Hi, Ginny here. I was hoping for some help on getting my beads out without spilling them all over. I was putting them in my hand, counting out my daily drop, and then putting what is left over back in the capsule. Well, today my capsule fell over and out they came.

 

What have you done to make this a bit simpler? Thanks and have a Blessed Day, Ginny

EquusWoman might have a solution for you on this...... She's our resident Bead-counting Guru.....if she doesn't answer here, you could send her a PM.....

This is the only reason I can think of that makes me glad I went cold-turkey....not having to deal with all those tiny little beads.... :-)

What I did GK, was to moisten the end of my finger slightly. Put that finger over the open capsule and shake. When I removed my finger there was usually 4 or 5 beads stuck to it. I would discard them and keep going until I reached my goal. Put the cover back on the capsule and take and then curse the day I ever started on it. lol

That's a good idea fishinghat! What did you do with the capsule? Did you hold it in your other hand. I try to put my capsule somewhere where it won't tip and spill, but I'm not successful at it. LOL  Thanks for the help and I enjoyed your last remark! It's so good to laugh at ourselves.

Yes, I held the capsule in my left hand and moistened the index finger on the right hand. I always figured that I better laugh at myself before someone else beats me to it. lol
