Finally! Rest for the Weary Wrists!

If you use the computer a lot – and these days, who doesn’t – various parts of your body could indeed be suffering. I won’t even delve into the fact that today so many of us are overweight or morbidly obese because we’d rather play solitaire at our desks or on our laptops rather than go outside and shoot hoops or take a job. Okay, I guess I did delve into that! Computer use can also cause eyestrain and end up giving your cranium a headache unlike any other. But another body part that you might not think too much about or give any thought of concern to is the wrist. Those delicate yet sturdy blend of bones and joint and muscle enable us to drive cars, eat spaghetti, brush our teeth, and open the front door. Too much time at your laptop could be slowly destroying your precious wrists and they might not be getting the support they so desperately need. No worries though because the gel keyboard wrist rest is just what the physical therapist ordered – and none too soon either. You’re wrists will be in heaven with the support and comfort provided by this product.

It's a Numbers Thing

I have calculators all over my house. There’s one in the kitchen for when I write out bills. Another calculator is in the bedroom in case I need to double check my bank statements. A third calculator is in the home office for my husband to easily figure out his work-related expenses work-related expenses. Sometimes, I even carry a fourth calculator in my handbag for when I’m out running errands and need to tally up totals in the checkbook. But I spotted this compartment box calculator and I think I need a bunch of these! Not only is it a calculator, but it’s the perfect product for storing other things like paper clips, pens, pencils, or binder clips. The thing is, when you need a calculator, you usually need a pen or pencil, too. So, you waste time looking for one or the other. Yet this box can store your writing implements away for you so that they are on hand when you need them. Perfect! As you know from my prior posts, I love items that make my life simple and less hectic. And that’s exactly what this product does for me. I know it will be a great asset to your desk drawer, too.

A Cold Bottle of Water Is Just what I Needed

I’m a fan of fitness and have been for years. I find that working out makes me feel good, helps relieve stress, and improves my sleep at night. Plus, there’s nothing like taking out my frustration on my elliptical machine when I’ve been stuck inside on a cold February day with two kids who aren’t in school due to the blizzard raging outside. But to up the ante a little, I decided to join a gym, and I’m impressed with the beautiful swimming pool and array of classes that are offered as part of my membership. However, stupid me only brought the standard size bottle of water to class this morning – you know, that 16.9 ounce one. Big mistake! Not only am I not helping the environment any by bringing in a plastic bottle that will get a toss in the trashcan, but there wasn’t enough liquid to keep my bod hydrated. It’s time to bring in the big guns! Here comes my new best gym friend – the 26 ounce Santa Fe aluminum bottle. Enough fluids to get me through spinning class, no plastic bottle taste, and Mother Nature stays happy because there’s no waste. Everyone wins with this bottle!

Ah, My Aching Back... Aches No More

Have you ever met anyone who didn’t like getting their back rubbed? Me neither. In fact, I’m always ready and willing to be a guinea pig for anyone who has just graduated from masseuse school and needs someone to practice their new craft on. Hey, it’s what I do! I’m always looking for an opportunity to help out my fellow man or woman, as long as he or she has strong hands that can work out the knots in my back. In fact, I have even manipulated a way to get my kids into the act. Each night as I read to them before they get ready for bed, my son uses a massager to knead my spine. Call it child labor, call it bribery. I get a massage. The boys get time with Mommy. And that’s why I’m so happy to introduce the massage line of products from Gimmees, which include the Heart Shaped Massager. I like each of the massagers that Gimmees has and I’ve tried each of them, but I have to say that the Heart Shaped Massager is my personal favorite. Ahhhhhh! My back is all unkinked and feeling great once again.
