Easy for me at work is to try to not lift anything unnecessary but still on my feet trying to get something done. Not a lot of desk work to be done at my job.

You might try a lidocaine patch. There is a prescription-strength that is only available with a script but the over-the-counter patch is almost as strong and these things do work. Icy Hot and Salonpas are both good brands of the lidocaine patch. My pharmacist husband says that the OTC ones should work almost as well as the prescription strength as there is only a 1% difference between the two. It worked wonders on a muscle strain in my shoulder that was excruciating.

    Well, thanks for the advice both of you. I'm stuck at work until 4:30 but may stop on the way home to see what's available. My wife keeps aspercream at home. That seemed to help a little last night.

    I had (have) a JD motorized dump cart. I was loading it with wood one day with the tailgate on, I think I actually moved a few loads that day. Well, the next day I had some really horrible rib pain. It took me a minute to think of the cause which was leaning over the tailgate to load the back parts of the dump cart. I suffered with that pain a long time before it finally faded away. That tailgate came off and never went back on.

    Do they still make ben gay, and does it work?
    Old story:
    Many years ago my legs were sore, so I rubbed them down with Ben Gay. I then took a pee(without washing my hands) this was a very bad idea!
    Ouch!! I think they do still make it.

    I'm curious if anyone has made a pecan juice. Pecan pie or perhaps as a flavoring in a custard base or similar. I personally find that nut flavors do not translate well into vapes. But that just could be me.
    Just happened to see this. Sorry if this answer's been given already, but Wonder Flavours makes a Roasted Pecan flavoring that IMO is pretty good all on its own.

    Here's a good Roasted Pecan Latte recipe using all WF flavorings. I vaped on this for quite some time before switching to unflavored again. Roasted Pecan Latte Recipe

    Wife swears by this, having used the aforementioned items.

    Traumica Maxx2 OZ.

    "We combine the incredible analgesic benefits of cannabis sativa hemp oil with anti-inflammatories: organic Arnica flower, ground ginger, and our eleven-part essential oil blend, "

    Been dealing with those folk for several years, good people, good service.

    I wonder if I could eliminate the cappuccino? Anything coffee-related is yuck city for me. Love the smell, hate the taste. But maybe it could be replaced or eliminated from this recipe??

    Yeah, I think it would be good! And honestly the roasted pecan by itself is good. It's a very 'dark' flavor, for lack of a better word. Pretty heavy, so use a low % at first.

    It's such a small amount I would think you could use something else. Fa Fresh Cream would be my choice.

    That sounds good but sweet. Does it have much sweetness to it?

    Totally off-topic scream of frustration: I have somehow misplaced the cordless headset for my phone. I was using it this morning, and it's nowhere to be found. My house is small, and I have looked everywhere I can think of--including the freezer, the oven, and the microwave (kind of relieved it wasn't in one of those, but I'd be happier to have found it). It's driving me nuts.

    There, I am on topic, after all. Nuts have been under discussion.

    I am so ready for this work day to end. Only a little longer to go. I went crazy and ordered a bunch of RF flavors from bcf on the sale yesterday. I had only tried a few RF flavors in the past so I figured what the heck at those prices. One came up as 1.19 for 30ml. Now I hope I have room in my cases to put them. I still have others I haven't put away yet.
