Yes, I look out there and think, maybe I can just have two.

Yes, I would have to rely on my son helping me clean.

That was the first thing I saw when I looked. Very similar to yours. I didn't want to say anything...

Your skin looks dry. Wish you had some coconut oil to rub on it. It's supposed to have antibacterial properties and good for skin problems.

I do have some. I will try it

But..but..just cleaning for two. ! !

 

[BigBlueHen53]

yes I tried the lotion. Its a little bit painful

I make my own ointment, mixing cocoa butter (which is very healing but hard) with a little coconut oil, which is also healing but soft. Sometimes I put a few drops of lavender essential oil in it and a few drops vit E oil or olive oil. Mix well! (Immersion blender works great!) This softens the cocoa butter so your skin can absorb it. My DD is visiting from out of state. She had a fairly fresh 3" burn on her forearm. I put this on it TWICE and it's already practically invisible! Is great on dry skin.

Maybe come spring. Keep them until fall.

ever think about quail? They seem easier to take care of and if they are too much we could always eat them.

 

[BigBlueHen53]

maybe, Its on both legs though in the same places

Not shingles then. Shingles only on one side of the body.

 

[Cynthia12]

I have no idea why my skin is so dry, all over! I never had this problem until about two years ago.

You can see my sock lines fading. They were deep. Water..I tell ya...I drink water and it stays in me. Not on the outside though.
