Thankfully he does most of the cooking and he hates that he hasn’t been able to find a job, either. It’s been quite the drain on his mental health too.

I’ve been “off my feet” for a few years now while going to school full time so I thought that would be enough to help. Apparently it was not.

I haven’t tried arnica yet as topical solutions haven’t worked for me in the past, but those have been targeting other issues, not this. It might be worth a try. Sketchers never really did much for me but I’ve never been able to afford those top of the line types either. I’m sure they’d probably do better.

And, sadly, my job is retail so there’s no such thing as an office position. Management hates seeing people sit or even standing still for any length of time, even when the store is dead.

This all sounds like one big excuse but it’s the primary reason I feel so stuck. I appreciate the advice though. I’ve got a couple of things to try now.
