6 days! 8-15-07

I go back to AK in 6 days!! whoo hoo!! Time has really been moving! This week has been yucky, Ive had about three horrible days in a row... things just weren't going right. Yesterday I was so annoyed with everything at work that I totally stopped talking and wasn't all smiley. Travis one of my boss was totally annoyed that I wasn't myself... He gave me grief that I wasn't smiling and that I was giving dirty looks that could kill.. * there was a rotten small by our compactor at work adn it really made me sick! I felt bad all day long and then I was asked to pull pogs all day * I hate pulling pogs, I have no idea why either* I didn't say anything and got started. I felt so yucky... I almost vomited real bad twice when I got in the area of the compactor... Travis thought I was a pansy the first time but the second time he saw me he believed me... He was like whoa we about had to call the cleaning crew back.. I told him I wasn't kidding about the smell really making me ill, he finally let up bugging me and lt me get back to work.. I'm not sure why its been a yucky week.. I was sick on friday too I felt so yucky like a flu but not all of it. just a really bad stomach ache and a horrible headache. *sighs* maybe i'm beyond exhausted,not getting more than 3 hours a night is catching up to me. I finally advertised that I'm open for therapy sessions. hope I get some business. I need money more than anything right now. I'm annoyed cause I owe money to everybody! gurrr.. I'm hoping to the the bulk of it caught up some time in the near future. Specially Debbie, Scott and Kristy. Mom and Dad are just going to have to wait till I get caught up and abit more stable which I hope will be soon. I've not done any work for Cutco in a while hopefully they haven't fired me or Deb .. haha. I'm going to try and do demos for cutco in AK as well. Oh I have a new intrest as of a few day's ago. I'm going to try and trade my Ford Focus in for a Ford Escape hybrid 2008. I don't know how the whole trade thing works but I'm looking into it. I would love to have an SUV that got good gas mileage.anyway thats my new goal before I go home to Ak, I'm hoping to have one by the end of this year so I can get a tax break. anyway.. ya thats whats going around in my head... ok thats all for now TCaGB Dream Sweet ~Julie Ann~

