With regard to the dry hands, apply lotion throughout the day and put Vaseline on your hands at night before you go to bed. Vaseline is also good for your feet too before bed.

I hear you about falling asleep at night after work. I do the same thing, but I embrace it now, especially since I don't sleep well at night anyway.

Try the lotion Gloves in a Bottle- really worked for cosmetology school!

Hello! Long, _long_-time reader, infrequent commenter.

For your hands, you probably need a thicker, more ointment-based treatment. Something that's a little greasy when you put it on.

I've enjoyed reading about your transition, career-wise, into education. I always really admired your writing online--you have so much to offer. I'd love to hear what you ended up doing for Christmas. I'm also happy to read your updates and hear your thoughts about allowing life to change and learning how to change with it.

Happy holidays! xoxo
