Long story - I'll make it short. Fractured right wrist. So have to type left handed only. Goes extremely slow typing. This much took about 2 min.

Sorry to hear of the wrist, let me know if I can help with anything, I am close enough if you need a hand. Or your driveway cleared.

I remembered the name from my Military Basic training days.

I had the same problem. I went on sick call with it. The first shirt said "you had better not come back" I didn't. Since I was in basic training I was hospitialized until it healed, and then had to start basic all over again. Fortunately it was my left wrist, because I'm right handed. It was about 5 months before I got out of the hospital with it.
