Facing the future unbowed--here's hoping the chiropractor will straighten me out, literally

One of the older women in my congregation has such a bad "widow's hump" that her shoulders are at almost a right angle to her back. I absolutely refuse to go that route.

And some of the other older women walk with their backs visibly off-center, their entire torsos, from the hip joints upward, tipped forward.

So when I began noticing that I, too, was walking tipped forward . . .

(To the Skier gang: Check the DVD--Several times in my dances, at points when I turn around or face sideways, it's visible that I'm not standing completely straight.)

Therefore, I'm now investing in a chiropractor, in a sincere attempt to avoid getting literally bent out of shape.
