Tomorrow I'm gonna look into buying a stand for my MacBook that makes working a little easier :thinktink: My screen is only 11" and I'm working in the living room on a small table from the couch.. My back hates me so much :blobcatgiggle: So if you don't mind I'm gonna spend a little from the donations on it, I'll keep it cheap ofc and it will improve the workflow (drastically I think) :ablobcatlurk:

@stux please do! Are you talking about a standing desk? Do you also need a decent chair?

@stux Get a TENs unit, too for $32. Change your life. I wear one most of the day for my back now. They're an amazing technology for chronic pain. https://www.amazon.com/TENS-7000-Digital-Unit-Accessories/dp/B00NCRE4GO/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=tens&qid=1667950621&sr=8-4

@stux this sounds eminently reasonable. maybe you could treat yourself to a refurbished macbook with a 12" display so your eyes don't go, as well! i'd contribute to that. gotta' stay healthy, mate. :)

@stux Go for it! I thought my 13" laptop was small. Take care of your back (and eyes).I worked from a dining table for almost a year when WFH started due to the pandemic and it was hard on my eyes and back.Finally had to set up a proper workspace because WFH isn't over yet.Good luck!

@stux While you're sitting in an ergonomically correct chair, the top of your screen should be at eye level.

@stux Consider this another vote of support from one of your monthly donors to spend some of that money on the tools you need to take care of yourself!

@stux @stux personally I'd say: get yourself a monitor, mouse and keyboard. Please use a proper setup. I'm dealing with a herniated disk right now, and I really really REALLY recommend against trying that for yourself.

@stux oh my goodness yes you should. I have a 38” monitor plus a secon 30” next to it and I am so much more efficient. Get the best you can fit in your home. I am sure many of us would gladly chip in more if/when you need it. I just upped my contribution after seeing the great place you made for us here. Thank you. Ps. I love the Logitech Mx m3 mouse and keyboard for my set up. So I can toggle between machines. I mainly use a surface book tho as. Am a Microsoft girl. 😊
