Well here we are at Friday. Seems that as the world turns it's time to prepare for long johns. Yes it's that or this ointment called Zostrix which heats but burns and if you place it on your hands I always make sure that I wash it off - but does it heat up say for example the bones - yes.
But I have learned one year ago two things:
1. Don't leave it on your hands before you go to bed. As our hands go all over the place while we are within REM sleep and pending on where they go and if so - OUCH - is all I can say.
2. Never mistake it for tooth paste as it's is within the same type of tube but it's not Toothpaste and it's known to be a good way of getting rid of plaque while asphyxiating at the same time.
This mornings forecast was the above. I am not sure why it says "as up 4am" as they always update it but it still is what it is. Hmm, embrace this. embracing long johns or this "hot" ointment. Right now I am just embracing the morning although now it's still dark and I am embracing what can be, and my mind set is set on heading to the gym within two hours.
I have had a few pm with regards to this situation I have medically - I don't think about it. Literally I don't I keep my thoughts and mindset on the up and up but I do appreciate it. There have been some seven people now if not 10. And you know there really are some very nice people on this thing.
There are quite a few of us who care about you and your "situation" and we just want you to know we are here for you!!
ReplyDeleteYour blog made me laugh - Zostrix must be some wicked hot stuff!! LOL
Stay warm and be careful!! Have a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteYes their are some creams that do heat up for bones and if you leave it on your hands it could cause irritations in other places as you said.Take care and be safe, thinking of you Rosiex
Well it's true as far as this weather! And yes I kid you not with the Zostrix I have made the mistake of both of these and I have never used it since last winter but I think I shall again. We shall see - in going to the gym it's all about getting the circulation going. And I am just using right now light weights and I am not in there for long. So you do what you do. Ironically there still are some that I see that have shorts on. I was at the bookstore yesterday and I ran into on guy whom was in shorts and I had to ask him how he can do it.
ReplyDeleteI think he was high or suffering from organic brain syndrome. :)
Terri thanks, I am careful with how I train.
Rosie yep! This is one of them. And a great weekend to you. You know there is something I have learned is that nothing stays the same - we always look back at things in stages and can laugh about it. But more so within the current time.
ReplyDeleteNever heard of zostrix but it reminds me of heat, which unfortunately have had the unpleasant experience of mistaking for toothpaste once upon a time when I was really sick, LOL!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your day and hope the hours bring you sunshine and warmth!
It was dark when I got up also, but no ways near that cold.
ReplyDeleteWhat are the symptoms of "organic brain syndrome"?
I am so sorry wow SAD its on its way this is going to be a long and cold winter
ReplyDeletesending love to keep you warm
Likewise and the same to you Arielle.
ReplyDeleteIt's a joke....:)
ReplyDeleteWell all said Katya, I have been to the gym, I knew just yesterday to get on with things as I have there are only so many hours within the day - and it's cool but not as cold as this morning this now would be more of the normal nature of the weather for this time of the year.
ReplyDeleteSo it's all good. I guess you would call it the norm for this time of the year. Yet this morning it was cold, but now it's well within the realm of what the weather is for this time of the year.
Needless to say I this now is a nice Autumn and I hope it stays.
I've never heard of Zostrix....but then look where I live :) I get one from my friend in Taiwan..........we call it "whompie".........great for aching backs.
ReplyDeleteCanadian weather............enough said !...........seriously, the prairies are much colder than Nova Scotia....
Stay warm and keep your upbeat attitude going :)
Nancie as you would only know! Thanks much. As well as a great picture you have there.
