Wishing you the best of recoveries. I literally decided to shelve the new SIM program for my mobile in the too-hard-basket a minute before I came across your article. SIM cards are made for young fingers. the little drawers in the side of mobiles are made for young fingers. Passwords before and after inserting said card (that I had to travel for 6 km, on foot and by bus, to nearest mobile phone shop open on a Monday) are the work of people sitting at desks with little regard for how people are supposed to manage. The password they sent me had a 30 minute use by time. No way in the world was I going to be able to get online in a large shopping centre ... etc etc. Too hard basket. Now to get my money back.

Ah yes. The "too hard" friendships. I have a couple of those but rather than abandoning them I put them into an occasional pile. Then there is the "way too hard" pile. These are people whose variance from me results in my swift retreat. Too hard tasks, however, I often relish.
