This N That...



It's long past due for another post. However, as the last few years have gone by, I've not been out on many photo shoots. So, what HAVE I been doing, you might ask? 

In the last few years, a lot has happened. I lost my Mother - it's always hard to lose a parent...


(I miss you Mom!)


And, on a happier note, I've attended and graduated from massage school. Yes, I am now a Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT). I'm currently working on becoming a Master Massage Therapist (MMT) so I have many more hours of classes to complete. My camera has been on the back shelf.

By the way, if you live near me, here's my massage website: klg.massagetherapy.com

So...if you think changing careers, coming out of retirement to go back to school and taking classes at age 60 - soon to be 61 - then setting up a practice from scratch is crazy, you may very well be right.  But one thing I have learned from this myself is that you are NEVER too old to do what your heart desires!

And, I've had such a feeling of accomplishment having finished the initial school, more of an accomplishment to have received my license, and the best accomplishment helping other people feel better and pain-free!

Now, while I pursue my Masters, in between classes, I work in my very own little studio giving massages, facials, and wraps. I converted the little house behind my own home into the perfect little massage studio. It has everything I need.








Nope, life around here is never dull or slow. And, even with all of that, I still even get to have a little fun here and there...like  traveling back to my beloved Mexico to do a little shopping and spend quality time with dear friends.









... In fact, NOTHING was going to keep me down! :)








Life is too short to let the small stuff keep you down. So get out there and reach for the stars. Laugh whenever you can, because life isn't always a bowl of cherries - sad, but true. Make the most of your life! (Like making crazy videos of yourself acting silly for your granddaughter)





That's all for now. Until the next time I pick up my camera...
