but I hate wearing gloves because I lose a lot of dexterity
This is a mood. I often got asked this when dealing with things like really hot dishwater (which my daughter doesn't find hot at all) or cleaning products (especially given that my skin likes to fall off when near certain types) why I don't wear gloves and this is the answer (okay well this is the reason, the answer is that I become exceptionally clumsy).
The thumbs up turned out pretty good, I hope you find whatever images you got sent, bet it looked cool with all the plants :)
I'll wear gloves when working with Ice or cement but everything else I need to be in contact with the material. Luckily I was graced with fast-healing skin and unluckily graced with tremendous stubbornness.
From another person who is unreasonably stubborn I sometimes think it just comes with the territory XD
Maybe we are Subborn because we are just Right.
Maybe you are xD I have to keep redoing things (and think I have done so well past the point sensible people would have just gone screw this and found a hobby that is less headache inducing XD).
