I think the ends of my typing fingers must to be too big for those little electronic squares. I notice some people use a thing like a pencil and some young ladies have extra long thin fingernails and type at a rate so fast I can't imagine how they do it.Gwil Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03305768121713053837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-74812983867841673492019-02-03T21:02:01.953-08:002019-02-03T21:02:01.953-08:00Last week it rained a lot here, and I was housebou...Last week it rained a lot here, and I was housebound.

It saves the post as a draft without publishing it, and you can go back to the last saved version if you lose your post. Don't know if that function is available to you. The trick is remembering to save it often when writing.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03107838233635613580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-16065138295158352322019-02-03T16:05:01.574-08:002019-02-03T16:05:01.574-08:00I truly empathize with your essential tremor. My ...I truly empathize with your essential tremor. My husband has it and I see how very much it can limit you. He had such gifted hands as a jack of all trades, mostly a mechanic, very adept at welding, etc. Slowly he had to give it all up, can't write a check anymore. I pray that I'll live long enough to be here to help him as long as he needs me. He never complains, and doesn't seem upset when his coffee sloshes out of the cup in a restaurant, just takes it all in stride. You have to! There's nothing else you can do. You are a wonderful inspiration to anyone - I admire your courage and determination to stay active and involved.<br /><br />I hadn't read your son's poetry before - oh my! I especially love the barn poems. He's blessed with quite a talent. Could be inherited from someone we all know and love?Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14367791485727217874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-6667518703561135472019-02-03T15:23:57.718-08:002019-02-03T15:23:57.718-08:00Oh, poor Weave.

I see the lady from the guesthouse where you stay almost every week as she also comes to the Golf Club where we eat. We often speak of you.<br />Joanne - I do hope your tremor doesn't get any worse, you have enough things to put up with without anything else.<br /><br />Thanks everyone.

At first I worried that it might be Parkinsons disease, but she is still perfectly active and vibrant (retired now), so I'm thinking she shares your condition. I think your situation, living with lots of people around you, is perfect, and what I would like to aim for in the future. -Jenncoffeeontheporchwithmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17618627688821849806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-71717104923133731302019-02-03T03:58:03.813-08:002019-02-03T03:58:03.813-08:00I know nothing about the technicalities of prepari...I know nothing about the technicalities of preparing an item for a blog, so feel free to ignore this, but wonder if it is possible to type a post in something like Word and then copy and paste it into the blog format. At least that way, if you lost it while trying to post, you'd still have a copy of the draft on your computer. Again, I don't know if this is technically possible, but just a thought.
