Wow, you guys did far more advanced things than I did. I'm so very impressed. I mainly made bangles. I used to be able to pick up things I'd just soldered (in England they pronounce the d) right away. I never could figure out how I did that. I figured it was like people who can walk on red hot coals. I know I'm boring, but I want you to know that while and after I'd lived in the hydrogen sulfide I dropped things a lot more than now, and I used to bump into things more, too. I don't know if you bump into things. So... since I do those things less, I have got to credit the huge amounts of b12 I had with the improvement... because that's really the only thing I did have. Now I can walk down my hallway and not bump into either wall. When I first moved here from my condo that wasn't possible. If I had a shower (hot water and full tiles and stuff) I'm wondering if I could turn around with my eyes closed when I'm washing my hair... I almost think I might be able to.  the neat thing about being a silversmith in London, though, was that I had my own hallmark.

Hey everybody who has to pick up hot stuff. Don't use potholders.
Buy those silicon mitt things. Best thing I ever did. Nothing can be too hot for these things. I put one mitt on, reach into the oven, and pull out my muffin pan (out of a 400 degree oven). The mitt is perfection. I don't trust potholders. You might think the heat won't get through but it often does. just wanted to share this little treasure of a thing I have in my kitchen. Along with my vidalia smart chopper that is. lol Melody

I LOOVED to thwack the metal into shape...Since I had a horse, who needed specialty horseshoes...whatching a Farrier THWACK that metal to fit the foot was always an amazing thing to watch...and here I was merely melting glass on metal? The farrier especially on the days over 90 with his portable kiln/oven going up to 2000 degrees was worthy of respect and presents of Gatorade and other wet presents.
Thwacking the metal, making beautiful things, in what ever shapes or forms is something I truly love and respect. OOOH turn around in a shower w/eyes closed and NOT hold onto walls? Fer me one very dangerous concept to consider...NOT. I do very well, falling down and breaking something w/o that...thank you. - j |

I make some strange decisions. Well, my eyes are still full of tears, but I'm not crying. It was that we can have these wonderful experiences and enjoy things so much... and then not be able to turn around in the shower with our eyes closed... (though I think maybe I could now... I'm thinking that if some miracle comes up and I can make it to Feb... and have some heat... that I'd like to see about on demand hot water using ... kerosene... )

Hi Bob
This thread that you started with a justified vent must now be making you want to smash the computer to bits. I can only guess how you are feeling but if it is any consolation I for one am totally with you. The frustration you expounded in your posting came through like fire and reminds me of the bad days I have – and they are increasing. Vent more my friend especially when your emotions are hijacked by those who, if they don’t understand you, should keep their chit chat to an appropriate thread. There now I have had a vent for which I am unapologetic. Tony |

I'm sorry to see that you are feeling angry. ((((((Tony))))))) I so agreed with the rant... and I also agree that there were beautiful things from before ... before the pain and nerve problems. Are you saying that a rant thread can only contain rants?????

lol re the blonde Duh, Tony.
I don't see it that way, I think there are whole spectrums of things that can be part of a thread. Even a rant thread has the yin yang composition.

Bob:
I can understand how you feel. Once I was told just to "Suck it up!". Now that is just enough to reallly make you want to blow!

This thread makes me feel less sad about being single. I do remember feeling lonelier when I was married and not understood than when I was divorced and alone. I think it's worse to have someone you love and want to feel truly intimate with not empathize, than doing it on one's own.
Actually, since developing the back issue, my disabilities have become more visible, so I often get more empathy, which takes the form of: "How awful for you to go through this alone." But then, really, I was more alone when married. At least there's no illusion.
