Odd book ends

A day of two extremes again with an iffy bit in the middle.
Started off the morning with the ultimate of luxury... a massage. Although I have to be honest, not all my massages have been luxuries in the past, more like an infliction of torture being lavished on me!
Depending on what I needed the massage for i.e. a cricked neck or a trapped nerve in my thigh etc, I have in the past used the hole in the treatment bed where you are supposed to place your face, as a bit to bite down on as the pain of the massage has actually made me cry.
You big girl's blouse...I hear you cry!
Today, my masseur said that as she worked on my back, parts were very quickly red, which indicated that muscles were heavily knotted through trauma or stress. Just above my kidney on the left hand side, was a good example of the knotted muscles.
My oxygen unit gets very icy around where the oxygen is fed in and that part rests right on that spot. And damn that spot hurts, but she soon relaxed it and today it was a really relaxing massage.

The iffy bit was driving my car from the relaxing bit to the ouchy bit. Iffy, because strangely enough, I get car sickness in this courtesy car.
Have you ever heard of that, because I haven't?
I have felt sick plenty of times as a passenger, especially when a passenger in the back, but never when driving. You are usually too preoccupied with keeping away from other idiots on the road that put you in this position of needing a courtesy car in the first place!
This car however is a diesel and being an automatic, it rolls as it works it's way through the gears ,a bit like a boat riding a wave. I have to open the window as I drive, to stop me from wanting to vomit. Ooo roll on the 9th when I get mine back.

The ouchy bit of my day, was having my weekly pummelling at St Mikes's. Today it was a little different from usual, as Hannah couldn't get the head of the treatment bed down from an upright position, so me being an obliging patient and still fairly agile from years of yoga, I decided to help my poor stressed Hannah and lay on the bed with my legs concertinaed upwards against it.
Not the most restful position to be in and certainly gave me a head rush when I stood up again after I was drained and it was all finished.
Having cramp in my toes while in that position, wasn't the best of timings either, but made for plenty of giggles from Hannah and plenty of cussing from me.

I could never say my life is boring...weird yes, but boring no.

Lots of love Debbie x
