cattitude's) and my phone (bad for my hands and wrist).
I still need to be careful not to overdo things, but a move comfortable keyboard will I think make a major difference. Being able to move around the screen easily (with a proper mouse, and a "page down" button that does what it says instead of moving down one line of text) will also help, or at least reduce frustration.
There's still quite a bit to do, but this is both more progress, and a milestone that makes a difference, more than "we have filled another bookcase" does.
I'm still having to be careful about how much I do, because it still doesn't take much to make my hands and wrist hurt, especially my right wrist. I have my first session with the occupational therapist a week from tomorrow.
