May Goings On:

*      May the 4th was National Star Wars Day. You know, May the 4th be with you?

*      May the 5th was Cinco de Mayo, but even so, I don’t recommend mayo on your taco.

*      Tomorrow, May 7, the first Friday in May, is No Pants Day. Getting a massage is a great way to celebrate!

*      May 8 is World Naked Gardening Day. If you have that sort of privacy in your garden, why not get your next massage in your garden before the weather gets too hot? House calls are only another $30.

*      May 9th is Mothers Day. You still have a couple of days to get her something. How about a massage gift certificate? BTW, did you know I offer prenatal massage?

*      May 10th is my 35th wedding anniversary.

*        I’ll never get through this if there’s something happening every day!

*      May is Melanoma Awareness Month. It’s time to stock up on sunblock.

*      May 30th is Memorial Day. I’ll be out of town the whole week-end, and I hope you find a good way to spend the long week-end too!

 

New Summer Supplemental Newsletter:

*      A NEW special full-color Summer Supplement is available HERE as a PDF file.

A Salute to Moms Everywhere

A few short weeks ago, we were convinced that my 94 year old mother-in-law was knocking at Death’s door. Agnes was lethargic, narcoleptic, sluggish, and we thought that she had pretty much decided to pack it all in. But she fooled us all.

 

Rather than knocking at Death’s door, she rang Death’s doorbell, and then ran off giggling to hide in the bushes.  Again.  She keeps doing that. It never seems to get old, and Death always falls for it and answers the door. It may be part of her overall strategy: by the time she is really serious about passing on, Death isn’t even going to come downstairs. He’ll just yell out the window, “Ha ha. What? Do you think I’m stupid? You kids get off my lawn!”

 

To make a long story short, after two weeks in a rehab hospital to get her blood sugar, thyroid, and blood pressure under control, she is back to her feisty old self again.  “I’m ready to lick my own weight in wildcats!” she says. I hope she doesn’t try it, because that would cause quite a hairball.

 

She did have to move from an assisted living facility to another that offered skilled nursing care. Which involved a lot of furniture moving and consolidation, paperwork, etc, etc, the result of which is an extremely abbreviated newsletter this month. We all gots our priorities, right?

 

Agnes has put up with the increasing indignities and inconveniences of aging with good cheer and grace, never complaining, and never losing her sense of humor. She has been my mother-in-law for 35 years, and I can’t imagine having a better one.

 

So thanks to ALL the moms in my life: Agnes, my wife Ann, my mom. Where would the human race be without moms? (If Dads had to bear children, let me tell you, everyone would be an only child!)

 

If you still have not recognized the moms in YOUR life, it’s not too late to get them some massage gift certificates.  You can buy them by phone, in person, or online. Everyone loves the gift of touch, and who deserves it more than your various moms?

Note: the discounts described in this program are currently scheduled to end on December 31 of 2010, although if we are still fighting a recession at that time they might be extended. After June 30, 2010, discounts will only apply to appointments during “office hours:” before 6pm Monday through Friday and before 1pm on Saturday. So please take advantage of these discounts while you can!

            Here’s a reminder about all the free stuff that’s available with your massage.  Just ask for it!
