Have to make this short. Son and his girlfriend will be here soon to take me to see the Grandkidlets in Louisville - where we'll finally be able to celebrate Christmas. The g'kids were sick in December, and I couldn't be around sickies because of the recent spine surgery.
Not looking forward to a 4 hour drive packed in pillows, but happy to go. Neck brace in place. CPAP packed. Yeah!!
Just added a new page to my gift store and FR*E classes to the Links for Writers page at my website. Enjoy!
Check out The Review Hutch for comments about a thank you I recently received.
Off to the shower, where I'm allowed to take off the neck brace ...

Zero Degrees and Snow, Oh My Aching Joints
It is ZERO degrees today in central Ohio - with 5 inches of snow. The cold makes me ache. However, today I'm not quite so hateful toward this neck brace. Why? Because it keeps my neck warm.
I'll be guest blogging at Renee' Barn's new blog for the newly po' next week. Will post the link here. Renee' and I know what it's like to have extra money and to have none at all. She's made it her passion to help those who are now finding themselves among the "middle class" or below for the first time in their lives because their fortunes that were "on paper" have evaporated, their homes are worth less than they owe on them, and they're shopping at WalMart instead of on Rodeo Drive.
While I'm ignoring housework except for the kitchen and bathrooms, mostly because my Very Cool Dude neurosurgeon has forbade me to do most things, I've been working on my website and online store every day. Because it is ZERO degrees outside, I've chosen to lighten my load by thinking "SPRINGTIME!". Check it out: http://tinyurl.com/9tht3h
Hubby has sworn to get me out of the house tomorrow - even if it is to go to Walgreen's to pick up refills of my prescriptions. I'll be using my wheelchair to ensure that I don't fall on the ice and break the new construction in my spine.
Having been a "tummy" sleeper my whole life, with several grandchildren to prove this is hereditary, I'm now, at 56, having to learn to sleep on my back or sides. The neck brace pushing against my cheeks and jaw have caused me to bite both sides of my tongue. This makes eating anything hot very uncomfortable.
I'll be adding "Home Fragrance" to my online store today. Probably to help kill the smell of our only-use-as-a-last-resort-kerosene-heater that is plugging up my sinuses. Go to www.lindajhutchinson.com and select "Enter Gift Store" from the menu on the left to check my progress.
