The Hobo Camp Fire Is going well #VI.. Stop In!!!

[Running Bear]

Went to Wal-Mart today to do some grocery shopping and give the leg some 'road time'. It felt good to walk from the car to store and vice versa. While in the store I did the smart thing and got a ride-on cart. No way am I up for that much walking. Boy the store was packed but I was able to get everything I went there for. We came back home and I carried my own groceries for the first time in five months. After all that I took the leg off, wiped out the inside of the socket and applied some Gold Bond body powder to it and stuck it back on. I got the extra strength triple action stuff. It's mostly talc. It also has menthol so I shouldn't have an itch there and it has zinc oxide as a skin Protectant. It feels better now than it did with the corn starch baby powder. I've had the leg on most of the day and it's hardly noticeable. Just when I stand up as the joint passes about 40-45° there's a little pain.
