Do you rely on your own strength? [I Ask]

I really don't feel very strong, all the time...(tendonitis in my right wrist and a weak and painful hand because of that). So, because I can't really rely on other people, I googled how to open jars that won't open, (a pair of rubber kitchen gloves!), and I use dollies and carts to carry things that are beyond me. Then I use my legs to push or kick things that are so heavy they would injure my back.

I have found that preparation in advance really helps. I just tucked a 21 and 1/2 lb turkey into the oven, and I didn't even need my wrist brace!
