tale of the fat masseuse

I (and bacon) are now officially certified masseuse – we have a Diploma in Indian Head Massage (IHM) that says so!

The class was quite cool, other than the fact that it was held in a really dodgy part of town – fairly close to the Leeds jail. It was a little too short for my own liking, but fairly comprehensive with details on a need to know basis – I have seen coursework of someone who went to a 6 month certification period for IHM – they did not even start touching the head until week 4 or 5! As the UK is moving towards the litigation-happy attitutes of the States, there are pointers on conducting consultation to ensure that client are ok to be massaged – and also information on getting a practictioner’s insurance,which will indemnify you in case you break your client’s neck.Choy.

So anyway. It has been quite interesting, and I plan to do more classes on alternative therapies like such.Of course I got a hammering from my mom who see no point in me doing courses like these unless I plan to become a massage parlour girl – with all it’s red light conocations. I think probably next on my list would be either swedish massage or aromatheraphy massage. It will probably be a year-long course so we shall see when the school term starts in Sept. It would be quite nice to run a little business from home providing treatments ect. With tarot reading. And jewelry selling. Yes, I do keep myself very busy indeed.

Of course my business plan still need to be redefined, but at the moment I am looking for help in creating a brand. Branding is very important,and alas, I suck big time in it. Anyone nice enough to create a logo for me or think of some name I can trade under?

Oh, my no-carb plan crashed and burned so badly over the weekend. Dinner at Kasa Rosa on Friday, chinese buffet on Sat and ended up with a lip-smacking Thai buffet on Sunday. I am now back to two-egg-one-carrot diet for today. Countdown – 12 days left to ibiza.

It’s really just one of those things that happens. You are taking your family away for a long awaited holiday – some family fun time at last. Your motorhome breaks down as soon as you get there. Well, you do not need to fret, motorhome repair people are always at hand to help you out. Now you can still enjoy your holiday without fretting about the state of the motorhome!

You’re in London. The big smoke. Or smog in the case of London. Big fat grey cloud even. Your beloved mom is a New Yorker that would not budge an inch. With Mother’s day coming, maybe it is time to start looking for vendors that do Mother’s Day Flowers in New York.

Just one day in the year, show your old mom how much you appreciate her! Go on, you know you want to show her how special she is and how thankful you are to her.

What are the best shoes womens wear? It might range from the lovely straw espardrilles,groovy wedges and ballet flats (or pumps) and super skyscraper high stilettoes. As for me, I prefer the lowly sandals…preferably very opened-toed and comfortable. I love being barefoot as well, but love shopping for shoes and own one too many pairs of very colourful sandals and slippers
