Adventures in one-handedness...

[tinuvial]

We all know the saying, "Necessity is the mother of invention," right? My current version, however, is "bodily injury creates necessity." I am amazed by how quickly I have adapted to a strange 7-finger version of typing, albeit with lots of backspacing and data correction. Typing for any extended period of time does make my left hand hurt. It also creates an economy of words that I am not known for... lol

The word from on high at HR hath decreed that no bra = no office. So, until my small motor skills return (aka, the cast comes off) I shall be working from home. (Verily there was much rejoicing). This means that if you are in the Alpharetta area and want to do lunch, I'm available. Would love to catch up with some peeps.

I have come to the conclusion that severe physical pain causes me to be maudlin. The only times in recent memory that I slip into the "oh woe is me" mood is when I am sick or broken in some way. Thank goodness that has passed and I am now focused on the way to retain the most productivity given current physical limitations.

Ciao for now.

I can give you tips on how to type with two fingers if you want! Have yet to break the old habit of the hunt and peck, but I'm speedy.

Hehehehe, I'm doing a strange 7-finger version that seems to be working extremely well... But thanks for the encouragement.
