It's so friggin' cold. If I stand close to an exterior wall I can feel the cold radiating into the house. As you can see here, the fur bearing creatures in the house don't seem to be affected. :o) Hobo has his AND Sammy's bones in the bed on the floor, Petey has my spot in the comfy chair. I'm sitting here freezing my tush off at the computer by the front window. Brrrrr!!!
I swallowed my pride and went to the doctor this week about my neck. It was feeling better for a couple days then I woke up earlier this week in excrutiating pain. I couldn't find any position that didn't cause stabbing jabs that went from my neck to my shoulder blade deep down inside on the right. My family doc prescribed some muscle relaxers and steroids and recommended a chiropractic treatment. I was lucky to find one near home who would take me in that afternoon. By bedtime I'd say I was at least 50% improved, and now 24 hours-plus later I'm at 90%. I don't know if it's the meds or the chiro, but I'm not waiting two weeks next time this happens!
it's frigid here, too! the wind is blowing, snow falling, it's a mess.
those two have the right idea. napping.

So glad you're feeling better! My mom swears by those chiropractic treatments. And yes, the cold is seeping into every corner of our house, too. We need more insulation!

Just discovered your site. Very interesting. About the pain in your nect, did you think about changing your pillow to a larger size. This helped me very much and, sometimes when i do too much knitting, I sleep on a couple of pillows.
Sounds like you are having bad weather or at least you did.....
Its 65 here today November 16, 2010........ Hope to read more on your site soon........ pleasant dreams
