    I'd give them away!! No, seriously, they get so hard sometimes that I think they protect me from a lot of needle pricks.

    Now, that aint even funny!
    Seriously, I do wash a lot of dishes and I take leisurely soaks in the tub. (Does that count?)
    Still got them.

    Of course I have calluses on my finger tips, especially on both of the forefingers. From time to time they peel a little, but the fingers don't get sore anymore. I really care for them! :-)
