ORTHO:

Ortho is a gentle non invasive approach to reliving tension and pain in the body while promoting structural balance and over all well being. Ortho Bionomy helps to eliminate pain and allows for accelerating healing options. This form of bodywork is structural and neurological based of work that may help with issues relate to trauma, chronic pain, surgical post and pre, inflammation, acute injuries, auto-immune disorders, lymphatic glands or fluids in general, nerve pain or disconnections, sports injuries, whiplash or car related situations, fibromyalgia, and more importantly DECREASES STRESS!

After my last post, you can understand why I push for Ortho, all Ortho session are clothing on and non judgmental. This principal based work blows my mind all the time. Staying in right relationship while applying less is more creates the most beneficial sessions. Plus, I use less equipment, less laundry, and Ortho is way easier on my hands and joints. Ortho 101  

My practice has an induced demand. The office sells itself with the beautiful nuances and commanding views of the magnificent Colorado Nation Monument. Proud to be a true luminary of the building and I am not bragging or implying that I am self centered by any means. I take serious pride and offer my best sessions with each and every client that walks through the door.

 

CYCLING:

The River Trail is so dang attractive these days!! Hardly anyone uses this trail system during winter months and I relish in the freedom of simply rolling around with a seat between my legs. 

FINGER UPDATE:

Check out that pinky nail!! Remember when that treadmill wheel crushed that sucker good? The new growth under the trashed nail is incredibly sensitive. When I graze the top of the new nail with say my opposite hand thumb nail, feels just like a paper cut. Sometimes that sensation appears in my neck for a split second. 

My middle finger took a hit many many moons ago and refuses to grow out properly. Just about the time it is almost flush, I rip it back while putting my hand in my pocket or something lame like that. I need these hands and yet I hammer on them all the time. I guess its that autodidactic lifestyle of mine but the little pinky nail looks healthy and smooth so far. NICE 

GYM ACTION:

These weeks sort of got away from me and I happily missed a few days. I was repairing a treadmill when a trainer walked by. They stopped to thank me for all the extra work I do and they noticed I replaced the magnetic readers in one of the rowing machines. Now I do not do extra work for the attention and I do not post these blogs for empathy. In fact, I am closer and closer to being thrown in the furnace, these blogs are interned for my nieces kid and their kids. Someday they will read these and maybe think that they knew I was the cool Uncle but had no idea just how cool I was. He He He

So I stuck up a conversation with the trainer about squats and proper form. What I am looking for, what my goal is, where my head should be in relationship to my hips, do my toes point out , and why do my knees fall inward for those split seconds during the lift. 

They showed me some upper body stretches first. You stand with your nose in the corner, your arms at a 90, hands higher than your head, and lean into the corner with your nose. You basically look as if you are standing like a cross with your elbows bent at a 90 upwards. That stretch worked my chest!! I thought that I was fairly limber until that stretch landed on my radar. The next exercise was side stepping with a resistance band around our ankles. Burned My Gluteus Maximums Like No Other!!!! How Did I Get This OLD??? Phuc Me 

SNOW SHOES:

Colorado is so flipping beautiful and I totally appreciate all its beauty. I am so fortunate to call this massive chunk of land home.

I have been shooting up to the Grand Mesa lately and during this one incident I discover a very eerie winter wonderland. I expected to cross paths with my very own akasha as I tromped around the virgin snow covered landscape. Mother Nature painted this stunningly gorgeous scene for me with 360 degree pristine calmness. I was under the impression that walking with a partner as one would be the ideal way to share an adventure but with all the wacky knuckleheads out there, SOLITUDE works for me. They can tuck & roll all they want. Keep Rolling You 

RADIO SHOW:

Covering for the Magic Carpet Ride once again tonight ( 2022/02/24 ) at 6:30pm. But for my good friend Mr Bill and his neighbors in the Ireland / UK, stream the show live the next day. This particular edition of the MCR will showcase deep cuts by Quincy Jones ( vinyl ), Nancy Sinatra ( vinyl ), Beach Boys ( vinyl ), Henry Mancini ( vinyl ), The King Elvis Presley Live in Tennessee, Thunderball, Naked Eyes, Twilight Surfer ( vinyl ), Allman Brothers, & so much for for your listening pleasures. Stream LIVE HERE or catch it afterward ( HERE ) and I opened the show with an airline safety clip. Rock On 

DOGS:

So scored this month as I bounced into back to back to back house and dog sitting gigs. Which just happened to coincide with the Olympic Games. Cable Rocks  

The games were fantastic, these dogs were hilarious, and the Full Moon was electrifying. Talk about lucky!! The USA Network broadcasted the games LIVE and I couldn't have been more excited. The evening rabbit ears rebroadcast was pathetic at best and stupidly full of Horse Sh*T Human Interest Stories.

Watching the Winter Games was the ideal entertainment for allowing my mind to calm down after a couple of rat raced months. I personally was disappointed by the lack of cultural awareness coverage during the games but boy did they show the Great Wall Of China from every possible angle.

This might have been the first Winter Olympics in which I was captivated by the elegance of ice dancing. Their musical selections were fabulous and the choreography was beyond outstanding. Now I still stand by the fact that ALL judged sports totally blows chunks. Face it, I am a timed racing events kinda guy.   

Such as; the bobsled events and skeleton runs were mind bending at those speeds. Downhill skiing Men's and Women's events were out of this world with speed over 80mph / 130kph. Both the short track and long track speed skaters mesmerized my every thought. All of the Biathlon events were LIVE on the USA Network and I am fascinated by the talent, raw speed, and total control of their bodies. I still don't quite understand ski jumping and all the rules but its highly suspenseful. Now, I could do without ALL the X Games events, those event should never have been absorbed by the Olympic Committee, and doesn't appeal to me what so ever. They are another animal all together and require their own spotlight for sure. 

Back to the tribe, this little girl above is totally precious. She is such a sweet loving little gal. Unfortunately her poor rear hips just do not function like back in her puppy days. But that doesn't stop her from running around, giving chase to the chickens, or following her brother and sister up the stairs. 

They weren't the best overnight sleepers and required attention at all hours of the night but it is why I was there. Sometimes the old bladder needs to go and dogs don't know if it is 3am or 5am. They just bark at the door to notify me of their needs. After all, they could go on the floor or I could get my lazy A$$ up. Easy Peasy Human 

One of the dogs has gone to town on this door jam. And you just know that it wasn't this little girl in the above photo. Oh, not her. Here are the before pictures down below. 

                                                       Yikes!!!

                                                 And Afterwards

                                      I Didn't Do It But It Looks Gr8 - Supervisor Below 

I only painted the one board because I do not have the approval from the owners yet. I just replaced the weather stripping and added a coat of paint as a courteous gesture. I also cleaned all the windows and screens while catching some Olympic Fever. If the humans appreciate my handy work, just maybe, MAYBE, maybe they will allow me to paint their back deck that faces south as it's quite weathered. 

This would be the deck that I was referring to. This deck would sparkle with a fresh paint of coat and full of life once again. Right
