Shortened thumb = shortened posts

      This week I am skipping Manic Monday as well as a shortening my other posts.  As you may or may not know, on Saturday I managed to shorten my thumb by about an eighth of an inch using a mandolin slicer.  Thus it is rather uncomfortable and slow to type without it.  As soon as I get better at my typing without using the thumb (right now, I get sore form the weird angle I have to hold it), I will resume my normal posts.  For those of you who find this disappointing, I apologize and would undo the damage if I could.  Thank you for your support and good will.  Have a wonderful day.
