Heh, my hands have been chapping during winter since I was 8. *huggles Neutrogena lotion*

Of course, being 8, I didn't know what it was at first and proceeded to just wash my hands over and over with cold water "since they were bleeding." Oops.

XD Owch. My knuckles started cracking and bleeding during winter when I moved to Denver, with its dry climate. They don't do it as much now that I'm back in Texas, but occasionally do so.

Heh. I know it's winter because everything, including the cat, is starting to give me static electric shocks. All-over-itch can't be far behind....

Haven't had too many shocks so far this year. But it took me a while to get to sleep last night because of the IIIIIIITCHING!!!!!!! My friend who's allergic to everything under the sun and thus knows itching recommends the Aveeno bath stuff. I may be dropping by the grocery store tonight on the way home...

A few years back, I started running a humidifier in my apartment through the winter months and that really cut down on the itching by OMGALOT.

You gotta love the mid-Atlantic, you spend half the year running humidifiers and the other half running dehumidifiers. :-p

this is unrelated, but it's related to you, somewhat...

I hear ya on the itching; it's because all the #%&* buildings are overheated.

Definitely hitting the grocery store on the way home and picking up the Aveeno stuff recommended to me. And maybe anything that promises to rip off the top layer of dead skin and moisturize whatever's left over.
