It stuck in my mind b/c I was turning bright GREEN as I followed the conversation. Time will tell if I'm right. I just hope we don't have to witness any Shenanigans, like the infamous KISS at the Episcoblogger meet-up. All I can say is a part of me will die if that happens. <br />I'm sure you wouldn't want to break your favorite Rhinestone Cowgirls heart, so I expect you to be on your best behavior during her visit. <br /><br />Love you sweetlady. : )Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29373297.post-81542117179148319022011-08-07T13:10:00.216-04:002011-08-07T13:10:00.216-04:00Anonymous - Shhhhhh!!Anonymous - Shhhhhh!!Elizabeth Kaetonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06787552280232329081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29373297.post-46840435822634415312011-08-07T09:55:31.336-04:002011-08-07T09:55:31.336-04:00Maybe Maria can rub those kinks out for you when s...Maybe Maria can rub those kinks out for you when she gets there :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29373297.post-40209650262846714382011-08-06T14:49:10.900-04:002011-08-06T14:49:10.900-04:00Thanks, Brother David.

Ice helps with pain and inflammation, but as a massage it is sometimes easier for folks to get beyond the icy cold pain threshold. Freeze water in paper cups. Tear down the cup to expose the ice and use the rest of the cup to hold the ice. Keep tearing the cup away as the ice melts. Keep the ice in constant motion moving all around the infected area. When the area starts glowing red, stop, the secondary effect has kicked in.<br /><br />Primary effect: numbing and pain relief, reduction of inflammation, vasoconstriction<br /><br />Secondary effect: vasodilatation and increased blood flow bringing nutrition and increased immune response<br /><br />Of course, if you have issues with accepting the help of others, this will set off your boundaries because you need a partner to do ice massage on your back!Brother Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06333089314994730330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29373297.post-86444324863750030052011-08-06T12:06:29.597-04:002011-08-06T12:06:29.597-04:00Amazing how God sends persons or circumstances int...Amazing how God sends persons or circumstances into our lives when we are in need.

When I see unemployment numbers like <a href="http://andrewsullivan.thedailybeast.com/2011/08/91-percent.html" rel="nofollow">these</a>, I think about how lucky I am. I will say a prayer tonight for Charles and his dad. And for countless more.<br /><br />For your back, I recommend stretching and core strength exercises. Some swear by Pilates. I am using a book from the Core Performance series.

Through other folks, usually not of our choosing. "O God, open our eyes to see your hand at work in the world about us." Thanks so much for taking time to share this.
