This Thing Called Life

So much has been going on since I last posted that I'm  not even going to write a long introduction. In fact, I think I may even use a list format so I don't forget anything.
News 1:  I got a treatment room in a Pilates studio so I can work as a massage therapist. I love the room and the people and now all I need are some clients. Originally, I was going to write this big long post about how excited I am, but there is more to say. So, just know that I am super excited and can't wait to have my first client.
News 2: Mr. K is in the hospital. He went in with what we suspected was an inflamed gall bladder, but now I have no idea what's going on. He had an MRI last night and he was supposed to get the results back this morning. Maybe he did, or maybe he didn't. I have no idea because they aren't allowed to tell you anything over the phone. All I know is that they switched him to a different ward. This worries me since he was just moved to the ward he was in. So, now I wait until visiting hours tonight and hope he's okay. I've had some pretty amazing people helping me out with getting to him and bringing him things. They even bought him some TV time yesterday.

News 3: I may have someone to run/cycle/maybe run a triathlon with. Problem is he's got bad knees, his wife is due in September and so both things will restrict him; understandably of course. But, either way, it's good.

News 4: I switched my dissertation topic slightly and now I am focusing on elite, disabled athletes who have either service or guide dogs. I think I may already have a few participants. So, that's good.
There. That's my news. I certainly could have gone into greater detail with any of those topics, but each one in and of itself would be a novel, never mind if I tried to write about them together.

Hoping Mr K is diagnosed and fixed up soon!

How frustrating to have Mr. K in hospital and not know what is wrong. It seems like unless you are there all the time you never know what they are thinking or doing. I hope that gets set to rights soon.

Gosh, I didn't even know you were a massage therapist. A good massage is a real gift (I get one almost weekly). Best of luck.
