It slows our metabolism (how fast our body burns energy), puts more pressure on our joints, hurts our posture, throws off our balance, and limits our mobility. The bad news is, it gets worse. We walk slower and become dependent on others to do things. Physical limitations...
It seems that spring is here, but I believe there will be one more if not two cool spells before we really can relax and feel like spring. It is still cool at night sometimes, but the days have been warm most of the days.
