educational psych, carpal pain and getting organized

January has been a busy month with going back to school and getting back into the swing of things at work.

My only problem with work in my hand/arm/ shoulder and neck are killing me, but my husband keeps me focused on the healing aspects of the pain. Today it is better. I have been using my left hand all week long at work with the mouse and it has been very frustrating even though I use it that way at home on the weekends. Work is high pressure though and I have found that all the knowledge is somehow locked in my right hand or I guess my left brain. My husband is encouraging me to stick with using my left and assures me that using my right brain more at work will give me a new perspective. Sounds good.

The class I am taking is Educational Psych. It's interesting and I am looking forward to my field hours in February. The idea of teaching art is really exciting to me. I can't wait, even though I have too. I have all sorts of ideas to share and see how students respond.

As far as getting organized. We are doing some of that at home and I am working to become better organized at work as well. I just know I can be more efficient.

I want to do a new banner for Valentine's Day but not sure if I will have the time. We will see - signing off - Crabby Monkey - OUT! ;)
