the Fat Lady has sung. The 'E' light is on. It's all zeroes again on my Odometer.
Not to be overly dramatic, but my right hand is officially out of gas.
After struggling silently with my wrist, arm, and right hand for several years now, I can barely hold a steering wheel or a pencil. There are a million and one ways I could have taken better care of myself, I just never thought it would come to this.
Why a journal after all this time?
Just didn't want anyone to think I had suddenly lost my mind completely; and that might be the suspicion of some should I start posting left-handed stuff. It may take a long time to teach my left hand to do the basics; I have no idea how long.
I just don't want to dump a bunch of artistic crap on you good people without explanation.
BTW for the love of God, take breaks from your computers if you can't feel most of your fingers; apparently this problem can happen to anyone!
I love you All
As always, Love to
for keeping my head above the water and the carving knife away from my left thumb
