Two months ago when we moved from
Colorado to California, I suffered a hand infection (cellulitis) and for a week
kept my right hand elevated while IV antibiotics were administrated. During
this time I didn’t do any writing, but I checked email and sent messages. I
suddenly learned to do things left handed. As an example I operated my computer
mouse with my left hand. At first this felt unnatural, and I couldn’t keep the
cursor in the correct spot, but with practice I became almost as proficient as
with my right hand. Now that I’m fully recovered, I’ve continued to use the
mouse left handed. Who says older people can’t change?

Hi Mike! Any chance you could add a "subscribe by email" gadget to your sidebar? It's the easiest way for me to follow new blog posts.
As the only left-hander in my family I learned years ago to use the mouse and pad with my right hand. Now, of course, I'm unable to do it with my dominant left hand.
