i did not know i was this close

for $9725
and four weeks of full time school
I can be a (trained) massage therapist

then I would probably need to test for national certification.

then I can start the process of "leaving the construction world".
I want a new start in part because
in much the same way that federal poverty programs decimated the family,
and the "protect all plants" policy has put our forests at risk,
over engineering and wildly strict codes have ruined building.

I just like to rub people's sore muscles and make them feel better
if I get paid for it, THAT is too cool.
