Bleah, I hate AIS, or maybe I just really dislike the militaristic mindset of the guys who wrote the book on it. Alas, they were the only ones to address stretching the ilio-tibial band. [/random physiology rant]
Simple Dreamer… I used to get horrifically tight shoulders esp right in that cranny that goes between the scapula and the spine. I found that there are a couple of variations on a really simple stretch that offer relief. Basically, you get a grip on a door handle or a vertical bar, hold your arm straight and bend your legs so that a significant amount of your weight is transferred to your back, arm and shoulder. Depending on the way that you grip the door knob or the bar or the stair case (rotate your hand around), it will stretch those different parts of your back near your shoulder blade. Hopefully that will help.
Another trick that works well for backs, but may offer you shoulder relief as well is to take two dead tennis balls, place them on the floor 3- 3/12 inches apart and lay down on them so that each one is on either side of your spine. Starting either at your hips or the nape of your neck, slowly scoot along the ground, rolling the tennis balls along your back. I’d go an inch, wait a couple of minutes, go another inch, wait a couple of minutes. All told it took about 30 minutes, unless I fell asleep. Sounds and looks dorky, but the end result is fairly worth it.
Again, thanks for the hugznluv folks. Muchly appreciated.
The P is psilent, psomeone else already chose Salix as thier username here.
Psilly boy.
White Ink, I am pretty sure all of Davebear’s girls are in thier 30’s; please send rant when ready. None of us will try to correct you, though you may get some sympathy nods and encouragement.
~grins~ Didn’t you read Psalex’s description, darlin’? When I’m on the balcony…I’m not wearing evening wear. ~winks~
Did you want me to get out of the hottub? My fingers aren’t even wrinkled yet!
I actually have a list…
But of course darlin’
I think it’s more the fear factor than anything…but I’ll let you know soon. ~winks~
~hugs~ It’s alright sweetie, I’ve definitely been there! No forgiveness required.
Hey…I’ll take you up on that offer if she doesn’t! ~winks~
~stands proudly beside mipiace~ 36C here too! With the ghetto booty…geez mipiace…I’m beginning to wonder if we are related…
~agrees with Wyatt’s post to White Ink~
You are still very young darlin’, even if your body tries to tell you different. You need a long period of self reflection, and then I would say that you need to find someone that you can be comfortable with, inside and out. But maybe there’s still more we don’t know. ~hugs~ I hope something we’ve said helps a bit.
psst…Psalex heard you, and you are in T-R-O-U-B-L-E.
Are we talking the same stuff? … Aaron is the only guy who wrote the book(s) … and didn’t strike me as militaristic … I did note that the “first book” on it is on “close out” sale … so maybe that was the militaristic seeming one! Aaron is cool as all get out!
But of course not! If you are, you’ve done a great job of covering up the smell.
No, dear Jaade, Psalex just has this knack, you see, for teasing and teasing, then poof turning her attention elsewhere. I’ll be damned if I don’t find that challenge very alluring!
:: desperately trying to avoid yo-yo eyes ::
Y’know, Jaade, I’ve seen you around here, but I think we don’t know each other all that well. Mind if I join you in the hot tub?
I will gladly tease Rocky’s wankel any time…and will be honored to take over teasing duties when Psalex departs. I will discharge my duties daily with rigor and fervor…I am honored to be chosen as teaser of the Rock! [slurp…birthday’s a cummin’ babe - I haven’t forgotten…]
Well sweetie, we may have to just tag team that baby - besides, given all ouor similarities, we make a nice set of bookends dontcha think?
{Ohhhh man is Houstin/Austin/San Antonio never going to be the same when we hit town!!} I have this weird fantasy (and fear) of introducing you to Studmuffin. If he wasn’t such a bastard I would. Guess he won’t know what he’s missing.
*meek and lowly grasshopper just lets his head spin, trying to keep track of all the going’s on … chanting his mantra … always close your codings — preview is my friend — always close your codings — preview is my friend — …
First Davebear catches my eye, but his dessert was on another menu. Then Wyatt came along, only to get bathed by every Davebear Babe at the party. if6was9 compliments my assets; but the moment I leave the room, he sees double assets and forgets all about me. ** peritrochoid **has the Wankel I so desire, then accuses me of fickle behavior. So close…yet so far.
mipiace and Jaade, you gorgeous mermaids, are the only true loves I have at Davebear’s place. I wasted my time flirting with all these men when there were assets to follow, hair to brush, freckles to count, tummies to rub, and moonlit boobage floating in the hot tub.
I hearby renounce my membership in the Tease the Boys club. I want to play on the girls’ team.
Well darlin’, everyone is always welcome in the hottub, but I wouldn’t want you to be accused of being fickle. We know, all the women here are incredibly skilled at getting and keeping attention, must be getting a bit tough for some of you boys.
I think we make a set of bea-u-ti-ful bookends…~preens~
{~grins~ I see much partying in our future!}
Aww, poor guy, to be denied…it would truly be his just desserts, no?
Psalex, darlin’, it wouldn’t be the same without you. Get in the tub! I have freckles that need counting, and mipiace needs her tummy rubbed.
Ohh, and I love to have my toenails painted…can you make the little flowers??
