Forgive me if I'm posting information you're already aware of.

I had my husband go to the local farm supply store to purchase the gloves farmers use for cattle obstetric examinations. The gloves are clear, disposable and extend all the way up to the shoulder. Pretty convenient to use to cover your line while you're showering or bathing!

They're also very inexpensive. I think we paid $6 for two boxes of 20 gloves.

Whoa, BB, that is an excellent idea. I had never heard that. I've been fashioning stuff out of small garbage bags. MUCH better idea. Thanks for passing that along.

That's exactly what I did. Takes a Midwest "farm" gal to figure it out!
