Purell/Hand Washing Junkie

I wash my hands constantly, which is a good thing. It is also bad, because now my hands are cracking all over (this is a winter thing, not year round). I have tried everything to help this situation. Neosporin with bandaids, Vaseline with gloves at night, Lotion, Non Alcohol Soap. It's not helping and I'm desperate! Ideas anyone (besides don't wash as much, that's not an option)? Let me show yall a picture of why I am so obsessed with washing my hands.

Now, I wash my hands constantly because germs scare the crap out of me, to put it bluntly. Let's take a moment to think about things you touch on a daily basis that are loaded with germs. The TV remote, door handles, cell phone, computer, the credit card swipe machine at stores, shopping cart handles, menus, restaurant tables, pens, your purse, steering wheel, keys, money, ketchup bottle/salt & pepper shaker at restaurants, other peoples hands, I could go on for days. Now that alone is a lot of stuff. You have to think, after you have touched these items you could possibly touch your face, eyes, mouth, or eat or drink something. And there you go, Germ Transfer.

That is why it is so very important to wash your hands. Purell makes a great stocking stuffer! Happy Hand Washing Everyone! Let's try to make 2009 as germ free as possible =)
