My legs are swollen and my hips are sore, but today is the last day to get baking done before tomorrow morning. We deliver the biggest order we can to the grocery store on Bald Head Island. What I will get done today for sure: 4 cakes, 10 pies. The goal is 4 cakes and 20 pies. We’ll see how much I get done.

Have you ever used CBD balm? Really helps my aching joints. And improves overall well being

@LnzyHou Thank you! The swelling I’m dealing with is because I just had my hips replaced. I’m doing too much too soon (I have to). But, I did find a place that has an infrared sauna that will probably help. It’s $50 for 3 sessions. I miss the big bathtub and tankless water heater I had in my townhouse. That thing had healing powers!

I have hip and knee replacements in same leg. I know your challenge

@LnzyHou @LindaGoodliffe Both my hips are bionic. Long soaks in a warm bath are magic. My kids started calling it “whale time” Hot springs pools are also awesome. @jaunty

@LnzyHou How long, and what, does it take to get rid of this swelling that happens when I bake for hours? I tried yoga and swimming, and I got stabbing nerve pain in my foot, which might be my back. I hobbled around on messed hips so long I screwed up my back. 🙄

@LindaGoodliffe

I’m better off if I walk stairs. My pain results from lack of exercise.
