Mouse Click Fatigue

My right hand is getting sore. I've just realised there are so many records that have been updated eg Marriage and Birth records. I've found so many cousins. With the surname being fairly rare all 1915 + are easy to look up as they don't seem to have spelling problems though I must admit I haven't tried the 1911 census yet. I've found countless Bullivants. And then there's the London Parish Records. I've got to stop I'm getting repetitive Strain injury.

Change hands DW. I do quite often, I'm not ambidextrous though.

Re: Mouse Click Fatigue

I cannot use a mouse with my left hand.

I might be able to use a cat though.

Re: Mouse Click Fatigue

My Cat just sits on my arm. Not really useful. At least she doesn't walk over the keyboard like my old cat.

I wonder if the cat has any ancestors called Felix?