the strangest day 8-3-07

Well today has by far been the strangest day of my new career. I'm constantly blown away by peoples comments or remarks. Today started out crazy busy. I had to go to will call and buy tickets for Tasso's two patients. so i went up there and bought the tickets after some trouble. I actually run into my favorite patient there and her son and his girlfriend. so that was cool. On my way back I was surprised when this guy actually younger ( most people here are senior citciens or rich younger people) came outa a house and told me to wait up. I was umm ok... so he caught up with me and walked with me a little while. * I've never seen this guy before* well anyway... he asked if I was single and how old i was and blah blah.. I told him kinda hesitatingly. I found out he is 26 a med student in his last year and a resident of Maine. * mind you this guy is very good looking* so i'm surprised he would talk to me... but he continues to walk with me cause I told him I could stop and talk. He told me that he had watched me go up the street towards the main gate. He said he was upstairs and couldn't get down stairs fast enough to catch me before I got outa site. * e then hoped I was going to come back using the same street. seeing that I had no purse or wallet he figured I was just getting tickets.. *he was right* ok anyway.. I asked why he waited and and wanted to talk to me so much.. I figured he was here on vacation and thought he knew me from some place. * his shocking reply floored me. He said I was like this beautiful angle walking up the road and he HAD to talk to me. he said it was like he couldn't get my face outa his mind, he was hopping I used the same road.. this whole time I'm laughing. I'm thinking this guys is crazy! He got serious and said u my think my actions are funny but if you could have only seen what I saw 30 min ago and just now you would have to talk and meet the person too. ( he couldn't believe that I'm not dating and that i was single. I told him I'm not into games and that I haven't found anybody to click with. *he was understanding* I told him I was a Christian and that that cam first in my life. ( he kinda got quiet but kept up with me.) his name was Tod. I told him I'm a student and that I'm going back to Alaska when I'm done. * of course we talked about that..* I got near the house and told him that I needed to get back to work and stuff.. he didn't ask for my number but he did ask to kiss my cheek... I was surprised and totally off kilter.... umm ok.. so he kissed my cheek soft and then said audios s.. and that he hoped to meet me again around here.. he said that it was a fantastic chance that he got to talk to me and that to never stop smiling and never let my eyes get dull with sadness.. He told me that my personality and whole aura around was filled with pure joy and openness, he almost talked to me like an old man would... but it was different, I could tell this guy was serious and really believe that him meeting me was like meeting a famous person. He called me beautiful, gorgeous, the entire time he spoke to me. It was a meeting I'll never forget!... I don't think he was faking it either, or that anybody had put him up to it... kinda strange!! * I didn't tell him I leave tomorrow morning* I'm glad I'm leaving cause... man I've never met a guy who was so froward it thrilled me but scared me. *nice but different* ok that all happened before 10am...
I got the the house and my patient was waiting. Susan is the best patient I've ever had and I will never forget her. matter fact I'm going to keep in touch with her and monitor her progress. well she is somebody who is in major pain and totally at he wits end to get healing. I love this women for her courage and trust in letting me try and fix her. I have worked on her 4 days straight and she has come leaps and bounds in ROM and pain. she can move now and has bright beautiful eyes. every time I see her I can't believe how pretty this lady is.. she is whoa pretty!!!she like 52 years old and lives on the other side of the lake. she has been a ton of pain for the last 6 months. He QL was shot and her Rectus Abdominal , and also he external obliques. after all the work I've done she can move again!.. the first two visits she cried happy tears! I cried with her! I've been praying for her since I've met her! this women is just wonderful!.. well anyway we talk about alot of stuff in every session, mostly about her.. but today for some reason she talked about meeting me. I was in aww the entire time she talked! I got quiet and totally just shocked on what she said.. it was something along the lines as this. Tasso had told the class right way that Laura and I were his assistances. he then told everybody he had no openings for for appointments and that we did... so after class she approached me and asked to make and appointment. she said that I had this look in me that said I understood pain and that i had the ambitious approach of I'm going to try and fix this. She said everything was said with my eyes and actions. * I'm working on her thinking.. whoo I've never thought about my actions when I'm on the job* (something to be a where of next time) ok so she tells me that the first day I treated her was amazing cause I proved to her that i could get her out pain even if it was only a few hours... *this lady was a mess 20 years is a long time for back pain she said that my hands brought her hope. well we talked some more and I told her some of my thoughts and feelings about my self through out the years.. she was in shock by what I told her..... She said that I was the prettiest girl she had ever met, and that my not liking myself was totally wrong!! I told her about my weight issues! She looked at me funny and was bewildered... I said umm look at me I'm the fattest person in my entire family and relatives!! she then told me that she had never even noticed I had a fuller figure..... she said my face, eyes, skin and personality was so beautiful that she had no idea that I was a full figure... *she said my eyes were like beakers of giving hope and that I had heat and sole with every look I gave to a person* * she told me to be careful of men that would take that for granted.. she told me that I deserved somebody great and not ordinary.. *she was totally serious and looked me straight in the eyes telling me this.... she was like look at your eyes now they dance when I speak... ( I laughed and she laughed too)... I was just so shocked that this beautiful women had never noticed my figure and was blown away when she told me that she was going to watch me after I was done treating her cause she* wanted to look at me... lol * (after treating her, I didn't notice her look at me) *later when she brought her son for his appointment, she ave me a card and a huge HUG and said that I was beautiful and that if anybody said otherwise they were jealous. ( I about cried) . she left and I had an emergency patient. *he was about 25 and was an easy case, I had him done and ready to go in about 15 min.* ( he thanked me and told Tasso thanx for having the most beautiful women in Chutaqua NY work on him.) (Tasso told him it was his pleasure and winked at me* * he told me that he couldn't take his eyes off me and that it was a good thing I was married he said that I worked very professional and that was a good thing, cause my husband would be mad if I had guys calling me for more treatments.... * ( I wear a wedding band) lol * I didn't tell him I was single *grins* ok so that guy left me in awww and wonder... I can't honestly figure out why these people are telling me how pretty I am and that they don't want my personality to ever change. ( Im bewildered).
Ok my last patient is a guy 39 years old! ok I went through all the drills and found out what i needed to treat. we double booked at 2 today so I had no table.. so I was going to work on the bed next to Tasso's table. there were a total of 7 of us in the room. the guy John, has never had therapy done. I sit him in a chair and go after his QL he like yelps cause the refural pain is exactly where he said it happens.. I'm like yep I know.. thats why I'm working where I'm working, its causing the pain u are talking about. *he is sitting there amazed* He started his conversation with me in medium voice and said wow I bet you bf loves getting this kind of work done... I'm quiet and kinda chuckel, I hit another tender spot and he jumps..he's like i bet u can keep him in line with one finger.. I laughed and said I guess so. he ws like u haven't had to or tried and I finally told him that I don't have a bf and that I'm not dating.. he looked at me and said u r joking right? I looked at him with a why would i joke look.. anyway he turned around and looked away from me.. * I'm thinking umm did i say the wrong thing?) I keep working and then a min later the room get real loud with everybody talking at once and I'm not talking nor is John. He looks at me and tells me that I'm very dangerous. I laugh * not the first time I've been told that* he askes where Im from and how old I am and if I was really serious about being single. I'm like annoyed and tell him yes I'm single!..... *this guy is a bowhody builder and a very fit and tall man* ( not bad looking at all) anyway.. he was surprised that every place I put my hands that I was percise and careful..I told him I had to know right where I was putting my hands and where I was putting my body as to not give out the wrong msg and wrong work.. he got quiet and told me that it was annoying to have all the people in the room cause he couldn't say what he really wantedd to say... I was like umm u can say annything.. duhhh he wasn't talking about work... he got closer and wispered that i smelled heavelny.. * I'm sweating like a pig and this guy tells me I smell good!! ?? what the fruit!?!?! I told him that I had been wroking hard all day and that I was sorry I smelled.. he looked at me wasn was horrified! I was of course joking cause I knew what he ment... * he was really being serious about my smelling decilious, and that I had better watch myself cause I would have guys form all over after me. * ok so after I did what I could on the chair I was horrifed when Tasso said put him on the bed and work his posas!... ahhh nooooooo anything but that!!!!!!!!!! so I told John i needed him on the bed!! he wsa like whoa I'll never argue with a girl who wants me on the bed... * if I could have turned red I might have* so I work on his posas... I have to stick one hand in his gut/groin area! and one on his medial thigh!!! ... *sighs* *waaaaaa* *why me!!!??!!* so I'm working and I wont look at him at alll!!!! I wont even glance at his eyes the entire time I worked both posas muscles!.. he was squirmy and in pain most of the time but I felt him looking at me alot.. I did those muslces and then I had to work on his glutes! why oh why me??? he was in a alot of pain and was getting the textbook refureal pain so that was awesome. * I never felt threatned by this guy just embarresed that he told me his thoughts... anytime I told him what to move and how tom move it he was stoop himself fomr saying some obsean comment * all compliments towards me... I'm quiet and I'm trying to work fast! this guy is getting umm ya know.. so I need to get him outa my site fast or he will have a very embarrsing epsiode. i could tell he was getting a bit worried too. i left the room and told him I would find some stretch sheets to take home. * his last comment to me while leaving him was I would love to just take you home!* (I laughed good natured like and ran) this er touched me and never advanced on me so i wasn't scared of him but I was alert.... I have never been so embarressed.. he told the whole room that I was a awesome therapist and that I was drop dead georgous, and to not let guys alone with me cause, therapy might not ben the to do right now list... * I was like AHHHHH what is this guy doing!!! hes trying to tell the poeple in the room i'm a whore!.. * he laughed and then everybody else joined in while i'm looking at him in horror... He then told everybody to watch over me and that I'm to pretty of a girl to be hiding away as a therapist. I was still in shock as to what this guy was saying!... he got quieter and whispered for my ears alone stuff that I wont even write on here. He left feeling a ton better and *washed in my angel glow as he told me* I am still not sure what to think about today... I've never in me life had a day like this.. this blog is privet casue I just don't know how to deal with everything was thrown at me by 4 different people. What am I to do? they all pretty much said I was and angle sent to them by God, I am this inocent young women that is a therapist and there, assistance in healing. * all of them asked to take my hands and me home with them* (even susan). needless to say I'll never have another day like this... If I told anybody this they would die of laughing and wonder what self absorbed story I had come up with. *well I'll tell u this now it all happened and it all happend TODAY!... Freaky Friday is what it is !! I'm heading abck to PA tomorrow and back to work on Sunday! so TaTa for now Dream Sweet ~Ann~

