    I keep forgetting to buy new insoles for my shoes and my entire body radiates pain from standing on concrete all day.

    Do insoles really work. Maybe I haven’t found the right ones. Which do you use?

    I generally buy doctor scholls and I can definitely tell the difference. This past week I've been in a lot of pain after work and it dawned on me that my insoles were completely worn out. I get the kind that says they're for work but I just now got some that are designed for overweight men to see if they're extra comfy.

    I’m going to keep on trying different ones. Maybe by trail and error I’ll find a good one for me. Thanks have a great evening!

    I had a pair made at Road Runner Sports a few years ago.

    I just checked and they are now about $85.00. imho - They're worth every penny.

    TY so much for this. I really need these, too & never heard of this store before. The closest one is a state away, but one of their stock innersoles is worth a try.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to look this up for me! I really appreciate it. I'll take a trip there next wk. Too bad they don't custom make them, but I just got here so just need a bit of time to look around.

    I'll let you know how they work out. TY again.

    My request for not going into work today has been denied. I guess I better get up. Maybe I wasn’t as persuasive. 🤔

    After about five times of asking my teenage daughter to make phone calls or even texts to thank birthday well wishers and card senders (+$), she still has yet to do it. Not bad news, necessarily, just frustrated and 'bout to get beyond irritated.

    Teenagers... *smh* my kids did the same thing - I told people to quit sending them stuff since they are not grateful. It worked, they didn't get stuff for other Holidays and had to apologize to get back into their good graces.

    Oooooohhhh good to know I'm not the only one who thought about doing this and I think I will...

    My sister had a rule that her kids couldn't spend the money or use the gift until the thank you notes (texts were acceptable) were completed. I got really fast thank yous from her kids!

    This is my new rule! Thank you!

    oh well; it's only gonna get down to 18° tonight.

    Good luck. Stay warm. 18° for me I would die. I live in 100° weather. It’s 50° right now and I’m literally shivering with the heater and 4 blankets.

    Oh, bloody boo. Murphy & his laws aren't so amusing. Good luck! Hope it's already fixed!

    Lately I have hated to eat. Everything has lost its taste. I dread eating. I just take a few bites of something and then I feel so bloated. I think I’m going to go see the doctor. Maybe it’s something more.
