Then touch each ear to your shoulder. Do that 10-20 times. Then turn your head all the way to the right and then to the left. Do that 10-20 times. It is that kind of thing with every joint. They did it to music. I do mine to the morning NPR news. If I did that, they'd have to take me away on a stretcher. Not sure if I'd be going to the hospital of the morgue. :-) We have so many people in the group with spine damage, I wouldn't tell anyone how to exercise their neck. My sister is physical therapist and she told me to never rotate my head like that. She said it should be safe to gently place my head on one shoulder a few times, and then do the same on my the other side. I've had stiffness in my neck since I was a kid. You're so correct about your neck. Wow, that would be profoundly foolish. Thanks to doing my daily stretches and walking, I can do the Hokey Poky and turn myself around, but my neck isn't allowed to play anymore :-) I haven't heard the Hokey Poky in a long time. Now I'm off to the office. I wouldn't go in at all this week as I still have three weeks holidays coming for this year, but I've lots of work to do and called a board meeting for tomorrow night. I'm gonna go home in February. I haven't seen my kids since July of 2009. I was just wondering if you would be able to see your kids and grandbabies soon. Well, several of them aren't babies any longer. <smile> What is your MIL up to these days?
