Day 81

Russ is off getting a deep-tissue massage to help relieve some of the tension that is a constant problem in his back. Karen told me about a therapy called 'trigger release". When our backs go out, it is not always the spot that actually hurts that's the problem. There is a therapist coming over in the next few days to show me the trigger spots for Russ' upper back so that I can work on him daily to get his back to relax.

There is a big tree outside that has a small fruit on it. It belongs to the fig family but the fruit doesn't really taste like anything. But the fruit bats love it. I can hear them outside screeching at each other as they go after the fruit. These aren't the little cute bats we have at home. These things look like they could haul away a good sized cat!
