j: since I stay home all day I just do regular washing. Only when I go out shopping I wash like crazy. Are you going out a lot? -N

Not me. I guess I am not washing enough. But I do use my spray whenever I go out and touch stuff before I get back in my car or house.

On my second trip to VA, before this pandemic all started I had a bad cold. I didn’t want my daughter to catch it or contaminate everything I touched. So every time I blew my nose, which was a hundred times a day, I would wash my hands. My hands got so red, cracked and full of rash that it stung to wash my hands.

Not yet, but I do apply a moisturizer periodically. There's a picture circulating, that has a ladies hands looking like Chinese chicken feet they serve at the restaurants. I'd send it to you, but it looks grotesque and spooky.

N, since the middle of last month I've driven my car only 3 times . . . twice to the. mailbox and McDonalds drive-through and once to take my mom to Tripler to pick up her medicine. Wendell does combat duty. But I wash my hands anytime I touch something that comes from outdoors.

Annie, thanks for texting me your tips!

Aunty, thanks fo the spray! I've been using it a lot. Nice scent.

Susan, eeks!

Chet, thanks for not sending. LOL.

Kat, I probably need to be more diligent about putting on lotion.

Hi Jalna,
It could be from your soap. Make sure you are using a soap without any or too much chemicals. Even though they may be cleaning your hands, there could be chemicals that could be not very good for your skin. I can email you some suggestions if you want. Stay safe! ~Jowee

Thanks Jowee! I've been moisturizing more often and it seems to be helping. But I will look into getting a more skin-friendly soap.
