i do not have much to post today as i am feeling quite a bit under the weather. but this blog has been a little bit neglected in the last few weeks and i am determined to bring it back to life. so, just a quick note about an old friend...when i was in college i decided i would buy a heating pad. my mama had one and my grandma had one and i figured there was a good reason. i was right. nothing beats it for sore muscles and aches and for a quick warming in winter. i can't brag enough about it. actually, i was just thinking of what to write about it, and i love it so much that it sounded ridiculous, so...
this is the heating pad i bought which came with a hideous synthetic cover. i immediately decided that cover just wouldn't do for me. i bought some cozy flannel and made a new cover. years later, it is well-loved and worn in. i have been using it today for my back which hurts from boxing on wii. seems i can avoid looking ridiculous today, huh?

I think it must be possible to catch something over the internet. It's not fair that we are both feeling icky. booooo to being sick. Feel better soon. HUG.
The cover is so cute. Makes me want to make a new one for my heating pad. Hope you get to feeling better real soon. Love to all.

Sorry to hear about your sore back but I'm with you, there is no better comfort for sore muscles than a good heating pad. I inherited my first one from my father-in-law when he passed on and wondered how on earth I had done without it for so long. It too had a hideous cover that had to be replaced. I had some red plaid flannel in my stash and made a new cover from that, I know it's unbelievable but I swear they work better with pretty flannel covers.
My current pad has a cover made from a men’s flannel shirt, it was inspired my Martha Stewart making pillow covers from men’s shirts.
