Does anybody else think like me ??

The week before I head out for a ski trip, I start to take things a little easier, The last thing I want is an injury, before I have even hit the slopes :-(

So things I do NOT do before a trip away.

1. I do NOT go to the gym, in case I put my back out.
2. I do NOT go for that game of squash, the one that the boss has ask me to go for and if I go I know promotion is on the way, but just in cash I twist my ankle “ I say no!!”
3. I do NOT lift all them heavy cylinders( I am a scuba Instructor) in case I pull a muscle in my shoulder..
4. I do NOT run for the bus, in case I trip and smash my head open on the very bad Spanish pavements.
5. I do NOT drink so much at night, in case I fall down the stairs, AGAIN !!
6. I do NOT lose my passport, as it would be impossible to get a new one here in Spain and if I could, it would surly mean rushing around trying to find all the forms, photo's and the embassy. Think of the possible injuries that may cause !!

So bearing in mind the above, how come this morning just 5 hours away from going on the big bird to skiing land, I reach for my cup of coffee on the table and pull a muscle in my neck !!

HOW !! how does this happen ??

So my question is what do you NOT do before you go on a skiing trip ??

You make them sound like convicts !! They are just children ;-) Aren't they ??

I hear Prozac can be very calming, for the nerves !! :-)

children are you joking, when you get passed the make-up hair styles and bravado i suppose so, yes a 2 hour night watch you never know better safe than sorry.

i hoping all the activities wear them out. prior to boo boo's

If I end up avoiding things I hurt myself so just carry on as per, excluding football. I stopped playing 5's and 11's all together this season :lol:

I woke up this morning with a stiff................neck. Its hurting more now as the day goes by, and pulls when I turn to the right. This happens every so often and lasts a few days. I fly tomorrow, so this has happened at just the wrong time :evil:
