Lordy...2009 is upon us and I don't mind a bit. Mind you 2008 was a pretty good year. Met new people, traveled a bit, enjoyed some down time, worked on 'moi' in various ways...working out, spiritual, work/business and generally just doing more things that felt good to little ol' me. No wonder I feel pretty good these days. Funny how you can still have time for all kinds of stuff even if you are taking (what some label 'selfish') more time for yourself!

I've had more fun discovering things I used to do and new things to try. I'm only recently working on getting rid of the 'fear factor' that seems to be an over-extended guest in my house. Not always in the way, but irritating just the same. I believe it has kept me from doing things I believe I'd like to do! What the hell? Anyway - I decided to work on telling more and more of my fears or 'hesitations' to TAKE A HIKE and it seems to be working. Granted it's a process, but what isn't??

Ah....the soothing benefits of my Deep Heat Ointment! I found out again just why I love this stuff so much, after shoveling last week. The first snow...in our case almost 2 feet, was enough to get the blood flowing while shoveling even the shortest driveway! I always have enjoyed shoveling...as much as I enjoy cutting the grass. Must be that sense of seeing it get done before your eyes - I also enjoy the outdoors too, so it's a win-win for me!

My Deep Heat Ointment soothes and relieves pain. Many use it regularly for arthritis and various aches and pains and it really can help those who have a hard time with simple daily tasks! Bottom line this stuff works!!! Pain reliever, muscle soother, increases range of motion, speeds healing to any and all muscle, tendon, ligament and skin injury - I can't imagine not having this in my herbal medicine kit. I also use it as needed when I spend too much time at the computer to loosen tight shoulder and upper back muscles. It has a hot/cold feeling when used and has the natural scent of pure wintergreen essential oil. Check out my site on the right -for this and other goodies.
