Hi Tnny!! Oh and hi to all of you!! I just don't think to stop by anymore and I am sorry to say that. Tnny, I just read your post about your SI joint and IT band and the pain into food/foot . I suggest to stop trying to eat with your fott and your SI joint wil improve like overnight! hahahahaha, sorry, I couldn't resist!
Awww, just like old times!!
Anyways, ironically I have been plagued by that same syndrome and it usually comes form some degeneration of the lumber vertebrae's and discs.. has the PT helped any?
Instead of 2 hour sessions with the MT I would opt for 90 mintues tops but have them more frequently. And,,,, I have found HUGE releif from using a foam roller and with this you can stretch the hip flexors ( I am sure yours are tight) and hip adductors and that darned IT band. It's very cool and it gets into all of the areas and you control the pressure...

So, there you have it!
Does anyone have spring fever? It's been a tough spring here but today was nice and yesterday wasn't all that bad either so my spring fever is starting to appear! It makes me want to dig in the dirt and plant something!
Sloopy is fine, she was in the shop over the weekend to get a new GPS installed. Mine went on strike and darned if tht wasn't included on my 3 year/36,000 miles warranty! So I have a brand spankin new GPS with the updated maps and traffic watch.. a-w-e-s-o-m-e!!

I will try to stop in more often and I keep my eye on you all on Fb. But it really isn't the same on there.

Hi Gemmy!!! <3

Morning Freebies~
Thanks for the heads (or foots) up, Cabby. The PT WAS a big relief- She's got the fingers we call torpedo points and she gets into my flexors, abductors and also digs around my L5/S1 and my SI joint. I've been doing Pilates and that's helped a bit... Gotta get back into it. Stopped in mid March, when I went to Maine for a week or so, and then haven't had a chance to get back to the classroom. Something to do with storms or being on a horse.
I've actually got a foam roller, and some small ***** that work the same way. My one MT only goes for 90 minutes- the other, who can really get in there and work me out, often putting me on my side to work my hip flexors & IT band, we go for 2 hours. It's the only way she can actually get to all my ouchies. I'm currently alternating between the two, once a week.
Thanks for all the advice. I sometimes feel like I could unzip my skin and step out of my body and put on a new skin. OK, a girl can wish, yes?!

Keep the faith- or ...
Peace, love & compost!

YAY MISS MOLLY!!! (but I have to admit...I don't see her new present...?)

HIA FREEBS! I'm off to a family wedding in Texas tomorrow. Not looking forward to this - there's a reason you don't choose your family I guess, because I'd never choose these people. DARN SENSE OF DUTY!!! I promise to do my best not to murder anybody....but I'm only human.

*sigh. Anyway, got lots to do - to include homework/midterm - but I hope you guys have a great weekend!!

I was gonna say, RJ, Miss Molly is sportin' some new shoes! Yahoo! and Happy birthday to Miss Molly and you too! You know, us mom's do *all* the work

X, good luck there with that wedding. Sometimes drinking LOTS of alcohol will create a sense of inner peace- or make you so drunk you just don't give a damned, Scarlett!

OK ~Love y'all- ttfn!

Well hello Akira12. We're so honored you chose our thread for your first post. I'm assuming you've read the first 10 pages and then ever 5th page until your caught up? Plus you've gotten your high school prom picture to post... and I think there is also a cookie donation. <giggle>

TTFN~

Good morning Freebies!

The barista girl has still got it this morning. Very proud of my long shot Americano that actually tastes pretty awesome, considering this is like the third time, in my history of being an unofficial barista, that I've had to make one.

It's pretty flavorful and I am very happy with it.

I hope you all are having an amazing day!

Love and hugs!

RG

YAY Mom!!! Happy birthday from her brand new Freebie Family. Is she going to grace us with her presence here in Freebie World? And will she spill the beans on more wonderfully hysterical Sarah & Brad Stories? Tee hee hee...

Happy 4th to one and all! I'm up in Maine & am planning on going to the local parade, followed that evening with a free concert

Needless to say, I've been eating too much and enjoying too much wine. Yay!

OK, off to conquer the world ~ or at least the Farmer's Market!
