Fully Alive…Ready to Smile

posted by erin on Sep 10

I’m sitting here, watching the minutes tick by as I keep doing “one more thing.”  I should be in bed.  I haven’t slept in 3 days.  I’m so tired.  You know what sucks the most?  Finally falling asleep at 7:00 a.m. and having the deepest sleep you’ve had all night only to wake up at 7:10 a.m. because you have to get up and get the kids ready for school.  I even had a full on dream in those 10 minutes!  Grrr…

Where was I?  I went for my CranioSacral/Myo Fascial massage today.  It was intense.  It’s different than your traditional massage.  I didn’t know what to expect, so I wasn’t surprised by anything…except perhaps the placement of hands in places that, ahem, were kind of close to, well you know, places.  It appears the Sacrum is “low, low, low” on the back.  Other than that, fabulous.  I will definitely go again.  I could already see the physical effects of it directly after the massage just by looking in the mirror.  My whole right side of my body was in a weird slumped position before and after it was all more aligned and upright.  Very good.

I realized I haven’t mentioned anything about the fact that (and excuse my yelling) IT ‘S MY BIRTHDAY IN ONE MONTH FROM TOMORROW!!!  Happy sigh.  For those of you just joining my blog mid year, my birthday is a national holiday in the making.  Actually it IS a holiday (although only here in Canada, but whatevs) since it’s on Thanksgiving weekend.  Every few years it ends up on Thanksgiving Day.  And everyone can be thankful that I’m here : )  I need some great ideas for a birthday party.  I’m not sure if we should go for supper and then come back here for dessert like last year.  Or maybe have the whole evening here.  Ooh, maybe a murder mystery night.  Or a theme night.  Or maybe we should go bowling.  The options are endless.  I sound like I’m 12 again.  I just love me a good party.

Also lost on the radar is the fact that in 3 weeks from today I am joining 3 lovely ladies on a road trip to St. Louis to go to the Joyce Meyers convention!  How exciting is that?  I get to cross another thing off of my 1001 things to do in 101 days list since I will be taking a road trip with friends into the U.S.  Awesome!

I was going to write something of substance and not just another update post, but I can’t think clearly right now.  Doctor’s orders were to go have a hot bath before bed.  So here I go!

And thank you all for the pity comments you give me when I write crap like this just to fill space on the interweb.  Makes me feel so loved : )  One day I will have something awesome to report.

P.S. I just have to add how super duper (super trouper) excited I am that ABBA Singstar is being released at Christmas!!!  I’m so excited I think I’m going to pee (just kidding) (about the peeing not the excitement levels).
