Ahh, Massages!

One of the few things I miss about being a working woman is the weekly massages that my dear friend Mary convinced me were essential for my sanity and physical well-being.  The last year or so that I worked, I even convinced Forry that his back and legs would feel much better if he had them as well.  Not only did we enjoy our massages, but we also became good friends with Cherie, the therapist.  She helped see me through two knee surgeries!  Her practice is full and she is very busy, but she has been great about fitting us in for at least one massage when we are back in the area.  This afternoon was the day!

It was good catching up with what was going on with Cherie and her siblings, her parents and her partner, while at the same time filling her in on the goings-on of mine. Although it has been a year since we have seen her, we picked up right where we left off and she gave me as bad a time about my tight neck and back muscles as she has always done!

We made a couple of other quick stops while we were in Spokane, then came back to Auntie Violet for a half hour's nap before we headed to Ritzville.  We met our Godson Pete and his fiancee Tessa and her son Ayden at Consuelo's for a Mexican dinner.  They had offered to come up to Spokane, but we thought it would be easier to meet them in Ritzville as Ayden has started kindergarten this week and it is a school night. We had had dinner with their whole family a couple of weeks ago in Moses Lake, but it's hard to really talk much when there are a bunch of people.  This way we got a chance to have a good visit with them.  They will be getting married in Hawaii in early November.
