Challenges & solutions

Now that we're sailing I'm finding that there are a few 'out of the norm' challenges with being on the open sea:

Challenge:  Walking
Solution:  Take smaller steps than normal

C:  Climbing stairs
S:  Pretend you are on the stair stepper at the gym on the setting where it changes the difficulty whenever it pleases.

C:  Typing at a desk that has a slilding keyboard tray
S:  Either set the keyboard on the desktop or use your leg to keep the tray in place.

C:  Shaving legs
S:  Slowly

C:  Sleeping
S:  Either pretend that you don't hear items rolling around in cuboards and drawers or frantically use your flashlight to figure out what is making the constant noises.

C:  Sitting on a chair at work that rolls & turns
S:  Make sure you are wearing good grippy shoes that are able to stop you quickly so as to not get a gut ache or whip lash.

Currently praising that I am not seasick and do not feel nauseous whatsoever.  Please send some prayers up for those that are feeling green and prayers for the fuel bunkering that will be happening today.
