sentiment since I woke up this morning with mysterious back and leg pain. How DOES that happen?

    Does that mean I’ve hit middle-age at 24?! Yikes!

    Oh man so now I think I am middle aged! Like several of us by the look of it…

    Been there. Will probably be there more often as the days, weeks, months, years, decades pass. It only gets really bad when you cannot walk, see, or you have bled. Seriously though, sleep time injuries bite. (My Dad often complains he gets kicked by my Mom while she sleeps…lol). Good luck!

    Hey, you have been reading my mind!! I did that last year with my shoulder, well the year before, but was still trying to cope with it last year. Now, everything is just falling apart and I still have at least 18 months before the 40. I have been seriously wondering about it.

    That’s not as funny to me today as it would have been 10 years ago LOL!

    That is just too funny and too true! Last week, I woke up with a deep pain on my chest. I’m like “Am I having a heart attack?!!” I calmed myself down and realized it was muscle I pulled in my sleep. Man did it hurt! It hurt to breath.
