My two cats are pretty old, though the one still races to the top of this tree on occasion and so I am careful during her active hours. ~grin~ Thanks for being such an inspiration. Glad your wrists are good. I tweaked an old wrist sprain this morning. ~sigh~ I'm icing it down as I type.Darla M Sandshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18212760625717298992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2655671648854655720.post-28204717345437382832017-03-17T08:25:17.232-04:002017-03-17T08:25:17.232-04:00I regularly spend all day writing.

I do prefer a pc to a laptop, infact I even have one attacked to my TV so I can dive in should something magically appeard in my mind during a soap or whatever, and that really is a comfortable place to write. My only problem however is the occasional headache.Keith's Ramblingshttp://keithsramblings.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2655671648854655720.post-15633875239776063482017-03-16T17:48:16.052-04:002017-03-16T17:48:16.052-04:00Yes.

I should have done it sooner. <br />My cats would never allow me to use their tree this way. They would flip my laptop into the next county.<br />But, you rock. Don't stop.

So now I'm going to add a mouse controller to the mix before this minor shoulder twinge becomes an issue. One has to laugh at unexpected consequences. Be well!

Carrying everything across the house took several trips but I needed to escape the blasted afternoon television.

I used to do this with my computer at work. I had to build up the screen to prevent the neck and shoulder ache (PAIN). When I have it while on my laptop I just walk away but I am not writing or rewriting I am just checking my blog, PINTEREST, and facebook! haha. Retired life is amazing! Hoping the built up of the laptop works. Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10211965720334593365noreply@blogger.com
