Either-or

 I have begun wearing sweatpants on occasion. They keep me warmer than shorts and leggings. Mainly because wind does not blow up shorts when I’m wearing sweats. 

And I  have been able to manage my incontenency. Yea me.

But, as often happens with me, I can be warm or I can use the lift. I can't do both, at least not easily. 

It turns out that sweats tend to get caught in the leg brackets of the lift and keep me from getting in the lift.

I do not have the "be warm or use the lift" issue often, but it is common for a  plan to seemingly work, only to have complications.
