I was sore from bowling!

Posted By: ERMT on 2007-11-06
In Reply to: Wii - MTinIL

After playing it all night when we first got it, I woke up this next morning and my right shoulder was killing me! I mean, I lift weights regularly, and I don't even get as sore from that! I also love the tennis one, and I take the Wii Fitness test almost every day! I am getting Mario Galaxy and the Mario Olympic games next week, and I can't wait! I also have to recommend the Rayman Ravid Rabbids game as that has to be the FUNNIEST game I have ever seen! Shooting toilet plungers at crazy screaming bunnies! LOL!

Bowling League
Isn't there another league that you can join where you can meet people that are nicer where you can have fun. I bowl Thursday nights and I love it. Most of the people are very friendly and we have a great time. I would never subject myself to these rude people. You want to have fun and not be afraid to go bowling for fear of not enjoying yourself.
My sis has a Wii and the bowling game is great....
you get some exercise, can have a drink or so while playing, and don't have to smell like cigarettes when you get home. Or spend any money on shoes etc. LOL.
Free bowling for kids this summer - sm

I just got told about this yesterday, it's a summer program thru Aug. 31 for kids to bowl for free, 2 games a day until 5pm, for the whole summer, just have to pay shoe rental.  I signed us up for it, have a nice place here about 30 mins from us on the list of participating bowling alleys, and we are set. They also have a family plan that is $23.95, and up to 4 adults can bowl too w/o incuring any additional fees except for shoes again.  Last time we went it was $100 for 4 people, 2 games, shoes, a pizza and a pitcher of soda.  So this is a steal.  Just thought I'd put the word out.  I plan on buying us all shoes so we can save on rental, and will break even on those in 2-5 visits/person depending on what I spend.  Our place charges $5/person/game and $4.50 for shoe rental, so one outing for us (4) with no food, 2 games, $58, so we go rarely.  Just thought I'd pass this on!

A few years back I tried joining a ladies bowling league sm

on Tues. mornings. Worked out perfect since I'm off Tuesdays. Here's the dilemma. Most of the women (90%) were so rude to me. No matter how friendly and nice I was to them (which I am very outgoing) it just did not matter.


I'm thinking of joining it again. How does one put up with bad attitudes in this situation? Don't I have the same right as they do?? I mean, just because I'm young doesn't mean I can't be there. The bowling alley was the one who put me on the stupi*d league in the first place! I should add that my average at the time was 160 (I've been on leagues since I was 8 years old) and I am an above-average bowler. Now my average is even higher. I was constantly winning small pots due to high game (200s or more).


Why am I so afraid of going back? There were at least 75 women in the league. Most of them retired. Why do older women like that have bad attitudes? Is it the environment? Jelaousy? You'd think after all those years they'd be over that. There are no men around, so it can't be jealousy. I'm so upset and annoyed and I haven't even signed up yet! UGH!

It doesn't look sore, red or anything. Just
xx
Also about the teeth being sore...
Our orthodontists both told us that if OTC meds do not help your pain, they are too tight and you should call for a 2nd adjustment. Your teeth should not be so sore that you can't eat a regular diet. Who knows, yours might have a different policy or idea, but don't suffer through the pain without asking. I did and they finally told me that I shouldn't be and they don't know that unless the patient tells them.
A sore loser? I saw it and I think she was truly shocked.

I had wondered if it was bec his joints are sore (sm)
That is interesting. He does seem arthritic these days but I thought it was just from him being so old. I had wondered if he was chewing his paw (the top of his paw, not the pad) because his joints hurt. I feel so bad for our poor pets who can't tell us what is wrong. I guess he will have to go to the vet (whether he likes it or not!)LOL
Ditto, I would think anyone with a cold sore - sm
would know not to kiss anyone, especially a newborn. Obviously the mother was not thinking, it was her baby, etc., unless she did not know she had it, and/or that it was herpes as all cold sores are and very contagious and spread by kissing, contact, etc. It is very sad the nursing staff did not say something to her prior, during, after the birth as this all could have been easily prevented.
Sore throat suggestions
I have chronic sinus problems and postnasal drip. Some suggestions I have are to use a cool mist humidifier at night, use saline nasal sprays (like Ayr or Ocean) at least twice a day, gargle with warm salt water (as far back into your throat as you can), and I make a drink with a cup of hot water, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon of honey. I also drink chicken broth or eat chicken noodle soup. That might be placebo, but I always feel better after warm chicken broth.
I have had a sore throat now for 2 days..sm
It feels like it may be starting to get better though. My husband had the same thing last week. My nose has ran a little too. I don't know. Must be a cold or something.
Well this isn't your everyday sore throat (sm)
It feels like severe strep, only it's neg for strep and it has been going on about 4 days now and shows no signs of getting any better. Nothing I am doing to try to treat it seems to help. I am now on zithromax, magic mouthways, chloraseptic, saltwater gargles, honey, cough drops, vitamin C and naprosyn, and still waking up through the night with my throat hurting :(
For sore neck & shoulders I swear by - sm
Flexall Extra-Strength. (Used to be 'Flexall 454'). Has a menthol/linament kind of smell (which I like), but who cares - it works like a charm for me on those tight, stressed-out muscles. Not only when working, but when going to bed at night, too. Cat hates it, but too bad. I LOVE it.

