I’m Back

Did you miss me? I threw my neck out last week, and couldn’t sit in front of the computer long periods of time.  It was feeling realy good this weekend, then I moved some furniture around my office yesterday, and when I woke up this morning it was stiff again. I’m a little concerned that being on the computer will aggravate it and make the situation worse, but I’m determined to squeeze in some work before Christmas.

As for Christmas, I’m not even close to being ready. I still have shopping to do, which I’m hoping to get done either to today or tomorrow. I did manage to get some baking in before my neck got too bad, and hopefully I’ll manage to get a little more done either today or tomorrow. I must love rushing around at the the last minute because I wind up doing it every year. 

Mood: Up

Music: So Sorry, Feist

   I get that too, Dawn. And at those times it’s so hard just to turn you head or raise your arms. Here’s a trick to help the pain. Fill a tube sock with dry rice and mircowave for a few seconds. Long enough to get it warm. Then wrap that around your neck. It’s very soothing and stays warm for a while. Much easier than a heating pad because you can still be up and around with the heat draped around your neck.
   Hope you’re feeling much better! Merry Christmas!
