OUT & BOUT:

Yes, I have been "bout" these days and totally digging it. I mean how does one not experience ones own surroundings?? It is one of the many reasons I throughly enjoy reading all of YOUR updates and what nots. 


I am feeling much better these days and finally discovering my own rhythm as well. Hips are effortlessly rolling with each step, cardiovascular system to be devised soon, and overall attitude is rock solid. Bitchin


Water is the priority and mixing in a packet every other day of Emergen C for those just because minerals and electrolytes. Plus, I scored big time with my volunteer food pick up's the other day. Vitamin Cottage donated a ton of organic berries, mangos, and carrots. I also unearthed decent organic veggies and ORGANIC BROWN EGGS!!!  

DOGS:

Quick little treat drop off. Their humans are home but I saw fit that they needed a just because treat from Uncle T. Classic 



And the answer is always 42 as well. I just love puppy dog eyes. Those expressive eyes, eyebrows that speak a silent thought, and ears that happily be. Love It 

AUSSIE OPEN:

Robert picked up tix for the Open 2023 and I was stoked with daily WHATSapp photos. He was in attendance for the rain debacle and even sent me the " Why was the roof open?" with photos attached. 





The bottom photo made my day. He picks up a new huggie every year at the Open and at the F1 Grand Prix in Albert Park. You can always count on that. 

SUNSETS:

The high desert certainly offers up some gorgeous sunsets. A beautiful hike with clean cold air filling your lungs, Come On. Crunchy snow under your boots and 360 degrees of peacefulness. Game Changer 

ORTHO:

Jump back and kiss myself. One of my goals for the year was building up the practice and WoW. I have been working with a number of new clients. 


My Ortho clients are the best. It is just so refreshing to hold a session with zero judgment. Once I am in my own skin, they are sharing a story from something, and I have a soft focus, releases happen without hesitations. So Cool 


Working with necks are a perfect example of that. There is something so rewarding being able to feel the cervical bones lengthen while in both of your hands. 


A new client came to me as a referral. Their go to massage therapist couldn't see them and they sent those folks my way. Unfortunately , this client fell backwards while walking their dog. Slipped on some ice and biffed it good. 


They were obviously rather guarded and stiff overall. I did my best to accommodate and reassure them that I believe the client always directs the session. None of that NO PAIN NO GAIN horsey poo. 


They sat on my table and made mention how soft my table is compared to their "own" therapist. So I slipped in the opportunity to work with them seated upright. They confusingly asked me ," You mean I don't have to lay down?" Absolutely not my friend. They smiled from ear to ear and we shared the best session in a long time. As they were leaving, they peered over their shoulder and stated," I reached for the door knob without wincing!!"  Lovely 


DEATH:

This new category of mine totally blows. I am now entering that phase of my life were I am witness to the passing of my idols. Cindy's passing shocked me. I cherished those childhood memories of watching Mork & Mindy followed up with Laverne & Shirley & Squiggy.


COMET:

Get Outside My Friends!! My phone rings last night when I was almost committed to sleepy by. They coaxed me to come out and play and claimed that I was at fault for their interest in this comet. I smile as I type this and so thankful that I caved in. What A Night!! Yes, it WAS freezing cold as our sky was crystal clear. We anchored their spotting scope on the roof of their truck and laughed the night away. Good Times 


CYCLING: 

My cycling efforts are non existent even though I am on the commuter bike everyday. I pulled up my STRAVA January 2023, 2022, 2021, and 2020 and have yet to discover a more piss poor performance. Yes the roads have been icy at times. Yes the temps are below freezing. Yes I could think of two hundred more excuses with my eyes staring into the sun. Again, I still ride the commuter bike but nothing significant to mention here. But my step count ... over 200,000 last week !! On pace for 250,000 by this Sunday. Truly stepping into the future I am. 

GOALS:

  1. Dancing On The Docks
  2. Belly Laugh 
  3. Ride When I Can
  4. Catch Up On Sleep 
  5. Good Ol CPA Time - Yahooo0000

I leave you with this little video of mine. I recently flew down to Sunny San Diego to help my buddy Tim build his deck. So this video contains a variety of time lapse footage, happy belly rubbing dogs, and photos from the main project. Or I should say, Progress !?! Hell, call me bat Sh*t crazy but I love flying over our Mother Earth. I Really Do 

Cheers

  1. Dearest Travis,
    Wow, your surroundings look incredible during winter time—not good for biking but for being outdoors and walking!
    Those dogs really love you and appreciate the bonus they receive.
    As for taking the Emergen–C I would be careful: https://www.drugs.com/sfx/emergen-c-side-effects.html
    This is a reputable website with 566,000 webpresence! See it here—site:drugs.com
    Glad you could help this new client and that they got a referral to you!
    LOVED the video, like going back in time and studying the clouds and mother earth from above. Did fly more than 1,500,000 miles for work and visiting family...
    Looking forward to some sunny days after too much rain so I can start biking. My housekeeper started yesterday—yay, got my help and feels great.
    Hugs,
    Mariette

    2. Yeah, wish we'd had our iPhones back then... Our one–way commute to work in Indonesia yielded 11,806 miles and we made 4 round trips annually: https://mariettesbacktobasics.blogspot.com/2012/07/fly-with-us-to-jakarta-indonesia.html

  3. An interesting read as always and the YT clip was good.
    I did not attend the tennis but a friend did every day. The atmosphere during the Australian Open is marvellous. I can't say the same for the Grand Pricks.

  8. Great job helping people with their issues. You give them a new way to think, not everything needs to be the same. The person was amazed that they didn't need to lay down. Great work, Padre.

  13. I'm so glad that your job bringing you so much joy. It is good to be a healer, isn't? Even better when you are your own boss.

    250,00 steps in a week? That's amazing! I don't track steps but i'm pretty sure I'm nowhere close to that.
