twitchy





Parki and me this morning. Photo by Jeff.


Hey, I can actually manually type a bit these days. Ok, maybe it's still only a VERY little bit, but at least I'm not completely at the mercy of ViaVoice all the time.

The biggest challenge for me right now is going to be resisting the urge to plunge back into my regular schedule immediately. I'm relying on the kitchen timer again to force me to give my arms a break every 20 minutes or so. The old kitchen timer had a wimpy alarm that was too easy to ignore, so now I'm using one with a very obnoxious earsplitting ring that makes me jump when it goes off.

There must be an easier way! My arms are getting their break, but I'm getting way too twitchy. :-) Suggestions welcomed. I haven't been able to find a computer alarm that I can set to go off "every xxx minutes" without having to reset every time.
