Blogging is Bad for My Health
It’s been a long time coming, but this week I have had to face facts: I cannot physically work on the computer for any significant length of time. My neck is messed up, my shoulder is messed up, my back is messed up. While massage, chiropractic, ice, and rest have been improving those areas to a degree, it has not been enough improvement that I can return to significant computer work. Five minutes on the desktop is too much, and now the laptop is beginning to bother me as well.
So what occurred that necessitated my facing facts this week? Well, during my regularly scheduled monthly chiropractor appointment, I mentioned that my wrist had been bothering me. Sure enough, it need adjustment! When I mentioned that I didn’t think I had been on the computer that much (especially compared to the hero, a CAD producer, who is on the computer all day at work), Doc said, “everybody’s different”. I knew then that I need to learn to severely control my computer time.
Like I said, this has been a long time coming, but my hope is this: when I admit the truth, somehow I will be able to then devise a good solution. Ignoring the problem hasn’t been working for me. At any rate, I am keeping the blog alive for now; I still like blogging , still enjoy the conversation, and still have stuff to say.
Blessings!
