gloves for interpreting   Message List

Hello all!

I apologize again for the dual post, but I also think that both groups have insight that is helpful. ;-)

The school I work in is kept quite cold (rumors have that the A/C is on) and normally that would be no problem, except that I really don't want to terp with cold hands/wrists. It has just started, got a string of cold fronts come through, and I can't seem to keep my wrists/hands warm. I have warm-ups to do so I won't start cold turkey to terp, but it does nothing to keep them warm for long enough. even while terping they are cold and i can feel it. any ideas on gloves or warmers or something that i can wear either while interpreting (and if this, should match skin tone, right? or at least be something opposite/contrasting with the color my shirt, right?) or driving and during preparation time so that i don't hasten injuries by terping cold. (probably while driving too! ;-)

thanks all for your input in advance and hope great afternoon for all of you!

nick



hope never to be again as you are today.
