we would pack up CAL and go to the sledding hill. WB went tubing with us one year. It was so much fun. The best mode of transportation is the tube by far. Those things fly down the hill faster than the other types of sleds.
After a year or so our town decided to put in snow making equipment. I was so awesome and that encouraged us to go more often. I would get CAL up first thing in the morning and we would head out tubing. The hill was usually so packed by 10 o'clock that it was no longer fun.
I think it was 2001 when I took my last trip to the hill. The kids had built several ramps to accommodate the snowboards and to make sledding more fun. Now, as adults we know that sleds and ramps should never be in the same sentence. I was sitting up on the tube with CAL sitting on my lap. My husband gave me a nice push and I was flying down that hill. Half way down I realized that we were heading for a ramp and I could not avoid it. I wrapped both arms around CAL and braced myself. We went up the ramp and the tube came out from under me and down I came (in a sitting up position) on my bottom. I honestly thought I broke my back. I could not move. I laid on the hill for a few minutes trying to catch my breath and also wondering if I was going to have to be carried off on a stretcher. I was finally able to crawl off the hill. I mean that literally. I crawled on all fours.
Ever since that time I have had back problems. The next two years were the worst. There were times when any position, sitting, lying, you name it would bring tears to my eyes. It has improved since 2001 but I don't think I will ever be 100% again.
As everyone knows, when you have back issues, there is not much that can be done. I tried every creme known to man. Now there might be hope. Freeze It Gel is suppose to help me with my back and muscle pain. If I were to win a supply of freeze it that would also help with the pain in my wallet.
If you have been reading my blog for long you know that I have a ton of aliments. I am getting old and falling apart. I think I have the onset of arthritis (I should try Freeze it) in my pinkie fingers. My mom suffers from the same aliment. I also have these "attacks" and cause me to have severe back pain in the middle of my back. That seems to be an unusual spot for the back to hurt. Usually it is your lower back that suffers. The muscles in my back become very sore. According to their commercial Freeze It will help me with all of those issues.
So let's recap.... Freeze It Gel will help me with my sore back muscles, arthritis, my "attacks", and the neck and shoulder pain that comes with all the stress that I am under.
What aches and pains do you have that Freeze It Gel could help you with? Come on you know you are getting old and those aliments seem to be coming out of the woodwork. If you were active or involved in sports when you were younger you are now paying the price.
