My hair looks great but my back/hip problem is still keeping me awake at night. Aneta decided I needed to see a masseuse who came highly recommended. The trouble was Aneta didn't get good directions and we drove around Knurow for an hour looking unsuccessfully for the salon. Finally, after several swings up and down the boulevard, Aneta stopped and got directions. We found the salon but the person we were going to see was no longer there-as in not working there any longer! We did get a phone number and called her and finally after winding our way down backstreets and torn up alleys we found the salon in a lovely building well hidden from public view.
The masseuse was a beautiful young woman who chatted amiably throughout my therapeutic treatment. I have large red bruises on my thigh to prove this was therapeutic and not esthetic massage! It hurt and then felt wonderful but it didn't do a single bit of good for my hip pain at night. It was so late by the time we finished at the salon that the cinema was out again this week. I had acquired a head cold a couple of days ago and it was getting worse by the hour so we picked Ania up at her grandparents and headed home.
Before the massage Aneta's English student came and spent an hour learning pronunciation from
me. When she left she paid Aneta 40 Zloty for the lesson and Aneta promptly handed it to me. I refused to accept it of course but the gesture was nice. After the student left Aneta's friend, Ania, stopped in for a visit with her 8 month old son, Timon. This Ania is an HVAC
Engineer and speaks very good English so I actually felt like I had a decent visit for a change. Ania is one of Aneta's oldest friends and a beautiful and intelligent woman. It was a pleasure to get to know her a little bit.
My cold is much worse and I am easing in for an early night.
