I've had an English Bulldog at least 1 for the last 30+ years. Expensive shits, but well worth it. Also I cry like a baby each time one of them dies. This one is Chesty the 4th, and he's a mess. Chews my wife's collection of antique dolls up every chance he gets, chases kids and bites them (He's playing, but some of them don't know it), sleeps on top of my feet, and farts all the time

Awesome!!! I love dogs. One of my boxers loves shoes.. drives me crazy.. But he doesn't really tear them up. Just plays with them.

For the mean time, you might be able to switch the buttons around on your mouse in the settings in Windows/MacOSX. When I hurt my right hand a few years ago, I used my left hand to mouse for a while, and had to switch the click buttons...it was driving me crazy! I also found that I liked using one of those computer mice with a ball on top (where the mouse stays stationary, and you scroll a ball on top to move the mouse)

oh I didn't realize you could switch the buttons lol. thanks!

also, this is where I live...yesterday it was 25 degrees and snowing like crazy. tomorrow it's supposed to be in the 70s.

Just out of curiosity, and if you don't mind sharing. How many HITs did you have completed and did you have to have the 99.9% approval rating when you got yours?

I was around 50,000? then and I've had my account since 2011. I didn't start turking seriously until a couple years ago. So I'm definitely "older" but on the lower end of HITs, for sure. I do have 99.99%

I'll look into that too, but it's more the mouse that's bothering me. I'm going to try using my nondominant hand for it, at least until I can get to the doctor tomorrow

I think they have curved/ball type mice like that too to ease wrist strain but it’s been awhile since I looked.

@savvylabell gets credit for the vertical mouse. She uses one and I wanted to be cool like her.

Awesome!!! I love dogs. One of my boxers loves shoes.. drives me crazy.. But he doesn't really tear them up. Just plays with them.

My yorkie pup likes to take a flip flop which is longer than him and prance around the house with it like he’s the king of the world.

You know what really sucks?

Having to pay for uncapped internet raising my damn bill. So I don't get an installation fee but since my deal was expiring I had to find a new one and to keep my same internet speed..I paid 10 extra dollars for basic cable..no equipment fees..

So in all my comcast bill goes from 100 to 129 for a 3 year deal.

My Comcast is going up to $130 after this month too.... I am really tired of them and considering switching to Sonic but I am really worried that going from 250 Mbps to 60 will really hurt my work flow.

Good morning Have a terrific day!

 

[An Island in the Sun]

I don’t even get a choice in internet, Im locked into one provider here.

oh I didn't realize you could switch the buttons lol. thanks!

also, this is where I live...yesterday it was 25 degrees and snowing like crazy. tomorrow it's supposed to be in the 70s.

We must live pretty close to one another lol...I'm in Southern Indiana, about 45 min north of Louisville. My husband works down there.

 

[thotticus]

[ChristopherASA]

I'm pretty sure I shared a hit earlier about ride sharing by darius something or other but now I can't find it. Anyway it won't show a code and he's aware of that.
