tail or nose to hit the space bar.
Dad doesn't like for me to use my mouth or teeth because I get slobber or 
tooth marks on the keys.

comes Daddy and I know that he wants the computer for a while. 
Hey,Jake,shoot me out a note will ya?

Love and lots of doggie kisses to ya
Sophie

Hey Joyce I understand typing one handed. Use the F and the J as a sort of 
home row. Think about the letters within one key from the J. Several 
letters. Think about the letters around the F. Several letters. Now make 
words using only the letters around each key. Make sure your position is 
right in front of the keyboard or at a slight angle depending on what you 
are typing.



This is the part that is hard, sometimes you just have to have your fingers 
on the real home row to find the letter you want to type. In my case my 
right hand was the only one in use. So my pinky was on the F, so the ring 
finger could reach down to type the C in your  name, then that same finger 
came up to type the E. It just takes practice and patience. But when you 
need to communicate, you will determine yourself to just learn. As you 
practice your speed and accuracy will increase. After a while you will get 
even more done around the house using your elbow in tandem with the working 
hand.



You can crochet with one hand also. I used my bed to rest the garment on, 
but with that right hand I was able, slowly, to put several rows on a 
poncho, double crochet. My pointing finger yarned over, then the same finger 
watched the tension, so the stitches were even.



Give me a call and we can work through this stuff, hugs.
