Relief is on the way to the cold and the weary!

The Founder of Do Not Disturb emailed me this week that the wonderful booties that I blogged about in "Bootylicious Do Not Disturb is keeping my toes warm this winter" are being shipped to Whole Body at the Hill Center in Nashville. Hopefully they will be here this week-end!

Mary, the Chief Relaxation Officer, of the company suggested to me that it's a great gift for Valentine's Day -- paired with a coupon to take the kids for 45 minutes or a fun book...something to make a friend or loved one enjoy a few minutes of pampering on several levels.

And, of course, for anyone else out there that is taking one day at a time in getting through the brutal cold of this winter, don't wait for someone to buy them for you!

bootylicious Do Not Disturb is keeping my toes warm this winter

For more than 25 years I have battled Raynaud's Phenomenon -- a strange circulatory problem that causes people's arties to constrict which in turns causes fingers and toes to turn blue when they get cold.

And getting cold equals pain for somebody with Raynaud's.

Heating pads and electric blankets have helped at night over the years, but about a month ago I came across a product that has totally changed my life.

Do Not Disturb, a company that markets it's products for home spa treatments, has the most amazing booties and mitts that are soft. You stick them in the microwave for one minute and then stick them on your feet and/or hands and it melts the cold away throughout your body. It's not the intense heat that traditionally comes from contraptions you put in the microwave and then drape across some part of your body. It creates a deep warmth down to your bones that lasts at least an hour.

It's a treat for most people, but it's a must-have for people like me. If you just can't get warm, buy a pair of these booties. It's the best $40 I've spent in decades!
