I use and suggest Plano fishing tackle boxes. They are available in many sizes and many are adjustable.

That's a bit beyond my enthusiasm for putting so many pills into compartments at once. I don't take many every day, but I like being able to pop them out of the little cubicle.

I use a two-week pillbox for the pills I take every day. My current one broke, so I looked in the Dollar Tree for another. All they had were large one-week pillboxes. I bought two and used my hot glue gun to attach them. How did people manage before the hot glue gun?

I think the secret to my success at arriving at old age is to not take any pills other than vitamins.

Rubber bands. Duct tape.

Don't talk to me about pills.

The last 4 or 5 days I've spent doing "cold turkey".
I'de been taking morphine pain killers for the last few months
for a torn shoulder tendon and bursitis.

I didn't feel "addicted" but obviously I was... the last
weeks been hell on wheels.

Having said that I'm out the other side...
Even though my shoulder still hurts like buggery, and I'm on a waiting list for surgery;
my heads not aching too much now and I'm not spewing into a bucket any more... There's no Spring without Winter.

The new (at least at retail availability) glue that cures instantly when ultraviolet light is applied sounds promising. I believe it was originally developed by a dentist for repairing chipped/broken teeth. I have a couple of tooth repairs with that technology and still holding up after several years.

Super glue doesn't need UV light!!!

Duct tape Jerry. Anything that isn't together but needs to be -- duct tape.

Anything that needs to be separated but isn't -- WD40.

Life is that simple!

That UV glue isn't very impressive. You can't shine the light where you applied the glue - except in the case of glass. I'll still with regular CA glue.

I tried those glue toothpicks, but they kept getting stuck in my teeth.

That would depend on how its used I suppose Jerry.

Dentists certainly manage to cure it.
