Icy hot?

In other news….I started seeing this new Chiropractor recently….who rocks -

This morning….he's working with the usual suspects…hips, neck and shoulders…..he applies this gel stuff….kind of an icy hot deal? Anyway….it was okay….no big deal…calmed down by the time I left….he tells me to be careful about getting too warm that it could re-activate the gel and get really uncomfortable. (You know where this is going right?)

So…I go about my morning running errands and whatnot….then at noon, I rush out to Pure Barre for a class. (I started this last week - you've got to try it, really!)
Things are fine as we warm up and start doing our thing….and I remember the gel. No warmth or anything…so I'm thinking this aint no thang!

Then we move to the mats.

Once pressed up against a polyurethane -or whatever- mat while sweating out an ab workout…..suddenly my lower back and shoulders are burning up! (Think Hunger Games people!)

The gel is coming off somehow and trickling down between my shoulder blades along with my excessive sweating due to the workout and my back suddenly catching fire!

I'm trying to suck it up and just get through to the end without crying like a little girl while hopping around flapping my hands like an idiot…..

Finally it's over and done - I bolt to the lobby and just about tear my purse in half trying to find a stray, old diaper wipe to try and get what's left of the gel off of me….

I have never been so happy to see a Kirkman flushable wipe in all my life!
