lynnestankard.....thank you for the kind "wrist thoughts"....actually yesterday and today have been the most painfree and the least awkward since the bookcase doors "attacked" my wrist......typing is still difficult....yes, that ole one finger hunt and peck is not the fav huh? but i predict another few days and i will be even better....smile....and on monday i return to the first grade classroom....hope i will be ready....thanks again for thinking of me.....lilly
