~Irritated Scar Again~
Rain again today and I FEEL it.. The scar that was
so infected for that year is acting up a tad. It is
my own fault for not keeping it moisturized enough.
I have to be very careful what I use to even wash
I have to be very careful what I use to even wash
my stumps..if I use the wrong soap and then the
wrong lotion, I end up paying for it.. and that's what
happened AGAIN... :-) I just have to spend some
extra time and get it calmed down again. It does
take awhile though.. and I CANNOT use any sort
of soap or wash OR lotion that has any kind of
perfume in it... THAT really makes that scar mad.
It will take a week or so for it to go back to being
ok again, as long as I keep my FINGERS off of it..
I have the hardest time with that, I'm a picker, I
will touch and feel and if a spot somewhere feels
rough I dig at it.. Which is NOT good to do if you
have a spot that's sensitive.. and after all this time
and the crap ive had with this stump you would
think I'd learn by now, but I havent .. I sure hope
I do, I'm tired of it acting up and this time I notice
its really RED and it HURTS ! I used to be awful
with peeling sunburns too.. I cant just sit and look
at it I have to peel it :-)
You notice I'm later today, I have been chatting on
voice with Raife in the UK on SKYPE.. Oprah lately
has been singing the praises of it and I'm surprised
she only just found out about it.. Its great, and its
free. I can talk to any one , PC to PC anywhere in the
world and when my webcam works I can be seen and
whomever I am talking to if they have one, its the
best video call you can make.., The sound is great. I
think the best is the FREE part.. You can call a land
phone if you have some credit which you have to pay
for but the cost per minute per call is amazingly low.
I keep some credit on mine just in case my phone
doesn't work and before I got this bundle from
charter I used Skype for my long distance..not my
phone.
Most of the messengers have this video calling too,
like yahoo or MSN but myself, I think Skype is a lot
better. The size of the picture and the quality of the
call is a lot better.. Plus the messengers get too much
interference and shut you down all the time.. If you
do video calling and don't have it.. try SKYPE.. it is
very good and I highly recommend it.. I'm on there,
so that should tell you tis a good thing :-)
Well, my next good thing? GUESS? :-) YOU know,
FOOD ! :-) Ive not eaten today and I have hungerness..
I think I made up a new word :-) So, anyhoway, its that
time, posting, fooding and sitting in my doorway time.
Oh and my GORGEOUS WEEBLE "I'll be back !" :-)
Y'all have a good one now, Y'hear? love ya and Thanks!
Always, Lois ****
Always, Lois ****
"God Bless You" is my prayer today,
I'm honored to call you Friend.
I pray the Lord will keep you safe,
Until I write again...

Hello Lois.
Back on the computer again.
Keep your stumps moisturized my friend, Becky creases we keep bag balm on them all the time..yet that for animals, but it works real good for human too...and a doc told us to use it.
It rain Friday morning here, then the afternoon turn our real hot.
We dried out our tent in the house....Wednesday night it rained all night on the tent, just Bob and Beth cover got a little wet...those tent windows links...I was in the middle of the tent and stay dry...Had lots of fun even with the rain that night.
I like to go camping again this summer but closer to home.
Camping next to us was a man and his wife...He lost one of his legs...but they sleep in there van...so good to him camping and enjoying life.
So good to be back home too.
God bless you Lois.

My boss uses dove soap for sensitive skin. You can get liquids with 2% lidocaine. There is a bengai with 30% salicylate. I use 30% deet, because it is numbing.
