Keyboard update

The BakkerElkhuizen keyboard from eBay had the D key not working. I shall return that and have won an auction for similar so we will see how my third attempt at a keyboard goes. The ailing Cherry keyboard that I brought home from work turned out to have screws hidden under a label so it was difficult to open until I discovered them. It also required two different kinds of screwdriver.

The pressurized gas cleaner was ineffective and Pippin our cat certainly did not like the noise it made. Disassembly and inspection of the Cherry keyboard did yield fruit: I seem to have fixed it by removing ( the detritus )

. I will take the keyboard back to work tomorrow morning to test-drive it properly. In my testing this afternoon I discovered that with multiple keyboards attached to a computer I can toggle all the caps lock lights by depressing any one of them.

Slowing down again

I probably get nearly enough done at home but in recent weeks I have not been making much headway. Often I would be glad to finally get some free time for myself and I would relax a bit then notice or think of things that needed doing and get up and do them. More recently I sit down and rest then time passes yet I remain content just to be largely motionless in mind and body despite the to-do list.
