Today I had Minor surgery to correct a "Trigger Finger" ailment that has kept me grounded for awhile. I'v had it done previously to both Middle fingers (no comment) and it has been a quick and easy recovery. I was in and out of the outpatient surgery center within 2 hours which is really fast. Only about 30 mins in OR.
Typing isn't bad since I hunt and peck, but the mouse isn't easy as the cut was made at the base of the ring finger on the palm side and the doc seems to think I'm playing Baseball or something else that needs 6 inches of padding.
Anyway, I'm good. Thanks for all your inquiries

Wonderful! I know this is hard, but... quit typing for a little while... DR's ORDERS! Save it for the carving!
