Im admitting my vice...

Well I've always been an open book (to my detrement) & some people have taken advantage of that. But I'm going to share something with you all. My addiction. No I don't smoke, no drugs (unless an occasional Tylenol counts?). No my addiction is expensive but I could never give it up. To think about giving it up, gives me shivers! This addiction cost me between $1,000 a year and $2500. a year. Depending upon how often I need my fix.

Okay are you ready for this confession???? Here goes..... My name is Dixie and My addiction is Massages! Since our studio went digital back in 2000, I spend about 3-4 hours a day on the computer. (some days 8-10 hours!!!) My neck gets tense and my back too. I don't ever get headaches, or stomaches, but boy do I get pain in my neck. I know some good Chriopracters in town and they have their place for sure.

But a good old 1 hour to 1 &1/2 hour massage a week sure does the trick for me!

I go to all different places including SPA BELLA and LOOKING GOOD SPA. I've also gone to the Brook Street Wellness Spa, and independent Jody Blackwell (shes awesome too! 636-9228 <>< ) and Ivanna at Sheppard Air Force Base.Ive had massages while on vacation in Las Vegas (Canyon Ranch) even overseas in Belguim (in the beautiful old hotel next to the pool at night by candlelight) to Jamaica (where I had my first one 16 1/2 years ago.) One of the very best rub downs Ive ever had was next to the Carribean sea on the beach in South America. Everyone should have a massage next to the sea! I cannot believe how many people have never had the pleasure of a massage. Try a HOT ROCK massage too! They are great. And there is nothing like a foot massage and face massage. Heck, when you are short of time, even those guys in the Mall with their little chairs give pretty decent massages (although tell them not to CHOP you! I still prefer a reall massuesse ) It relieves stress and strain and releases the toxins in your body. Its so worthwhile.
Okay, so now you know my addiction. I hope we can still be friends. :-)

Got to run, Ive got one scheduled today right after my 3 mile walk!
Bye
