No, it's not weighted K Atie.  I use mine under my bottom sheet and on top of my mattress. I have put mine in the area where my feet go (the choice is up to the user) and there are various options of blanket, all different sizes, which you can choose from.  It is plugged into a normal electrical socket, but it has two dummy prongs and the earth one is the active one, however it doesn't use electricity, it is purely plugged in to access the earth that runs through the house.  It will all be explained better on the various web sites, but the one I got was  the Fabric Grounding Mat from betterearthing.com.au

Very interesting Marina.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Marina, Thanks for the info on the earthing blanket
Mab, I bought a Spiralizer with a voucher I got at a Forum Fest. It is a hand turning thing.  Quite good once you learn what size veggie to put in it.

I think I need a good talking to.  I am considering buying a TM 6. I certainly don’t need it but you can never have enough can you?

Mmm, don’t know about that statement cookie LOL.  If you want one, go for it I say.

I really don't know much about the TM6 but I think it would give you a whole other dimension to your cooking ... and I am sure you would get a great deal of use out of it.

Go for it Cookie.  I went to my DD's demo when she bought one and liked it.

The  man who said it can't be done should not interupt the woman doing it.

I'm pleased you all said that. I remember Gert saying exactly what Chookie as said. If you want it and can afford it....go for it. It is all ordered etc. I'm looking forward to it. DH reminded me that you can't take it with you...… perhaps he is planning to do away with me. ;D ;D ;D

Nothing like the support of forum members cookie, what else are you thinking you might like? Maybe we can help you with another purchase.  I knew someone who loved sewing so she bought heaps of material to make all hers and DH’s tops and T-shirts.  Hubby went off a bit at the amount spent but she virtually said the old saying to him.  Next day he came home and told her he’d been thinking about what she said and he’s bought a boat!  Talk about making the most of a throwaway line.

I. Don’t think we will be getting another boat‼️ That is very funny though. DH has bought an aluminium canopy to put on his new ute and plans to put a lot of stuff that normally goes in the van, into that. It will keep him off the streets while he plans and does it.

Judy, love your story. Cookie, good idea to keep the fellows off the streets.
Think I must be sick, haven’t bought anything lately.
