Product Rec

I don't often make direct recommendations for products online, mainly because I believe everyone should do their own research and try things out. I'm going to make a rare exception today because I've had such success with the product, and I think it can definitely help others with arthritis in their hands.

I have trigger finger as well as moderately severe arthritis in both hands, and I can now actually dislocate one finger at will by moving it the wrong way. That's why I was looking for some finger braces that would shore up my damaged joints but still allow me to move and curl my fingers. I invested in VOCOSTE 10 Pcs Breathable Finger Sleeves, Thumb Braces Support Elastic Compression Protectors for Relaxing Pain Arthritis Trigger Finger, Gray, which cost $12.99 for ten at the time I wrote this post on June 1st.

From the moment I put them on I knew they were exactly what I needed to help support my joints. They're lightweight, snug without cutting off circulation, and allow me to still bend my fingers. The extra support helped reduce my pain quite a bit, too.

Here's how they look on the two problem fingers of my working hand. I am really happy that I bought these sleeves, and I'll probably invest in another set to have backups. Available on Amazon.com.

Thank you for the recommendation. I'll look into them. I've been looking for something similar at CVS and Walgreens, but they're all so clunky.

Love Means This

Invested in a couple of hand-dyed bundles from one of my favorite fabric artists. This one said "Make me into something for Valentine's Day." So I went for a quilted and embellished tote. I kept thinking about what love means to me as I worked on it. Here's the finished tote. Although I was tempted to embellish with beads and pins, I got sick and only felt well enough to do a little stitching every night. As I worked I thought about how often love seems disappointing to us, especially when it fails to live up to our expectations. But now that I've experienced love in many forms, I can say that it's made me a better person than I might have been without it. Love is a precious thing, and should be appreciated in all its forms. I am very grateful for the love of my guy, my child and my friends who have stuck with me all these years. That's you two, in case you're wondering. :) Also finally found something to do with a ve...

Other Stashes

Along with clearing out the spare bedroom and tidying my office and our guest bedroom, I decided to reorganize some of my stashes. This is all the yarn I have on hand, sorted by color. It looks like a lot, but lately I've been using up a minimum of half a bin every month, so this is approximately a year's supply. All of my solid color cotton perle thread. I go through a lot of this every year, too. I need a container in which I can fit all of it together, but I haven't found the right one yet. I won't show you all of my fabric -- I'm still reorganizing this stash -- but I went through everything and donated two bins of fabric I won't need to the local quilter's guild.

Store Closing Haul

The mega Books-A-Million store over in Sanford is closing, and offered an extra 20% off on their current stock -- all sales final -- so I went over to do some shopping. Safely but sadly there was no one in the store but me the entire time I was there. The Holly Jackson novel is for Katherine, the Halloween board book is for Oliver, and the copy of Garden Spells is to keep on hand because I give that book to everyone. The rest of the books are for me. I love Anne Cleeves, and the Galbraith novel sounded interesting (the first couple weren't, but I'm willing to take another chance.) The Escape Room is by a new-to-me author, plus it was cheap. The GreenCraft mag is just a guilty pleasure. Hopefully the smaller BAM nearer to me won't close. I don't buy many books from brick-and-mortar stores these days, but that's really the last one within reasonable driving distance.