Also helpful was buying an adjustable, keyboard try that attaches under the desk. By typing with the keyboard basically in my lap, it opens the angles of my elbows (pain in those is from bone spurs, when elbow is flexed to 90 degrees or more). Also, having the keyboard low, with very nice soft, cushy wrist-rest, takes the load off my shoulders from trying to hold my hands higher.

I change chair height frequently during the day, also get up and move around. I make sure to get out and exercise (jog, walk, bike, skate, go to gym, etc.) once a day, too. Got a chair that is adjustable 5 ways: seat tilt, seat height, back height, back tilt, and lumbar support. Keeping the room warm helps, too. When thumb & wrist arthritis flares up, I take aspirin & wear typing gloves to keep hands warm.

Last, but not least, I keep knee chondromalacia at bay with Osteo Bi-Flex (glucosamine & chondroitin) daily.
Sore throat remedies needed...sm

I'm on day #4 of a severe sore throat.  Ran a fever days 1 and 2.  Really no sinus congestion to aggravate it.  My 7-year-old daughter has the same thing but with sinus drainage.  The pediatrician confirmed yesterday she doesn't have strep and this is all a virus that is going through the community as they've seen a lot of this same virus over the past week.  We found out that 2 other kids in her class have the same muck.


We're doing salt water gargles and I'm using Cepacol lozenges.  We're also drinking lots of hot and cold fluids.  I can't use TheraFlu because it has ingredients that I'm allergic to.   I can't eat anything other than drinking liquid soups because it hurts too bad.  Definitely not a fun way to lose weight for sure!


What's your favorite remedy to make a sore throat feel better? 


I do know my flu started with a severe sore throat
and then progressed to a very high fever, and chills and then it coupled with bronchitis. But the other poster is right, my doctor said there are so many different types of flu around this year. If he gets worse I would definitely call the doctor.
By the 4th day, I would be too sore to continue the rest of the week...
LOL
I had a horrible sore throat a few months ago and used
a big tablespoon of pure honey and just ate it. I probably over a few hours that same day used a couple more but it was amazing for me, totally worked. I really had nothing here at the house for sore throat that seemed to work. Hope it can help you too.
I suffered from a sore throat for a week or so s/m
but no fever, just congestion.  I started using a Netti pot two times every day and I no longer have the sore throat.  I even tried going without it for a day and sore throat came right back.  It must be that I sleep with my mouth open due to the congestion.  Good luck!
WHy when I did a shot of whiskey it help my very very sore throat and cold??
It was suggested to me to do a shot of whiskey (which I hate by the way) because I had a very bad sore throat, the kind of sore throat that is deep down in your throat like towards the bottom of your neck...anyhow I had been battling this for over 5 days worse with it getting worse with each day...So, I do the shot of whiskey and it helped reduce the intense pain immediately and while my throat still aches, the intense deep pain is gone....Why does this work?
Sore thumb joints from hitting space bar (sm)
They are sore on the opposite side of the thumb, not the underside that hits the space bar.  Does anyone know anything I can wear on my thumbs to prevent this from getting worse?  I'm afraid I'm giving myself arthritis in my thumbs!  Thanks
Anyone else get sore legs and muscle tightness and leg pain when
walking and pulling tendons a certain way with walking from sitting and holding your legs fixed when working.  I think I tend to stiffen up my legs.  I expect some amount of tendonitis is going on.
I agree and leaving early not sore loser (sm)
I think that's just graceful, letting the winners have their day plus that had to really sting after the great season they had. But what a great game it was. Both teams should be proud they made it there.
swore not sore. Ugg. Someday the pounds will go away and the typos too
nm
Could be strep - makes my children throw up, sometimes no sore throat(nm)

Horrible sore throat - neg flu, neg strep - hurts sooo bad (sm)
they gave me magic mouthwash, I am using that plus Chloraseptic which they said was ok, they gave me zithromax just in case, which I started taking, I am using naprosyn and sudafed too.  So....Sudafed, naprosyn, magic mouthwash, and chloraseptic and my throat is still killing me. Has anyone else had this and/or does anyone have any suggestions???  I have just had a low grade temp which is gone now, very runny nose and some body aches which are not that bad.  But the throat - oh my goodness I can't even explain how bad it is.
Well, I have had a sore throat and head cold now for a week and it was pretty
bad. My ears even hurt. 
Yes, sore breasts and missed period are definitely good indicators...
take a test already and let us know--lol
Finances were a real sore spot in our marriage for a long time

But my husband was in the military for 12 years, and he was away quite a bit, so I had to take over the finances. When he was home and he was paying the bills, he would get so upset because he felt there wasn't enough money and "where does all the money go?" "why don't we ever have any left?" was all I heard. I finally told him I was taking them back over because I was sick of hearing that every month. I put everything on MS Money, categorize it, subcategorize it, and add memos, so if he wants to know exactly where the money is going, all he has to do is look.


Funny....he really hasn't complained a whole lot since.
