And last but not least Jose who enjoys long walks and hanging out with Kitty:
I was back at the gym lifting weights regularly about 2 months ago when BAM I got an injury. I continued on thinking meh, it will go away. Well obviously it got worse and now here I am with an injured rotator cuff. At one point it felt like a 300 pound German man had wrestled me to the ground. My chiropractor was appalled that I've been using my arm at all since I last saw her and now I've been told to pretend it's broken and use my left hand for reaching etc. Well folks, I'm a righty and it's been tres difficult to do that. I'm ready to tape this sucker to my body because for some reason I can't help but use it....reaching into the cupboard for a glass *doh*, hanging laundry *doh*, reaching into the backseat of the car *ouch and doh*.
I also went for my first deep tissue/therapeutic massage last night. I've had a hot stone as well as a relaxing massage before but never anything like this. Holy shit it felt great and painful all at the same time. It was like I wanted to beg her to stop one minute and the next I didn't want it to end. Today however it feels like that 300 pound German man has taken a baseball bat to my back and yet there are no bruises. I'll be going for another one again next month :)
Speaking of the gym (a few paragraphs ago :P ) why is it when I go to the gym....even 30 minutes later.....I look like I've been running for 3 days straight I'm sooo red??
Anyone else have this problem?? Happy Friday!!

Holy mac, you do look red. And I misread your line to be "I feel like a 300 pound German man...". I was getting worried for a minute or 2.
YAY! You got the gifts! Interesting how they come in twos.....Sorry about the bad sewing on the top of Jose's head. He looks worried.
You look sun-burnt!
Now that's red. Seriously.
Rawbean gives the best prizes. You seriously look like you're sunburned.
Yrautca, haha I do feel like a 300 pound German man...but that's another post LOL.
Rawbean, haha I thought Jose looked kinda stunned...but in a funny way! Thanks again :)
Natalia, and I took that photo at home, a while later..it's embarassing.
Wiwille, you beat me! I heard you goT the salt and pepper shakers, so cute!! And yeah, I go red, apparently noone else does this??
You know what its like to be wrestled to the ground by a 300 pound German? You saucy, little devil.
I showed my friend Jen this post and she said her face turns red like that too so you are not alone.
Rawbean!
And yes stunned indeed!
I do get pretty red also so I don't think it's so bad. But if it is lasting a long time I do think that's a bit odd.
That flat-out sucks about the rotator-cuff as that is an irritating, lingering injury.
Good luck rehabbing it, but on the plus side, the massage sounds great. I'm getting on this coming weekend as the pain during the session is worth the feeling after you walk out.
WIGSF haha!
Rawbean, oh good so I'm not a complete weirdo!
SS it lasts long enough, that photo was taken like 30 mins after I had left the gym.
2DP, see I felt very very sore the following day, however fine the 2nd day. I'm assuming that's normal.
