The massage class was wonderful. I was partnered with a woman with exactly the same sense of humour as mine... a recipe for disaster. We both got the giggles because I just cannot get the "hacking" movement right. That's the one where you hit the thigh gently with the side of your hands, alternating hands - or in my case, hitting twice with the left hand for every once with the right and getting totally out of sync. I'd never make a drummer! And then when it was her turn to massage me, it tickled so much we were both in stitches - especially when I nearly slid off the couch! Do you think they'll ever make a professional masseuse of me? But as well as the laughter therapy, which was superb, I got a really good massage.. and because we all want to keep practising, when we are told to do a particular movement three times, we lose count and do it several times over! I'm sooooooooooooooooooo relaxed. (The one male on the course went home looking VERY relaxed as, strangely, everyone seemed to want to volunteer to practise on him!)
And now to bed, secure in the knowledge that neither boy will wake me as they're over at Grandad's overnight. I sat all three of them down to give them their instructions this evening so maybe we won't have the same performance we had last week. Well, we can but hope!
