I don't believe it kicker!

I lost some weight once, but it found me again! :mad:

I have an excuse! I never "lose" weight. I just misplace it for a while! :D

Kitty I don't drop things, I toss them. A few minutes ago , I tossed the remote across the room and under the table. All I did was aim it at the TV, and my tremor/jerk, from out of the blue, just tossed it. Lucky it didn't smash. Phew!

What's a girl gonna do??? Just have to give a warning when I slice and dice things. It anyone comes into the kitchen, it's at their own risk.:o

Well! What do you know? I thought this was going to be a depressing thread, and there's so much really witty/funny stuff on here! Kitty, even when you tell us something "bad", your sense of humor shines through!

Seriously, you have my empathy and prayers, Kitty. I have dropsy, too, when I least expect it. Bob wouldn't recognize breakfast without hearing silverware hit the deck.

Is there anything PT could suggest that might help? Just a shot in the dark.

Lady, you better be careful if you have a flat screen tv...:p

I used to drop things when I worked as a server...syrup bottles (glass:eek:), all sorts of stuff.
I don't drop things as much now.

Hope you get stickier fingers soon, Kel...

Sorry, Kelly :hug:. I'm still the mourning the death of my favorite coffee mug :rolleyes:. Yesterday, I "dropped" my face right into to the door jam :o! Another day, another black eye :D:cool:.

Joelle! Be careful!! :D

I run into door jams all the time....usually with my right arm. I have the bruises to prove it, too. :rolleyes: I hate it when I drop something breakable. I've gotten to where I use plastic cups just to avoid the inevitable.

Buy a hand gripper and squeeze it every other night till you fall asleep with it in your hand. I broke my first one after 65,000 reps. About 1 1/2 yrs it took. Works. Wrap it with foam and tape to help protect what nerves you have left. I went from squeezing 45lbs on whatever that hand held measuring device is to 90!
