,

Thank you so much!! Those are excellent suggestions.

I will see if I can find something to adjust the height of my chair. I

cannot afford a new one, but I know that they make balance-balls that are

flat on the bottom and I have seen them on the Internet; I have thought

about getting one of those and putting it on my chair and sitting on

it--then it would not just help with the height, but also with my posture.

About the angled v-shaped book holder, do you know where I can find one of

those? I wonder if I could get one at " Staples Depot Max " . I think that that

is an excellent suggestion, and if I can find one or several of those, I

will try it out.

As for the lamps, I know I have another one somewhere that is (nearly)

identical to the one I have on the right side of my desk. It might be at my

mom's house, I am not sure. I will see if I can find it. Otherwise, I will

buy another one at Home Depot or Lowes.

Do you, or can anyone, direct me to some websites where there are pictures

and descriptions of different types of stretches that I can do at my desk,

or even just in general? It would help a lot if I could see pictures. I also

do know that some stretches make my neck and back hurt actually worse, but

some that I do do indeed make my neck and back feel better. Any websites

anyone can provide, or lists of stretches with descriptions, would be very

helpful.

Thank you again, , for your suggestions!! And I think it is awesome

that you made it through grad school and many desk jobs with all of your

back and neck pain problems and your dry eyes--that gives me hope yet!!
