Lunch

When I'm alone, sometimes I make a sunbutter and jam sandwich. (My son is allergic to nuts).

I'm used to the mess. But sometimes my brain doesn't recognize my right hand. So when I lick my right hand to get the sunbutter off, it feels like I'm licking someone else's hand.

Kinky.

  2. Grace, maybe you want to try this, It's probably not officially approved as a therapy but it makes sense to me. In my research I found this on thermal stimulation.[url]http://myweb.ncku.edu.tw/~fzshaw/ ASA.pdf[/url]
    researchers found that cycles of heat and cold significantly enhanced the
    sensory and motor function in the arms and hands of stroke survivors after a few weeks of
    therapy.

  4. Thanks Dean. I wonder if doing the dishes (including rinsing with cold water) would count?
