more good

she walked in my office today for some help and she saw me rubbing my shoulder, stretching + looking somewhat uncomfortable. she asked if i was okay. i said, sure, just a dumb shoulder injury going on FOREVER. i said, how can i help you? but, she said, here, call this number. it's my chiropractor and you will love him. he is amazing and right around the corner.
i promise.
you don't need to be in pain.

duh.

so, i helped her out. she left. i called the office + the woman who answered was so sweet to me and said, come in at 3:30 today. we will get you all checked out. i called my primary doctor as i need to have referrals with my plan. my favorite admin picked up, knew all about this doctor, i had all the necessary info and BAM! i was going to the chiropractor.
i have never been to a chiropractor.

i did physical therapy in january/february this year for my neck, but then, i felt worse? i started to lose my range of motion in my right shoulder. boo.

i had a really really bad fall down 6 wooden stairs in my house
in november 2008 at midnight and have never been right, since.

today, i found some new comfort. i LOVE this doctor. he was sweet, warm and really wants to help and he is going to accept a lower co-pay because i explained my situation.
he spent over an hour with me. he asked me to get every single one of my xrays over the last two years and we will look at them together... my other doctors have not been so accommodating. he said, again, you can feel better.

good people.
sent my way.

i am a bit uncomfortable tonight. some not so unusual pain. i have to take 48 hours off of yoga and gym time. apparently, it's more than my right shoulder. it's my neck. it's my right hip. my right oblique muscles and the upper right leg.
he confirmed everything i had been feeling in yoga over the past 6 months.

again, another strange encounter today got me one more step forward.
moving forward.

thank you, stranger, JB.

i have already recommended your recommendation.

xoxo!

TILLANDSIA are AIR PLANTS

i bought two really neato air plants last week and i am enjoying them, thoroughly! they are hanging out in my office window. and, they will bloom, to boot!

tillandsia (air plants) > bright light, no direct sun. "water" (i just soak mine for a minute) 2 times a week, but make sure the plant dries within a few hours. it also needs good air circulation.

they are weird looking, colorful + grow on anything!

and you can hang them upside down, right side up, sideways or just about anywhere.

xo,

i'm in heaven

delightful things today!

maybe it's my altar.

or the energy i am sharing with the world.

whatever it is, please, keep the good stuff coming.

i just had fabulous connections today with every single place my two feet landed.

i had a beautiful yoga class.
namaste to you, too.

i have gym plans tomorrow night.
sweat.

i got a surprise invitation that made my heart lighter.
and, all flirty.

i helped someone beyond my scope.

and, i swallowed my pride and shared pleasantries with some unpleasantries.

oh, and my dog rocks my world even when she digs in my couch.
