    Sue,
    Try getting one of those bath loofah type scrubbies or loofah washcloths and scrub down with some hair conditioner or some moisturizing bath lotion in the hot shower. You may be good for a week of soft flake-free smoothness afterwards.

    if that doesn't work mix up some salt (regular table salt works or if you want a coarser scrub use sea salt) mix it with some oilve oil and scrub it on while in the shower. sloughs off dead skin, hydrates and makes you feel all soft. you can add oils to the mix to make it smell pretty too.

    I swear by the Aveeno oatmeal products - body wash, lotion, oatmeal bath packets.... Haven't had any dry skin or excema since I started using it two years ago.

    I HATE cold weather

    Anything below 65 is cold. I prefer to wait until it gets warmer. Or, I grab the spin class at my gym.

    BUT, when I do ride in the cold I have booties for my feet - if my toes are cold, I'm miserable. Black booties and black tights - makes you look like an elf. With a BIG WHITE HEAD.
