I know getting old is better that the alternative.... ;) ;)

Seem like the older I get the more I revert back to my youth in unavoidable actions.... :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

No I still have control over that... :D :D

But when I was young I had trouble sleeping... Now I have trouble sleeping and another problem from my young life...

Since July 4th my wife and I have had to pick me up off the floor from between my bed and an old antique dresser... Only bad thing is that is where my portable oxygen tanks have resided for the past several months... The 1st time I kind of got a few scratches and bruises on my left side and arm... 2nd time was a bit more and on my right side and I also broke her antique dresser... I look like I\'ve been in a street fight with a gorilla... Bruises all over my body even the tip of my toes have bruises.... :lol: :lol:

But all is well... No broken bones, just bent pride... :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

The wife and kids decided it was time to treat me like a baby again... So even though they didn\'t put me in a crib I now have a fancy set of side rails on my adult bed.... How embarassing... :oops: :oops:

But I\'m learning to put up with them and haven\'t hit the floor sideways lately... :haha: :haha:
 
You were probably dreaming about hunting or something :)

Youre sure the wifey didnt push you right?
 
I see opportunity with this, Phil......
Did you ever read about that \"study\" that says that if you include more bacon and steak in your daily meals, you decrease falling out of bed by 75%. ;)

Make sure you let your family know :D :lol:
 
Hang in there Phil. Use it as motivation to keep hitting that bike harder and harder. Fight through it and see if you can get to a point where you don\'t need that bed rail anymore ;)

I hope it wasn\'t a dream of me falling out of my deer stand... :lol: :lol: The wife would have to have long legs since she sleeps in a different room and has since I had my heart attack... :downthumb: :downthumb:

sorry to hear bout all the issues phil. getting older isnt for sissies, thats for sure. and whoever said it was the golden years was a moron. hang in there bud.
 
Dang. Falling out of bed is no joke. Maybe wear your safety harness? :)

Seriously. What about padding and push the bed to the wall.

We thought out all the options and they decide the side rail route would be the way to go... So far it\'s working but I haven\'t woke up touching the rails yet... :upthumb: :upthumb:
