I know, I know...I've been so neglectful of this blog lately. It's just that I've had school, work, and my mind has been a little preoccupied, to say the least. But no more excuses! I will attempt to get back on track starting...right now. In the last couple of weeks I have found myself to get more annoyed than usual. My tolerance has went way down. I've even caught myself feeling stressed out at times. Although I recognized the negativity early on and didn't allow it to bring me down, it left me asking the question, "What is up with me?" Not until just now, did I realize all the negativity is probably due to my lack of writing over the last couple of weeks. I guess writing is more therapeutic for me than I initially thought. I should also give some of the blame to the fact that I haven't had a massage in forever. I became accustomed to getting one every couple of days and then when my clinical started, I was cut off cold-turkey. I've almost forgotten how great massages are...almost! My body is somewhat tired and so is my mind but I absolutely love what I do! I hope I always love giving massages as much as I do now. But I must admit, I'm so over the school thing that it's not even funny. So the countdown begins...ten more weeks until I graduate. In the meantime, I will take time out of my busy schedule and make therapy (writing) a priority. Who knows? Maybe I can even squeeze getting a massage in there somewhere too.

But what about me?

In need of relaxation?
Receive a 50-minute full-body Swedish Massage for $25.00 at Reflections of Health School of Massage. We have started our clinicals and our appointment days are Thursdays (5:30, 6:30, and 7:30pm) and Fridays (10:00am-2:00pm). You must call and schedule an appointment.
I also will begin my practice massages outside of school soon. I'm required to do at least 30 hours. These massages will be free and most likely be done in my home. But if you have a quiet, comfortable, and private space, I will consider coming to you. Please send me an e-mail (ebalex29@hotmail.com) if you're interested.

{Yawn}
I'm finally back home and it's kind of bittersweet. I'm excited because I start my massage clinicals tomorrow but part of me is so missing Florida already. My trip was so much better than I expected and I was expecting it to be pretty good. I need to be catching up on sleep so I will post pics and such later. I also still need to un pack! I've always thought myself to be very low maintenance but whenever I pack for a vacation I realize that is so not the case. It's crazy all the things that a female needs just to go out of town for a week. I believe I'm more of a t-shirt and jeans kind of gal who occasionally likes to get spiffy. Maybe it's because I'm a mother but I would pick comfort over fashion any day. Anywho, I'm exhausted and have so many things I should be doing but instead I'm off to bed.
