mamadebI'm currently wearing a craft glove on my right hand. See, I've decided I really need to write steadily - get in the habit of writing an hour a day on something. And this is the fourth day, and I don't know if this will jinx it.
But I'm prone to carpal tunnel syndrome. Typing is not one of my normal stressors, but I don't normally type for an hour straight, either. When I finished this morning, my wrist hurt. It's not numb yet, which is good, but it didn't feel right.
Needlework *is* a stressor, so I do my cross stitch with a craft glove - a lycra glove that covers my palm and comes with a velcro wrist strap. The strap supports my wrist and makes a tremendous difference. With it on, I can cross stitch during a marathon filk session. Without it, an hour's work hurts.
I hope it works for this. Because I'm typing a lot right now. And because I've finsished one story *and* revised it, and I've written 1400 words of a new story, and I'm starting the day feeling productive.
