Automatic chess board

 If you know someone who has dementias and or Alzheimer's and like chess, you can get them this chess set that automatically moved.

 This allows them to play chess and need no one to play with because the board plays itself and moves the chess pieces to where they need even if they jump over their chess piece. 

This can also teach people how to play chess too if they are not sure how.

Amazon has a few boards that does that also. - Shop Automatic Chess here!

Husband and Gout and RA

 My husband has real bad gout. He also has Rheumatoid Arthritis. His gout flares up throughout his elbows, wrist, hands, knees, feet and occasionally the ribs. It just now recently spread to his feet and his toes are no longer curled like they use to be. 

He also gets knots on his feet and ankles when it starts and then he has the pain and swelling. When his elbow starts it gets hard and turns red. 

It apparently is straightening them out but his other toes on the other foot is curled still. The RA is not good either because it makes it hard for him to move and just overall is not pleasurable and I honestly hate to watch him suffer and he cannot do anything and I cannot
do anything to help him until it goes down. 

He learned that his shoes where one of the causes. He was told he wore 13s but he got to looking and he realized that they were to big and his foot had to much room and was bouncing around the shoe and causing ungodly amount of pain. 

He ended up going to Walmart and finding out he is a 10.5 however, he only wears high-tops because it supports his ankle and hamstring especially when he flares but. He also learned that the 10.5 is hurting him a little because his feet
swells and he needs something a little wider and we finally got him some wide and he is doing a lot better.

I also got him a cane. Well two canes. One has a arms rest like thing to help him get up and use the cane as support. The other cane has springs on the bottom and it helps him move around since it recoils back to him. 

He also uses a walker when he cannot walk as good with the cane. 

He has an armrest well two armrest for his computer because he works from home and his elbow swells out to the point he cannot lay it anywhere but the armrest helps because he can lay it on there and it helps so he is still able to use his arm. 

He highly recommends getting lightweight shoes so they are not heavy on the foot and get shoes that allows your feet to breathe in. He also suggests heating pads because it can help it also. Lots to rest and hydration and be sure to know what causes your flare ups. There are foods that are suppose to be avoided. 

His flare ups are sugary drinks, seafood. He also does have random flare ups.

We do use roll on the Nervive pain relief and that works better with RA flare ups.

Sometimes his gout flare ups and Rheumatoid flare ups look the same and it often time is hard to distinguish it so we treat both the same.

There was also this foot rub salve cayenne pepper that works great on it but we unfortunately can no longer find it.

Here is the gout diet.

The steal| Prime Video

 The steal is an Amazon Prime Video series. 

A group of people that goes on a heist and steal from a multi-billion pension fund company.

 This series is brand new and is a British crime thriller. 

There are plot twists in this series that you don't even believe. Two of the workers end up being forced to be in on the heist along with the rest of the building being forced to cooperate and approve the trades that they want done. 

But then the two that did it for the people heisting ended up stealing money from them somehow and it is just all over the place.

They do everything for them all while they all are trying to survive. Anything hidden in the company ends up coming to light so there is no more hiding the truth. 

This show is not slow. It pretty much sped into action. 

There are only 6 episodes in season one.

Wide Toe Box Mens Walking Sneakers

 These shoes are lightweight and my husband likes these since he has gout and his feet flares up to the point he cannot wear his original shoes. These shoes are comfortable and he is not in agony trying to walk. 

These shoes have wide box so he is able to stretch his feet more and and not have the top of the shoe compress into his feet especially when they swell from the gout flare ups and attack. 

These shoes are great because he has to use a cane and walker and he ends up having to drag his foot because sometimes it hurts to bad to actually walk on it.

These shoes have good grip and that is what I wanted for him so he would not slide. 

Get these shoes here!


If you are looking for a simulator pair, I highly suggest Fitville. They specialize in lightweight walking shoes that have wide toe boxes and are perfect for those who feet swell or have gout. Their shoes are just the same! They also have shoes that has a close on top instead of the tying it. I highly recommend these shoes also!

A36 Samsung Galaxy Phone Review


Let me just say this phone is quick and responsive. I have not had a lag or anything nor a stutter with this phone. I love this phone! You have two different bars up top, left side is notification, right side is system settings. If you swipe to on the right side you get a pinned app bar so you can easily navigate your apps.

If you swipe up on the bottom on the screen you get Samsung wallet which is cool it pulls out a little card as if you are pulling it out of your wallet.

It has wireless charging, tap touch. However I am use to my power button unlocking my phone with the touch sensor. I am not use to the touch sensor being in the screen to unlock.

You hold power button, it turns on the flashlight but you have to set
it up using the good lock app in the Samsung store which will allow you to customize your phone to your liking. It was quick and easy to migrate all of my apps, settings and stuff from the Moto to the Samsung. I highly recommend this phone if you are wanting something different and new.

The back is made of glass in which I like but I am nervous because it could shatter.

Even though this phone is made out of gorilla glass, I already got a scratch on it from it flying into the floorboard due to a deer crossing. The battery on this phone is alright. I am not sure if it is still learning me or not and that is why it’s not holding a good charge. Like a few minutes to an hour later the battery is kind of drained.

I figured out there was some background apps running and I put the phone on battery saver and it seems to be lasting longer than it was. That and the flashlight being connected to the power button kind of did it too.



I love this phone because everything is customizable on it. You can change the home screen buttons. You can have two different images on your home screen and lock screen in which no other phone allows that unless you make a collage. You can also customize your notification settings and have things float across your screen every time you get a notification. I however have a blue bubble that pops up on mine depending on the notification and I also have flowers that floats across the screen.

I love love love this phone. It is easy to use and simple. I was not sure coming from moto because prior to moving to moto I had a Samsung way back when and the digitizer went out in it when I dropped it and it just made me stay away from Samsung but now, I gain to love it again.

This phone is great also at keeping up with my medical records and appointments and medications because honestly, life be lifing and I be forgetting to take them but this phone is great at reminding me and keeping up with everything.

The Goodlock app is amazing at customizing everything. You pretty much go in and look for the apps you are wanting or things that can make the phone better and download them. If you do not like them you can remove them through there by hitting the I with the circle and it will pull up the page and about the app then there is a trash can on top.
