I'm tired of cooking/preparing 3 meals a day. It's just the two of us but boy oh boy can that woman eat!! She stays slimish, I get fattish. It's bad enough I do everything here much less start making her one thing and me the other. At times I feel guilty when I buy her fast food cuz of the nutritional value....not to mention I eat it too.
Reading books till midnight sometimes as well. so great I can get any book on my reader in seconds, although prefer actual book.
I hope you feeling better, I rely on good tea with honey and lemon, Tylanol and propolis when I start feeling sick. Usually it works. I hope you are feeling better. I had cold for a few days as well.
But my husband was out of hospital yesterday and ended up in hospital tonight again. For now he is sleeping. Will talk to doctor tomorrow, but they are going to admit him again!
The clips continue to do well when putting on this open to compression socks.
However, I have found that if I let the heal of the sock go completely to my heal, it goes up too high on my lower legs. Man, they must be short. As it says online, don't fold the top of compression socks down. So, the aid that I have to put each sock on with catches the end of the sock out in front. The heal of the sock ends up under the arch of my foot and the socks is completely on at a safe level below my knee. What do I do with what is out front with the clip on it. After taking the clip off, I then fold that part of the sock back onto the front of my foot but below my toes. It is an open toe sock.
Thanks again for the help. It's just taken some experimenting to get this right. ha, ha, I just caught the error of spelling right as write. Happy New Year!
No whine for me today, 🙂, love decorating for Xmas, but I really love the undecorating even more, maybe. So nice fresh new year, some what clean ( clean enough 😜)
Starting to get really dry inside. Got humidifier going in one room and crockpot on low, without the cover on in the kitchen. Hopefully it will help hubbys leftover cough.
Yoda, careful with the stockings. If you can get to medical supply store do that as they are great at correct measurements. You are absolutely RIGHT about not folding them down as they act then as a garter, restricting flow, which can cause clotting. Not used properly they are worse than nothing and better just to get those legs elevated above the heart.
When I had kids developed a vein popping out, bothered me for a few years then never did again. Until I flew in May, I honestly forgot I even had it, then that odd ache came back. Nothing serious, just a little ache. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to wear them the next time I fly?
The way home I sat better and it didn't bother me. Just wondering what anyone thinks.
Eva I have also been thinking of you, and hubby, you are in my thoughts
Properly fitted anti embolism stockings are recommended especially for long flights . As is proper hydration , not crossing your legs . Pumping your feet while sitting to keep blood flowing too .
I also asked my doc about low dose aspirin daily and have taken that starting a few days before a long flight and continued until I returned home .
As for hubby, will see... That's what's been so frustrating, I've been here so many times with him. So far I think he is doing well. He hasn't been going out to his garage much at all. 😆
