I'm hopeless with my left hand, so you have my sympathy.

I didn't have a skin graft after all so I hope I won't be immobilized for the whole 10 days.<br /><br />Meanwhile Dave fell on the ice by our garage as we were leaving for the hospital. He didn't break any bones but wrecked his knee and couldn't bear weght on it until today. He's having an awful time and he's on pain meds. Some people will do anything to get out of washing dishes!! ;D<br /><br />I wish I were ambidextrous like my aunt. She was a natural lefty back in the day when that wasn't allowed so they made her write righthanded. She grew up to be a bookkeeper who could do the books with either hand.Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04179027379034179865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4331783333799799045.post-52299061240634800102012-01-19T14:27:51.328-05:002012-01-19T14:27:51.328-05:00I hope things went well, Barbara!I hope things went well, Barbara!Belle Wonghttp://msbookish.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4331783333799799045.post-29491033783265697142012-01-19T02:11:45.435-05:002012-01-19T02:11:45.435-05:00I'll cross legs, eyes, fingers and toes... as ...I'll cross legs, eyes, fingers and toes... as soon as I post this comment!Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01774383554326288663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4331783333799799045.post-10819789007323580122012-01-18T16:10:45.821-05:002012-01-18T16:10:45.821-05:00Barbara, five years ago I had surgery (also on my ...Barbara, five years ago I had surgery (also on my right hand) that necessitated me wearing a device that rendered my right hand useless for 3 long months. I became quite proficient at using the mouse left-handed because it just wasn't an option to give up trying, but typing?--it's amazing the synergy between two hands, even when you use only a couple of fingers of each...it was just tooooo frustrating.<br /><br />I hope all goes well for you and you enjoy your enforced downtime. :-)Debbie Rodgershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15630059470408161434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4331783333799799045.post-60766092079978484662012-01-18T13:15:15.474-05:002012-01-18T13:15:15.474-05:00Well, I hope the procedure isn't painful.

Be sure to moan a lot. You'll get waited on more that way. lol I'll keep you in my thoughts.Margothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07422981969760935118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4331783333799799045.post-77201837015873961332012-01-18T12:37:27.194-05:002012-01-18T12:37:27.194-05:00Ouch!
