I love getting a massage. I think there are few things that make you feel better and more relax than a massage. Yesterday Mary Beth and I went to Spa Sydell for one. I got the deep tissue type.

As I end each month, not only do I calculate my income (very important to make sure I can pay the rent!), but I consider who is making appointments to see me and why .

Brett - Sheer Balance
by Brett BlumenthalI finally got to go on my vacation. And believe you me, it did my body and mind lots of good…in many ways. Besides the fact that I was dislodged from my computer for a prolonged amount of time, relaxed, caught up on sleep and sipped tropical drinks poolside, I indulged myself with two massages.
