On a lighter note; How life changes

"On the tiles" for me now means the sheer joy of standing on the cold bathroom floor at some daft hour having dragged my tired sleepy body out of bed where red hot pokers are attacking my feet.

Love and good health to you all.

Know the feeling very well. Part of my solution is keeping a hot water bottle in the fridge till you go to bed. Partial relief and no having to get out of bed until until it gets warm again. It might help you.

Thank you Anne, that sounds like a good idea.

Boy do I know the red-hot feet. I describe the pain like sulfuric acid on my skin. Although my toes might rather take the acid, lol. OmG, did I just laugh at that? Nothing funny about it. I have fantisized many times about chopping them off. But then somebody told me I'd still have the pain because it's actually coming from someplace else. Mine is worst on the top, so not sure how I could get the top of my foot down on the tile. Guess I could drop dead in there. That way my whole body would feel cooler. Talk about complete relief...LOL. (Just joking about the dropping dead, Maz) God Bless You!
