Morning all. Margaret, the haze in the air is smoke. I heard there were some fairly significant forest fires up north right now. And yes it is good to see Don up and around, but it will be better to see him able to sit down again.
Morning all. Good to see the birthday boy around. Standing at the keyboard, Don?
(If your current problems are an extension of your back woes: my mother has a bad back and had issues with muscles in her butt too, and now has one of those 'kneel' chairs. I can't stand it myself, but she swears by it. She's an editor and does a lot of typing. Just a suggestion in case you've not considered it. example )

I have a kneeling chair and really like it - the one I have is like the least expensive one on that page the link takes you to. Mine isn't very adjustable and is not a very good fit for me, but still it's better for me than a chair at the same price would be.
I'm going to check into the ones with more options and see if I can find one locally.
Don, you might find it's just the ticket. You would think that "kneeling" would be hard on the "knees" but I have bad knees and it doesn't seem to affect me.

Actually, on the couch with the MBP on a solid wooden hard place mat on my tummy. Interesting chair though.
Sean, if I survive, our trip would be in mid July, but the wife's sister has had a change of plans and that may not happen. Everything is up in the sir right now.
Only problem my mother has with the kneeling style chair is she wears out the toes on her sheepskin slippers. If you've not tried one yet - do try it ... but apparently it takes some getting used to.
(And Margaret uses it ... and my mother is from Saskatchewan ... so it's probably the perfect solution for a prairie boy. )

Don, hopefully you are feeling better by mid July and your wife's sister has a change of plans again and you make it out this way, so you and Margaret and I can have our mini-meet.
Hi all
Just popped in for a minute. Thinks are slowing down for the summer ... finally. All our Relays are finished for this year. They are are our biggest fundraisers and the most work to put on.
Mamma and I will be heading west to see our grand daughter and spend her first birthday with her. She is growing into a little sweetheart. we'll be leaving mid July and be gone for almost six weeks. I am looking forward to it.