whoo hoo August 1, 2007
Current mood: calm

its now the 20 day count down till I return to Alaska for another visit. I'm pretty excited I get to visit family and dance at the fair. I'm hoping to get a bunch of work there also. Today was good, I only had one patient tomorrow I have a couple so far anyway. The sun was blazing down upon on us all day.. it was hotter today than yesterday. *sighs* I was sweating like a person thats hard at work.. I couldn't believe how hot I got!!! After Laura and I finished working on everybody we decided today would be a good day to kayak. So thats what we did. It was fun and the water was very calm and and peacful. we went to both the boundries so we had time to float around and just sun roast. I feel like I'm a lobstor. I'm pretty red on my arms and legs. :P Laura refures to me as a candy cane. LOL :P white and red one that is. The water was so warm that both laura and I had our legs dangling over the side of the kayak :) i'm sure we were a site. after we were done it was so very hot we went into the kid section and waded around, then i took pictures and then we headed back to the house cause the stretching class was starting soon. after stretching (which went over and hour and a half) we came home ate then tried to nap... then we went to the ballet it was really neat.. it was contemporary so it was very interesting to watch. Th dancers were awesome!! Larua and I knew some of the dancers because they came here and got treated. it was cool knowing them on a personal level no just as a audience member. after that got over I've wondered around the room talked on the phone for most of the night.... *becomming a habit every night* lol.. I' think it was a perfect day to start August! well Good Night Dream Sweet Love to All ~Ann~
