Heading Out

So I'm supposed to be packing to go to Montebello for decor work. We're leaving around noon, and coming back on Wednesday (with no computer access!!!). What am I doing instead? Loading new music on my iPod, and photos!! I had no idea that my Nano was able to have pics, so I now have 17 images loaded. Have I packed anything? Of course not!! But I have time.

I had a massage on Friday. It was badly needed. My left shoulder and neck get really messed up from playing guitar and flute - neither are normal positions. This was exacerbated in March when the little boy from the nursery school jumped on my back to give me a hug. It clicked my neck, but I didn't have time to see anyone then, and it started feeling better so I never bothered. Well, for about a month, my clavicle has been really tight, and I even felt like I had an upper rib out on the left. My whole shoulder feels pulled up. I saw a new massage therapist because mine is lovely, but not getting what needs to be worked on, even after I pointed it out a few times. Well, let me tell you, Mark is fabulous!!! He understood when I said I needed a lot of pressure - I have a very high threshold for pain, and my muscles need seriously deep pressure. You know your shoulder is very messed up when the RMT says "hmmm . . . .it's very tight. I can't even access the scapula or the clavicle because the muscles are so tight. Muscle is supposed to be supple, but it's like massaging bone on the left side". Ouch! Yesterday, I was so sore. Advil is my friend for sure. The good news is that the headache I have had a bit of for a couple of weeks is now gone. I go again a week from Friday. I just hope all the decorating doesn't lock things up before then!
