BABIES!

Babies are popping out everywhere! Today my niece was born! She weighs 8 pounds 4 oz. And she is 21 inches long. I am so excited for my brother Zane and I cannot wait to meet the newest addition to the Ewton family.

The picture to the left is one that Zane took of baby Ewton. There is talk that her name will be Maggie. The name sounds amazing. Even Rod Stewart made that name sound cool.
(nothing against Rod).

Seeing the pictures of my niece just makes me even more excited about my baby. Monday is our next check-up. Sadly it is not the one that we found out what sex our baby is. That check-up is four weeks away. I cannot wait for it. Someone asked me if I knew what we were having and I smartly responded, "A baby... But a monster would be cool too!" Hopefully I didn't jinx myself and this kid won't be a little terror. Even if it is, I still can't wait.

Casey

Casey Ann Pack. Gorgeous. Funny. Smart. Just a few things to define her but certainly not enough. Casey and I met last August and we started dating then. Head over heels for this girl. She is amazing. She does so much for me and notices all the little things.
I Love this girl.
We have so much fun together just doing nothing. It is so awesome to find someone like her. Which is awesome, because we are having a baby! We found out the first week in November that she was pregnant. Right now she is 15 weeks and 6 days. We find out what sex the baby is in 4 weeks and we can't wait!This was our first ultrasound at 6.5 weeks. That is our little Shreeve peanut!

Stay tuned for more adventures!

High-Five Client!


Today I had the opportunity to work with a client of mine. My client is a good person that likes to run. Because my client likes to run in marathons, my client also likes to receive massage. And that is why I got to see my client today.
Lately I have been kind of down about Massage Envy. So many changes going on and so many people upset by it. I am a fairly open person that likes change, at least I tell myself that. With all of the changing going on I have been looking for another part-time job. I have been looking since about August, shortly after I left Precision Muscle Recovery. I have had several interviews and missed out on several great jobs. All because one thing; not enough experience. That has hurt my pride quite a bit.
Today when I saw my client I was feeling kind of bummed again. But my client, and I will send them a 'thank you' letter, gave me more reason to keep my head up. My client has been with M.E. for years and was always bounced back and forth between the not-so-great and the too-good-for-M.E. therapists. Because of that my client was going to give up on receiving massage... Until I worked on them.
Not only did that boost my mood but it also brought my confidence back up! High-Five client!

This year I gave out $2,180 worth of FREE massages! I must be crazy. That's one massage a month for four people! Geeze. If only I had my clientele base to that. Sure it is only $45 for one session, but that's $180 a month! Time to get back to work!
