O.K. I know this is a no-brainer, but this type of weather is a perfect time for us to truly hibernate. No excuses necessary. I plan on staying off my feet in between making my house smell good with the cozy smells of cooking and baking. (I haven't decided just what is on the menu yet!)
Stay safe, my friends!

Good plan Christel. I am just getting ready to head out to work. I have a little running around outside first thing today but then I have been pretty clever lining up warm inside places to work for the next few days. Got the electric gloves heated charged up too. How is the leg doing?

Jeff, I had hyperbaric treatment #40 on Monday with a wound evaluation by the doctor. It is now time to submit that data back to my insurance company to request more visits... Eeks! Should be obvious I would benefit from more visits, but who in the heck knows what will happen. I may need to get my persuasive side out again!

Nancy, So when are you going? We have a place reserved for early March, if I don't turn into an icicle by then!

Great news! I was approved for another 32 visits to the hyperbaric chamber! It took a couple of phone calls inquiring as to the status of the request, but I made my good results known to the folks there. It was probably not all bad to have the last few days off, anyway, as the temps were downright dangerous! Hope you all are also able to look forward to the 'heat wave' with temps in the teens and low 20's this weekend!

Brrrr brrrrrr chattter chatter! Its 17 here and we are getting warnings for the overnight temps to be of danger! I havent been on much, been sick...first with sinus infection, now a cold/flu? (I had a flu shot). It has taken the strength out of me! I have been staying in for the most part, last time out was a week ago, I think...eating lotsa homemade chix soup, lemon tea with honey, Turmeric tea, which tastes aweful! Its been about 5 days since the onset so, It may be a few more days...i dunno...I just hate winter!
hard to see the forum on my ipad mini :-(
Take care Nancy...

Yes cold! I use the hand warmers daily in the house. The other day it leaked and had charcoal everywhere! What a mess!! But I will take it every once in awhile to stay warm.
Question...my skin is braking at the nail....just a little. Wondering if that is the hot pack too hot. Or sd kicking in. Or just chapped hands. Any thoughts? Went to pulmonary last week....yes I too having health issues for a month or so...and he kept checking the hands, didn't say anything and silly me didn't ask! He is the on who diagnosed my sad.
