All went well with the Melanoma and Volcano Removal. NO blood during the night and no pain for either of us.
I have a tip to share. I found the roll you see above, in the Dollar General store for just over a dollar. It is meant to use under glassware by placing it on the shelves, to keep them from sliding around and protect the glass. Having just struggled to get the lids off these bottles, I thought, cut these into squares and use them as bottle/jar openers.
Shocked to the core at how easy it is to open the lids with help from the square, I wanted to share it with YOU, my dear blogger friends. I opened a jar of olives without asking for help from hubby. One thing led to another, like the light of the sun shining through the bottle and here we are
6 years ago I purchased 2 round bottle openers made of rubber and they are worn out and I could not find replacements. cut two squares or circles, one for the bottom, one for the lid. Bob had to open each 1/2 gallon of my Vanilla Soy milk. I can do it myself now.
Make Do is my middle name.

oh how good that the evil is gone and you had a good night... we hope for super news when they check the wound area...
A great tip, I have a hard time opening jars and bottles. Thanks for sharing! Take care, have a great day!
I have heard that this stuff works good for opening jars and bottles. Glad to know that it's true. Some of those drink bottles are so hard to get open.
I have used that occasionally..seems like small lids are the hardest to grip for me..but I just use anything any more and it helps me grip....

I've been using that stuff for this purpose for years - it's a kind of magic! Glad you have also discovered it. Anything that makes life easier, eh what? YAM xx
So, I woke this morning thinking of y'all and wondering about your pain levels. Not ... hurray!
I never would have thought about this hack, but will be adding a roll to my Dollar Tree list. Last time I tried opening a stubborn jar of spaghetti sauce it almost flew out of my hands. You can imagine the rest!
The older we get, the harder it is to open bottles and jars. Thanks for the tip. I'm so glad you both got through your surgeries and did well afterwards.
First of all....I am thankful that you both are doing well and that there was No extra bleeding.....You have created a NEW invention. What a smart thing to figure out about this roll. Just think of how many jars and water bottles can be opened from this one roll. Great tip today!! I will being buying a roll of this magic foam.
Sandra and Bob I am so happy to read your surgeries went well
