I’m almost scared to admit how many hours a day I spend on the computer, and if you calculate television time, my nook reader, and my iPod it’s downright frightening.

Oh – I know how you feel! My worries right now are for my back, neck and shoulders. They hurt often and I know it is from being on my computer so much. I am thinking of seeing a chiropractor. Do you have this issue too? Great post – on my way to read the rest! Thanks
Let me know if the chiropractor helps. I have tendinitis in my wrist which is starting to get a lot worse lately. The things we do to stay connected. I hope you like the post.
