Taking things for granted

Posted , 6 users are following.

Grrrr, I am so fed up. I am used to touch typing and the fingers are forming the words as they are forming in my head, like talking really.

Now I have this hand problem I am trying to type like my husband does, with 2 fingers flat on the keys.

Well I can't find the keys and I'm making all these mistakes.

I am going to go back to the touch typing but short posts and no waffle for now. But how I miss chattering away with my fingers. :cry:

    Alicia, I find the same thing, but it is not my typing, someone periodically comes in and moves the computer keys around :wink:

    Well, thats my story and I am sticking too it :twisted:

    Oh I've definitely got wandering hand trouble :roll:

    I think everything I have posted has been typed and corrected at least twice, if not more.

    Gave up completely last evening and shut down at 6pm as I just wasn't making an sense at all :evil:

    It's so frustrating ...... as particularly, like you Alicia, I was a very fast touch typist :roll:

    (And the typing was pretty good too :lol: )

    I'm sure I've got a certificate for sixty words a minute somewhere :?

    Or maybe that was my shorthand ...... but think that was 120 :?

    So long ago, just can't remember :roll:

    My hands and typing also suffers. I also used to be a touch type person. I think I was in the lsat group of people to do my gcse typing exam on the big old fashioned typewriter. My trouble is not pain as such, but my hands are so cold they go blue with pins and needles. They get so cold they can be sore to touch. My feet also have the same problems at times. I think I have told you all before I can have the fan on but have my feet wrapped up icy cold.

    I use heat backs, I don't know what they are called. They are a liquid filled and you flick a metal thing inside them and they heat up, are herden. After you have used them you place them in hot water until they go clear again. They will not work uptil you flich the metal again. I hope that makes sence I just tied myself in knots. :steam:

    Hi all

    We used to have a 'heat at a click' bottle warmer and it was brilliant.

    I do know that they alsp make heat at a click products for feet, body and shoulders too, probably hands aswell.

    Try googling 'Heat At A Click'

    My mum bought me some of those \"click and heat\" things that are hand sized for Xmas last year. She got them in M+S in the \"outdoor\" dpartment. They are probably for hikers! Me and Ally take them to the football :football:

    When they cool and go hard we are tempted to throw them at the players.. :P
