Client rights
Laura-- When you placed your ad, did you get permission from your previous employer to use their name in your ad? Or notify them in any way? I've placed just such an ad in the paper and sent out pos…

Benefits of MT for Fibromyalgia suffers
I have a couple of clients that I've been working on for years that have fibro. In one instance, I remember one of them coming in, barely able to walk. She got off the table moving smoothly and easil…

Negotiation
1 Reply
Came across a great little tutorial on how to negotiate, aimed mainly towards women (although, particularly in our profession, I can certainly see its use for men, too). It's mostly about salary/bene…

Shall We Talk Business Cards?
Sam-- Well, it's certainly understandable if it's a stopgap measure, but I wouldn't keep it for good. When you get the scratch, a graphic designer is definitely worth the money. Alternatively, you m…

Marilyn--17 people in 2.5 hours? WTF, lady? O.O Sounds like a T-Rex day to me! (Those are what I call the days when I've done so much bodywork that I feel like my arms are going to shrivel up like a Tyrannosaurus's.)
Keep fighting the good fight, Sam! With the restaurant being so close-mouthed, perhaps now is the time to bring in the media. I can see it now, a nice local interest story, with a picture of the restaurant all over the TV screen. At the very least,…
Bryan, welcome to the group. Goats and other cultish activities are optional, I love your take on meditation, and I think all that is required is the desire to let completely loose once in a while. Or more than once. :D
Sam--from a long history of…
Combine them!
Saturday night, we had dinner with friends under the stars. The fire pit was going, which negated a little of the star watching in that vicinity. The goats were out, and apparently startled the hell out of one of our guests by playing…
For those of you complaining about the heat, we had our first slight frost a couple of days ago. We're going to have to start covering the garden at night, too.
The goats are starting to roam quite a bit, too. We've already caught them noshing on t…
I live in the Colorado Rockies and my boyfriend and I have a small hobby farm. In the summer, we have goats, turkeys, and rabbits, along with a couple of dogs and a cat. Oftentimes, we'll let the goats free range as mobile weedeaters.
Goats like gr…
Glad you guys enjoyed the goat story. I was thinking of putting it over on the "Bloopers" board, and most likely shall.
Lisa--as for saying anything to the gentleman, why bother? You guys have already talked about it and you've let him know it was…
Yay, Choice! Keep up the good work! :)
Marilyn--
Hooray for Poopsie's return! (That . . . kind of sounds a little wrong, doesn't it?)
Re: goats--smart ones are frustrating, but not nearly as much as the stupid ones. We've got a couple that are dumb as stumps, to the point where we keep…
Terry--
It's been a mild summer thus far. I hear the Farmer's Almanac has predicted a short, somewhat wet summer, which doesn't seem to be too far off. The goats have realized that bunnies get fed grain-like stuff and have started breaking into the…
Marilyn--yep, all good. Lawyers traded a couple of letters back and forth and that was about it. I do have to say that I am intensely grateful to the folks at ABMP, though; when my ex-boss began sniffing around and asking questions about my policy c…
Wow, Marilyn. o.O
Um. You could get really bloated and put on a dress and call it good. :D
Wow! What a great pic!
*nod* I started doing the local Ren Faire when I was 16. Wound up with a degree in European History. Sadly, the SCA where I grew up pretty much could have stood for Sexual Calisthenics Anonymous. As I wasn't much into guys 2-3x my age, I never joine…
Steve--a SCAdian, I presume?

I saw that Brenda started a new thread, the chastising one, and I made a response to it. I felt entitled to since it directly quoted me! Right after that it and the earlier thread disappeared. I assume Brenda decided to take her marbles and go home.
Oh well.

- Thanks Erica.
You know what I just noticed? I think those reiki threads disappeared, along with the person who initiated them! Amazing...
