Last month when I was dealing with my hurt back, I burned a finger while cooking. My friend said "You should just go to bed and stay there for a while" and my daughter replied "Knowing her, she'd fall out of bed." I have a dream that one day I wont' be so clumsy...

For the dry cracky skin slather your hands with some extra good lotion and tuck them in to cotton gloves while you sleep. Without Burt's Bees, I probably wouldn't have any skin on my hands at all.
Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.

coming in late to this conversation but have to share. I took a really bad tumble off my son's bike a few years ago, broke my middle finger, ripped the nail completely off as well. All a week before hiking rim to rim of the Grand Canyon. My father who was 85 at the time looks at it and says "put a tampon shell over it" I cracked up but that is exactly what a did and it worked like a charm. It wasn't heavy, kept me from banging or bumping it when hiking and it was a pretty pink plastic
of course, I had it taped on my finger so most people didn't know what it actually was.
