To add: drink plenty of non caloric fluids and keep away from too much UV (use sun screen). And avoid the heat, since older people can't regulate hot temperatures as well. And, for countries where you can afford it, get medical checkups or go to the doctor when something seems off. In my european country we have certain free, voluntary checkups at certain ages to check for things like colon cancer and breast cancer.
Birds have something similar to not drop from a branch while sleeping. That's why their toes in death are curled together, those muscles are relaxed, so to speak
The first Friday the thirteenth when i was 15 or so. My parents didn't even allow me to watch the news or any movies aside from a few cartoons, so i was shocked.
Which they would undoubtedly let the customer pay for when buying their clothes
I love my asics. I can walk longer now, and with way less pain in joints like hips, knees and feet. I really learned that wearing good shoes can make a big difference
The next planet to move to
Unlimited customer here and i also got excellent support from them every time
Actually, i have no problems with texting. It's the meeting in person that i find tiring
It's not a dumb question at all. No, if you just wet it and let it dry, it will not keep its shape. I think for that, you have to steam it, but very gently and without overheating it. Acrylic yarn is plastic and it has a memory. If you steam it while blocking, you basically tell it; this is the shape i want you to keep. But i can't tell you how hot the steam needs to be and the specifics. For instance, i don't remember if you have to touch the yarn with the iron or just steam it while hovering over it.
Oh sorry, i probably overlooked that it was acrylic yarn. There are still methods to block it, though. You can't make it hot, but you could pin it all around, spray it wet and let it dry. That could help somewhat. Downside is that it takes some time to dry of course.
So, a few weeks after my very first covid attack, i still have some fogginess. So, i discovered a few tiny mistakes in my little bookmark cross stitch. And i stopped working on it, because i had already fixed some other small mistakes and i was feeling disheartened. I contemplated whether i could stitch over them (but i'm a bit of a neat freak, so this tells you how i felt about it), or rip them out, or just ignore them and keep going. And for a week i was looking at that thing on my desk, waiting for me to make a decision. So, today i picked it up again and checked my pattern. I did not make a mistake. I colored them wrong on my chart...
(For anyone interested, it's the Vevaco PN 0184423 kit.)

It will be a gift for someone.
It's so cheerful! Don't look to closely, but it is sturdy enough
And keep your teeth and gums healthy. Take care of them. Not only brushing and flossing, but don't eat all day long and stay away from juices and sodas, since they are acidic and wear away the enamel of the teeth. Finally, try to keep your weight in check and eat your veggies (not always the same ones) and some fruits.
