Sybil Law – oops, you snuck in there when I wasn’t looking! I like chiropractors, too. My BIL is a great chiropractor. Can’t live without my pills, though.

RxVenomQueen – Yeah, Florida does have a lot to do. And yeah, way too freaking hot.

Winter – Actually, it was only a $30 Timex, so it wasn’t anything fancy. Course, after getting my brakes done, the extra $30 hurt.

I’d get acupuncture before I’d go to a chiropractor any day!
Good for you. It’s good to try stuff other than pills.
Although, some pills sure are fun…

You make it sound worth trying for sure. With the trouble I’ve been having with my back I’m gonna have to look into it. I’m glad it helped you out! Too bad about the watch…

Sounds like that $270 has gone towards things that will be FUN!FUN!FUN! The Busch Gardens & Seaworld are amazing! That is, if it’s not in August. DH & I learned that going to Florida at that time of year is unwise. We melted. We burned. And we sweated. It’s a great place for vacation, though! I’d go back in a heartbeat!
The acupuncture looked like it was a very enjoyable, relaxing experience. One can never pamper themselves too often!

Floatingprincess – I guess I’m not as bad with needles as I thought. I’ve never fainted from donating blood. I still can’t bare to look at them whenever they’re drawing blood or giving me a shot. I almost have to go in a trance to give myself nightly insulin injections. Think I’m getting better about it, though.

My Mom quit smoking with acupuncture years ago, but I don’t think I could do it. Needles and I do not get along, which is why they asked me to stop giving blood in college – they were tired of picking me up off the floor of the bloodmobile. It’s ironic since I’m in the middle of a giant tattoo project, but that’s on my back and I can’t see the needles!

I need new brakes on my Jeep and hubby needs new tires on his Jeep, so I feel your pain. I’m not looking forward to either one!

Stacey – I agree it’s not something you’d tie together, but I walked out a lot more relaxed than when I went in.

I’m still not able to see the connection between “needles” and “relaxing,” but I’ll take your word for it.

Avitable – It’s easy to spend a lot on tires if you need a whole new set.

Nat – Snow tires, yeah, don’t have much call for those in Florida.

Bec – It’s a fine line, isn’t it?

Turnbaby – I’d do it again, for sure.
