i know this is off-topic, but i will make it sort of on topic by saying that huel certainly makes food less hassle when one arm is out of action.
i slipped on wet steps on wednesday and landed full weight on my arm a low wall. i screamed and swore like a total lunatic, but it’s situations like this that swearing was f***ing invented for!
trying to get used to using the computer one handed. i am right handed and its my right elbow thats broken.
i work from home doing website stuff. haven’t told my main client about my elbow. i am still managing to get some work done, it just takes me longer with one hand. i am hoping december will be a quiet month and they won’t notice.
making huel with one hand is ok, just takes a bit longer.
i hope you’re all well. if you have two hands, don’t take them for granted. tying shoe laces is really easy with two hands, but not totally impossible with one.
Best I ever did was a fractured and dislocated shoulder…my good arm too…so I can sympathise…hurt for months…worst long term is my knee ligaments, still play me up 12 or 13 years later, while fractured ribs are painful too. Ho hum.
@Marcus, just in case you find it useful - have you ever heard about one-handed keyboards and/or “mirrorboards”? There are hardware ones, but there are also programs or “settings” (even free) for different OSes that you can run to make your normal keyboard work as a mirrorboard. And they are crazy useful.
The most interesting thing is that learning to use them takes minutes, so much so that I got into them voluntarily just to be able to work my keyboard one-handed while keeping my other hand on the mouse, while working in a CAD-like environment.
Hey, thanks for the suggestion. Today I have actually rediscovered the voice recognition function in Google Docs. In fact, I have just used it to type this reply. It’s not perfect but it is easier to correct something with one or two mistakes than it is to type one handed.
