Curious I'm truly sorry. I am befuddled more then usual it seems.

You are welcome to my knorks!

I got 10 for xmas. 2 stainless steel and 8 red plastic ones. The red ones are still packaged, but I think they will be awesome for cookouts. Dad didn't want to return them all. I'm not sure why he bought so many. I only use one per meal. I'm just glad he got them.

Default AARP & accessible/univeral home design

We've also thought about decreasing the height of some of the counters in the kitchen, so that whilst I am doing preparations in the kitchen I could be sitting on a chair or stool.

Does anyone have any links to share with good plans or any suggestions that would be helpful to us.

Thanks!
Go to aarp.org, it has, on the left side, a clickable area called HOME DESIGN, within which they have tips and ideas for every room in the house, and for important features within those rooms. Hope this helps.

I just started using speech recognition which a techie guy told me was built into computers to type anywhere on my computer. I just had to buy a headset to start. When my hands get tired I just start speaking instead. It works quite well. I kinda like it.

I also have a Knork or 2.

Well, there's another miracle on the scene. I wasn't completely sold until I tried the Reach Access Flosser and I'm here to say, it's fantastic! I've waited a long time for a tool to help my stupid fingers fumble floss. I'd give it two thumbs up if I were able to raise them both.

I love it so much, I'm getting another one to keep in my travel kit!
