But the heavy coastal falls brought surprises for some. A caller from the Hunter Valley told ABC radio yesterday that his ducks had never seen rain before, and ran for cover when the heavens opened. - hahaha! Poor duckies.
The rain has cleared. Only a tiny bit on the radar, hasn't rained here for most of the evening. Been an amazing 3 days.
While it would be good if some stormwater could be harvested, if I hear one more person say the water is being wasted, I'm going to punch them out! If Sydney wasn't here, guess where that rain/runoff would be going??? Into the rivers and out to sea! Fancy that. It's called the natural water cycle. And runoff is needed to keep the ground moist, and flush rivers/creeks etc. If you harvested all stormwater, you'd be damaging the environment.

Mainly had one of the student physios, Heidi from Norway. Nick's practice takes students from Europe/US/Canada. Apparently physio students who come down to Oz for work experience are highly sought after when they get home.
She managed to crack both my hips at the same time! That's an impressive feat. My right hip is usually reasonably easy to crack (I can do it myself), but my left hip is really stubborn, even with force. Yet she barely put any force into it and they both cracked really well. Was a bit of a shock, very noisy and hurt a little.
So hate Nick cracking my neck. Apart from it just being very wrong, I'm always freaked he's going to break my neck.
Shoulder/neck still stiff, but seems to be settling down. *fingers crossed*
GP tomorrow, few things to sort out. Including some unpleasantness I'd rather not be there for :\

Been transferring some of my cds to my palm pilot, so have more music for work. Took some trial and error, the instructions in real player weren't straight forward. Was transferring some Mandy Patinkin cds, and I smiled when I saw "with guest artist Kristin Chenoweth". At least I know who she is now!

It is a physiotherapist? I thought they were similar to physical therapists here in the US... recommended stretches and exercises to strengthen and bring balance and flexibility to the body? Your physio's almost sound like chiropractors.
As for the muscle soreness, have you considered getting a massage? Do physio's do that too?
Massage might help to ease the soreness after your visit to the physio. (If I'm out of line I apologize... but being a massage therapist I hate to see people in pain if I can think of something which might help.)

I think there is also a massage therapist at that physio practice, he seemed to be trying to set up a broad range of services (there's also pilates instruction there).
I'm probably going to have to go again on Tuesday. While the neck/shoulder problem is better, I've still got some stiffness and pain down my arm in certain positions. My shoulder is also clicking/cracking like hell.
