I'm familiar with prednisone as I'm on maintenance cortisone permanently. You have to be very careful because it makes you feel great and hyper and you can overdo it sometimes feeling the pain again when you taper.<br />My goodness how Little Buddy is progressing! <br />I'm feeling a little better about Xmas this year than in recent years. I've started decorating a bit outside with some naturals that I've gathered. It makes it fun.<br />I'm going to have to go back and read what you did to your back now.<br />Oh, I discovered last summer while at my son's (he doesn't have a microwave) that the old fashioned hot water bottle is much nicer, holding a nice even heat for longer.<br />Take care!HollyMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18161858859864895000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787570018101441310.post-5732587952863766432015-11-28T19:57:16.265-05:002015-11-28T19:57:16.265-05:00Mere - So sorry you haven't been feeling well....Mere - So sorry you haven't been feeling well. You must take time to heal (doesn't that sound like a Mother?). It's so hard to just sit and try to be quiet. So proud of LB for standing on his own. I'm sure most of it would be attributed to the love and care he gets. I'm sure he will be running soon. <br /><br />Judy20 North Orahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09215328045988219360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787570018101441310.post-42753306014628290962015-11-28T17:28:29.137-05:002015-11-28T17:28:29.137-05:00I am so sorry about your father.

Wow, your HH is getting BIG.. you're so fast.. my yarn is so thin it's taking forever.. but it's fun. Today I'm boxing up my turkeys and pumpkins and getting started on the big C decorating. I never got my Nativity put away, so it's already up! LOL! I hope your fur-boy feels better. My Buddy worries me how he's aging. OK, miss. Take it easy and get better.

I have taken pain medication and had my nap now it is time to figure out what I want for my lunch. The doctor wouldn't let me have a heat pad instead I have one you put in the microwave. They said I could get burned by the heat pad which doesn't shut off. I just see another bruise. I am so thankful that I didn't break anything. Your buddy is growing and such a cutie. I can see him thinking it was funny to lock momma out of the house. All little ones goes through that. Try to rest you need to take care of yourself. I enjoyed catching up with you.

I know just how it is to have an impulse to keep moving and accomplish things. A difficult impulse to ignore! I made the hitchhiker scarf this summer. It is a fun and pretty project. Sometimes I fell asleep doing it, it was so relaxing, haha!

I'm glad that you're trying to take it easy though with your heat pack. I did pretty well yesterday. I sat and knitted on my mittens with a heating pad on my back for part of the day. And yes, I do believe little buddy deserves his big boy bike. Eight seconds is amazing! I hope Max is feeling better. Our Chloe's acting a little strange this weekend too. Not sure what it is with her. She doesn't seem to want to go down the stairs , which have never bothered her before . Enjoy the rest of your weekend Meredith.
