Stay home---you only need socks and shoes if you go out. If you drop anything, just kick it into a corner and pick it up next month.

Re: Greynomad
I'm now 87 years old, having experienced another birthday, and I'm still living in WA, single (gave up looking), white hair, no teeth, no money, no worries.
I plan to have another birthday next year.

Re: Greynomad
Apart from Joy, I do have a grabber-stick, but no sock-putter-onner.
See first-mentioned aid for socks.
On the health front, coughing still hurts, but I gotta do deep breathing exercises every hour.
Overdid it a bit yesterday, couldn’t get my breath. It was serious enough for Joy to call ambos & I spent the afternoon in Corowa Hospital under observation. Gradually recovered, so no admission required.
I am now under house arrest.
Must behave like an old man.

Re: Greynomad
Ray, go easy on the coughing if you can.
All the bones are knitting and cartridges are repairing.
Coughing and excessive exercise will fracture the bone as it hardens in the knitting process.
It took me 4 months for the sternum to set hard before I could sneeze without hesitation. And, oh boy, it was such a sweet sensation to be able to sneeze with out wincing.

Re: Greynomad
What were you doing or trying to do that made you cough??
Have you got the "blow and make the blue balls rise to the top" thingy?
Just behave yourself ol fella x

Re: Greynomad
I was given some ‘bagpipes’ — a 2litre bottle with water & a plastic tube through the lid.
Gotta blow 10 lungfuls of bubbles every hour, followed by three coughs. Helps reinflate my right lung. I use a rolled-up towel pressed against my side to minimise rib movement & therefore pain.
