I forgot to say something else or a couple of things. Firstly, Shelly, the only time I get too warm is overnight at times even when the air conditioning on and a ceiling fan. It also helps with my chronic pain. My husband got different sizes of these for me:
I have 4 of these (they are smaller ones): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FHZNQO/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1&fpw=alm I have 1 of these (A bigger one) : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000LX65QE/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1&fpw=alm For me they are kept in the freezer. If I get too warm I put them over my upper right back but I lay on my back and I don't have anyone to put them on my back so I leave them on my front to give me comfort and to help cool me down. They warm up really quickly if my body is too hot but they helped me tremendously. Lastly, last year and this year we lost at least 3 members of this list (Steve Oldaker, Bobbie Humphreys, etc.) that became great friends of mine who I spoke with on the phone many many times. Please help remember them and their unexpected losses this year! ~Lori On Thu, Dec 10, 2020 at 6:41 PM Philip D Wells <[email protected]> wrote: > Ditto > > > > Me too ! > > > > Direct sunshine, through a window if necessary. > > > > Yeah, love it, have to drag myself away from it to achieve anything. > > > > > > > > > > Best > > > > Philip D Wells > > 280 Paora Road > > RD 37 > > Okato > > Taranaki > > New Zealand 4381 > > > > [email protected] > > > > > > > > *From:* Shelly Kerchner [mailto:[email protected]] > *Sent:* Friday, 11 December 2020 2:09 PM > *To:* [email protected]; Greg > *Subject:* Re: [QUAD-L] Sunshine > > > > Greg, > > LOL!
