Hands
One of the things I've been stressing about lately is a really frivolous one. It's a small thing but it's been bothering me so much.
It's just that I'm the resident dishwasher at our sessions, so after washing so many dishes a week and being in contact with so much dishwashing liquid, my hands have started to feel really dry lately. It hurts to bend them and they are getting so rough.
My hands used to be quite plump and smooth. My daddy used to look at my hands and say they were 'thousand gold hands', ie: haven't done much housework. Quite spoilt-sounding but I do agree that I didn't do much housework as a kid. I also have a habit of stroking my hands when I'm stressed, feeling them smooth is quite therapeutic for me.
Been trying a variety of methods to make it better, wearing rubber gloves while washing, putting hand cream but it's still really dry and painful.
It's been on my mind so much that last night I dreamt my hands were so dry that my fingers started dropping off one by one! In the end, I was left with just my 2nd finger and the rest had all fallen off. When I told Merv about my dream this morning, he said 'wah, good thing left 1 finger, can still dig nose.' Oh boy!!! :p
