Oh what a night does not do it justice. I'm exhausted after getting home at midnight and thrashing around the house with the worst leg cramps I've had in ages. What's up with THAT?
Here we are in the lodge with the biggest crowd ever!!
Once I recover, I'll fill you in.
Praying your leg cramps go away. They are no fun!

Wishing you well. Rest up!
ReplyDeleteSorry about the leg cramps. They are so painful.
ReplyDeleteRE your leg cramps..I've had them for many, many years with no relief until recently. You might want to try Hylands Naturals Leg Cramps Ointment A friend suggested the pills by Hyland but I've found the ointment works for me. Not all the time but most times application of the cream does relax the area and stop the cramp. It may just be the massage action but what ever it is, it does work wonders. ( I suggested the Sweet Valdalia Onion salad dressing to you so have I every steered you wrong?)
ReplyDeleteGood day to rest!! Hope the pain is short lived.
ReplyDeleteI hate to hear about you suffering from leg cramps. You are likely low on salt and magnesium. When I feel leg cramps coming on, I take a teaspoon of salt in warm to hot water and I add some magnisium to it too. Take it even if you a get the cramps and they will go away sooner. I have magnesium powder, but you can likely get it in pill form. Drinking salt in warm or hot water makes it much easier to take, almost no real salty flavor. Through the years, I found this works and if taken soon enough, you can avoid the cramps. I can usually detect cramps coming on in my feet first. If no magnesium, at least take the salt. This works. I just put a glass of water in the microwave for a minute with the salt in it and add the magnesium after. More salt in your system can also stop you feeling tired out as you can get that from low salt too. Maybe if you take that about once a week or so, you could avoid those nasty cramps.

Good long well deserved blog break!
ReplyDeleteThis is what works for me.
ReplyDeleteMag Relief….pure magnesium lotion.
I got mine on Amazon..$22. Made by JigSaw. Recommended by my holistic Dr.
Free of harmful ingredients. It’s in a pump form…a cream
I put it on my legs before bed. It works. I wouldn’t be without it.
Truth is ….the majority of people are magnesium deficient due to our soils.
Leg cramps are horrible when I would get a lot I would like to have a hot bath, it helped a lot
ReplyDeleteHope your leg cramps have disappearred...hugs
ReplyDeleteI've heard pickle juice is supposed to cure them quickly.
ReplyDeleteTwo teaspoons of mustard. Straight out of the bottle. Settles down the muscle within a minute. It really helps.
