Hi guys
Thanks so much for your wishes of luck.
I was sooo nervous. All went well though I think, he said that I could put some music on in the room next time and that will also help me slow down a little as I finished the treatment 10 minutes earlier than I should.
I explained that as he was the "Boss" I was pretty nervous, and I didn't realised that their treatments were supposed to last 45-50 minutes. Mine usually are 35 mins. He said that with the music it keeps you at a slow speed and he reckoned that next time it would then fill the missing 10-15 mins.
I think he was happy, he said it was relaxing and nice, so fingers crossed.
He asked for me to have a few goes this week on friends and family practicing extending the treatment to 45-50 minutes and then he will book me in for some sessions next week onwards :j:T
He also asked about the Reflexology and I said I am now treating people, so I think I may have some sessions of that coming on too.
Sooo glad that is over. I was super nervous. Hopefully it didn't come across to much in my treatment.
Been to the shop with the kiddies and bought our meals for the week, now to get changed and make an applique cushion that's on order.

Thanks First Trouble,
Its great when you have paid off a debt, and I am with you where you just want it closed and gone.
I closed down the Barclays account, but I am wondering if they actually really have now as they keep sending Balance Transfer offers with our account number on it :mad:.
Might have to look into that one.
I would phone them up and insist on a letter stating that your account has been closed. Just ask what would Dave Ramsay do?!;)That voice in your head that says you can’t do this is a LIAR!
