Heating Pad
My physiotherapist recommended I get a heating pad and use it on my shoulder for 15 minutes before doing my exercises. He said it will relax the muscles. He told me to put an ice pack on it after but I haven't tried that. I can see us using this heating pad for neck, back, knees, and other muscles, it is so comforting! It was $25 on Amazon.

Friday Art - Owl and a Scare
Welcome to Friday Art! This cute owl showed up on my laptop screensaver and I decided to sketch him for you today. It is an ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") in watercolour pencil.
Linking to Nicole's Friday Face Off and to Gillena's Art For Fun Friday.
Well I had a scare on Nov 6 when I went for a routine physical. The doctor found a 1 cm lump in my left breast. She ordered a mammogram and breast ultrasound. The clinic was able to do the ultrasound that same day but that mammograms were booked up to March/April. I would be put on a waiting list unless they found something.
On Nov 10 they called to schedule my mammogram that day. Was I scared. I sent an email to my doctor yesterday (Nov 13) asking what would be my next steps after getting the results. They replied that same afternoon saying the ultrasound and mammogram results were normal!
We celebrated with a nice dinner.
