When you go to the store, do you ever stop and think about getting band-aids™ or ace bandages™? There's reason why those things are by the pharmacy in fact, and you may be better off having those things handy at your home in case of a minor scrape. I was always bumping into things, and no matter what happened, there was always the comfort that came along with having self-medicating remedial items at home.
HOW LONG A BANDAGE?
---------------------------
No matter how often you look where you are going or clear the path to the shed or garage, or even closet for that matter, you are bound to kick the small corner of the wall between the bathroom and closet, or slide off the side of the staircase and scuff up a little. We are designed to withstand this, and the pain sensation is a good reminder that we are fallible, with very little time until we find it out. If you are wise, and you would like to think you are, you will have at least a large band-aid™ in your medicine cabinet.
How long a bandage do you need though?
"I'm looking at a possible twenty foot bandage that I will possibly need on my fractured leg, and I am not sure if it is even going to be long enough. I didn't have any pain when I walked to the drugstore, but I was sure tired when I got back," quoting myself as thinking right now.
You can really cut off the blood flow with a bandage that has elastic thread in it.
It's like the socks that you get when they were really pressed for time producing them, and ran the machine twice as fast and made the socks twice as narrow.
I am going to forgo the bandage here. I hope you get the intent of this story.
Have a good day,
