I have an Acer laptop which is touch screen and touch controls so any accidental pressure on the machine such as bedding or lightly brushed clothing causes all sorts of inconvenient things such as erasing type without warning, (like it just did!)
Also I cannot write easily unless I lug it onto my lap and sit upright which isn't comfortable because of my catheter and diaper thats no fun to sit up on as the padding gets lumpy and feels like rocks but I daren't take it off as the damn catheter leaks and wet bedding is the last thing we need.
I've had to keep the catheter in permanently as the radiation treatment for the prostate played havoc with my bladder and bowels and they don't tell you about THAT little side effect, oh no, its 40 15 minute zaps and you'll be cancer free!
Oh and thanks to being in bed the damn mouse responds to any slight move by sending the cursor into the controls and causing havoc whilst I wonder what the hells going on!
I've been up all night so I'm not at my best and the damn bedbugs wait to the small hours to bite, interestingly they tend to attack at 3-4pm and 3-4 am. You could set your clock by 'em.
Sorry about this but I thought you should know the real truth about my condition and let me tell you that Tammy is a bloody saint because everything falls on her and she aint no spring chicken neither.
I love her to bits and only wish I could take the load off in any way which is why I tolerate her non stop politics stuff on the computer which stops me from my escapist tendencies to watch videos about model trains (Sams trains) and motorbikes and anything with WW2 aircraft - thanks Sarge for that recent clip.
