Massage therapy and working every Saturday

I'm a massage therapist....not a masseuse, and the downfalls of my job and me working every Saturday.......

I have to correct people who call me a masseuse.  No, those are people who give "happy endings".  We are Massage therapists and if you can't remember that we know 200 ways to hurt you and 200 muscles that can be hurt. :)

 Things to remember when getting a massage

1) take a shower

2) shave your legs.  One day growth is not bad but when I cut myself on your leg hair, we have a problem.

3) IF YOU ARE PREGNANT....FOR GOD SAKE........TELL THE FRONT DESK PEOPLE OR THE THERAPIST.  some therapists do not do pregnancy massage and it is best to wait until the second trimester.

My parents take care of my kids one Saturday a month.  The other Saturdays they go see their dad.  My mom said she didn't see them enough so she asked if she could have one Saturday.  Sure, no problem.  In the month of September, there are 5 Saturdays.  I called my dad to remind him that they had the kids this Saturday and he says, "OH NO.... I thought I told you."  no, i say.

My dad then tells me he and my mom are going to Tenn to see my nephew's football game.  Ok. 1) I wasn't invited and my other sister was.  I wouldn't go but I'd like to be invited.  2) they could have gone to any other game...

 So, I had to call about 8 people to see if they could take my kids on Saturday.  Most people are busy and some people just can't handle both my kids.  Caroline is a picky eater and Lauren will talk your ear off. I know if you have kids of your own then it is a task to take on two more but help a friend out just one Saturday!!!

I finally got in touch with one of my babysitters and she was glad to do it.  The only thing is since friends couldn't help me out I lost money today.

The kids had a great time.  They went to the park and played hard. They got McDonald's and they got to come back home and play their electronic games and watch youtube.
