Is anyone listening?
I'm not sure anyone is but what the hey.
I had the strangest day yesterday.
Went to the accupuncturist in the morning for a regular tune-up. I've being seeing her since last spring. She's done wonders for my menstrual cramping and overall well being. For those who haven't been it's hard to describe. The needles don't generally hurt, and when they do it's not that big a deal. The sensations range from pinprick, burning itch to momentary searing to the occasional muscle lock. On two prior occasions the sessions have induced spontaneous crying. Both instances I was in physcial pain on arrival so not unexpected I suppose. But this morning ... jeez louise ... almost all of them hurt, not to mention the trigger spot on the top of my right foot. Again spontaneous crying. And we're talking crocodile tears complete with sobs ... I had a hard time calming down. So much for my relaxing session. It gets better, so to speak, time to turn over. Again the first needle ... searing ... spontaneous crying ... this is new ... never happened with my back points.
Definitely not a relaxing session. The crying is cathartic definitely but I'm a little freaked out. Instead of getting better each of the past three sessions is getting "worse" (more painful) than the prior ever since my return. I had expected the first to have the potential for this but not ongoing. Hopefully this isn't a pattern ... otherwise I may need some other help !!! LOL
As for today ... the day started out a bit of a downer. Was supposed to have a massage appointment at noon with a new therapist, recommended by my physio ... I am wreck I know ... I'm on my way downtown only to have her call and cancel. Better yet her next available appointment isn't until next Friday!!! Not impressive as I've waited two weeks to get in to begin with. At least my pedicure this afternoon has given me happy pretty feet 'cause the rest of me is sore and achy - my neck/shoulder is tight, I think I have a rib out as my back/side is sore. Usually I can get this to pop but it's stuck and I"m uncomfortable. See I am a wreck. If it doesn't straighten itself out I'm going to have a hard time making it until my chiro appointment on Wednesday. Here's hoping ...
Suppose I should go home and think about dinner ... need to feed the man so he can keep working on my bathroom!!! Progress is being made, albeit slowly, but then whom am I to speak. I've been pretty slow at accomplishing my own tasks. A few of the littles ones are off my list and I'm working on a couple of big ones so I am making some of my own progress.
Oh well I digress ... but c'est la vie! It's my blog after all ain't it!!!

Perhaps you are crying because of other stuff and this is just bringing it out. Hmmm???? Or, less dramatic, perhaps it actually hurts and that means you shouldn't do it anymore! LOL
