Another Monday another entry
Feb. 22nd, 2010 05:30 pmThe past week hasn't been that kind to me in terms of aches and pains. The arthritis has been acting up pretty bad. Worse than it has in a few months. Some morning it's been a struggle to get out of bed in the morning from the pain. Left shoulder, neck, lower back, and fingers seem to be where it resides. The dry air has been wreaking havoc on the skin of my right hand the left hand is mostly unaffected by cracking, pealing, and bleeding skin. I wonder why that is? My left hand looks normal but my right looks horrible.
On a similar note the past couple weeks I've had a wound on my left palm. Curious circular pattern with three small straight line breaks of skin. It's right in the center of the palm too. I believe it's from opening bottles combined with the dryness of the air. I've been avoiding opening bottles as much as I can and it seems to be getting better so we'll see. I've been using a 40 year old jar wrench to open screw on lids I just have to open. I looked at a few stores Saturday for a tool that'd work better but none had anything. Which struck me as odd. Ended up ordering something form Amazon that evening. Don't know if it'll be any good since I have only a vague idea what it looks like from the picture of it in its packaging.
I also went looking for a few pairs of sweatpants to replace the rags that were once sweatpants when I bought then in 2003. I tried Wally World, Target, and Kohls. Wal-Mart had some sweatpants but the sizes they had started at XL and went up from there. Target had nothing and Kohls had some really thin things they were calling sweatpants with prices starting around $20. Far too expensive. Where do people buy sweatpants these days? I'm obviously looking in the wrong places.
I have a few more things I could say but need to run for now. I'll probably post some more later. Hope everyone is well.
