I am officially an old lady!! Here's proof: I have "hip" problems!! That's right people--HIP problems!!!
This Sunday, I sang with the primary kids for two hours (as usual), and then as I'm walking to the chapel for Sacrament Meeting, I get this awful pain in my HIP. I sit down and it just gets worse and worse. Pretty soon it gets so bad that I can't even sit and concentrate. As I get up to leave, I have to limp!! After that, I could barely get into the car (I had to use my hands to literally pick up my leg and lift it into the car)!! We got home and I was sure I could stretch my hip and "pop" it back into place. Well, the harder I tried the more it hurt. A couple times I found myself stuck on the floor crying unable to get up. I was sure my hip was dislocated (and from what?? I had don't NOTHING to it).
Well after A LOT of Internet research by my nerdy (yet very helpful) husband, we decided it wasn't dislocated and I would have to wait until Monday to see a doctor (why is it that things like this always happen at night or on the weekend?).
Well today is Tuesday and my hip is doing a lot better. I went to the Doctor yesterday and he took some x-rays but is pretty convinced that it is just inflammation of some pretty deep muscles in my hip. So I am on some anti-inflammatory medicine and 7-10 days of rest. If it doesn't get better by then he will send me to a specialist.
So there you have it. I am 33 and already have hip issues.

I noticed you limping out. Hope you feel better. And come on now, I am 27 and have already thrown out my back...climbing over a couch! And you have had three kids which warrants some hip problems!
Left or right? My left is giving me some troubles, nothing as big as yours, but...
We aren't that old!!!
I can NOT sit on the hard floor anymore, or I pay for it.
What happened to us!
Hope it heals quick:)
