When you’re old, doin youngsters work

When your hands ring out a chamois 500 times a day…7 days a week..if it rains, probably double that in a day, and then your hands grip a scrub brush for the teak floors or the non skid deck, you find the tips of your fingers become numb, then your wrist aches, then it hurts to grasp things. You know you’re old. So I talked to people I know in different businesses…hygienists who all have it, friends who have had it, they say these braces help. So mine came in today.

And it turns out Kim kardashian was right. Holding a cell phone for too long can cause it. Because these braces make it VERY hard to hold my phone and type. Anyway, yachtie life has such pleasures. When I sit and relax on the boat I notice things, spots I’ve missed, my teak doesn’t look as good as his teak. My non skid surface is beginning to look peppery. So today was Christmas for me. My amazon order finally came. When you’re in the Hamptons 3 day prime means 10 days…maybe 2 weeks and maybe the UPS guy couldn’t deliver to the marina so he took it to the local post office cause he may not be back soon. I got the teak cleaner I wanted, the deck cleaner I wanted and got to cleaning, in the rain. I was so happy with the deck results I went on to the teak. My boss said I know you’re excited, but that’s enough…you’re over doing it. Come have a glass of wine. He had guests coming and I am obviously not presentable, so I grabbed a glass and am relaxing in my room. Sorry for the boring post but IM SO EXCITED!

  1. Also an ace bandage at night helps! I have moderate carpal tunnel and I wear an ace bandage every night and so far so good! Good luck💕
