Ouch, it hurts!

Oooiii! It has been, like, ages that I didn't touch this blogpost. Few reasons might sound as classic excuses, but yes, I've been sooooo busy. Don't mention for how long I've paused because two years may seem as 'lazy', not 'busy'. Kids pampering, house remaking, parents group meeting at school, are some of the excuses. Oh, and one thing. The sluggish laptop. I'd been wanting for a new computer so much that I only did limited kind of activities with it. Now there is no complaint since we have managed to earn a new one. Of course, this might be a good reason to start blogging again! However, I notice that my right arm is hurt. The lower part of the elbow and near the armpit. I think it is strained, and it feels even worse when I'm typing or gaming in my mobile phone. Somehow I think that is a reason of putting my laptop in a lower position than my chest (since I'm temporary lack of chair and desk) and, been clicking mouse for so many times in an improper angle, could worsen the pain. I know this all started from two months ago. As a committee (actually, the chairman) of parents group meeting to held a memorable farewell party for my kindergarten-graduated son, I did lots of typing - and texting, since all members were busy kind of mothers that could not easily spare their time to gather in the meeting - and so the pain began. I even try to employ my left hand more (an attempt to be an ambidextrous, without success) while bathing, applying makeup, picking up things, to reduce the pain. It has no effect at all, since I'm not left-handed and it is innate for me to use my right hand in all activities. But then I realize, I've been interacting intensely with gadgets: ipad, ipod, tab, blackberry, typing, texting, touching ... and it hurts even more. So THAT might be the cause! I'm too much doing those click and tap and being in an inadequate position for so long! The point is, I still need to do those typing, texting, clicking and tapping ... doing things with your fingers are not always healthy, for sure .. Okay, ointment ... where are you??
