It happened once again during the night
the month silently changed and now it's October in all its
October glory. I am not ready for
October, I really thought I had one more day this month, seriously-31
days but no just 30 days and I'm at the beginning of a new month.
It's a new month and I'm filled with
hope especially hope in October, the first full month a lot of when
the temperature will get really crisp the leaves will turn a drop in
the killer frosts will ensue making summer for sure thing of the past
and all things related with that summer particularly vegetables and
other items going in my patio garden. I made the call today, they
said they would get to my power chair until today Wednesday, so I
gave them all morning and called just before noon to get the news. I
think it's good news, kind of good news the chair should run and it
should charge though I don't really understand why did not charge in
the first place. Mario said something about it was only at 50 V and
that 50 V it is not enough for the charger to sense that the charger
needs to charge the batteries…? What is this mean trying to follow
his explanation in the kind of makes sense in a hopeful sort a way.
So I don't know why the voltage of the battery got so low it may be
the charger I just don't know but we will see now. I will no longer
use the old charger and rely primarily on the “new” charger that
came with the chair and hopefully that will make the difference
allowing me to charge the battery as it should. Somehow though in the
back of my mind I don't think that's going to do the trick I think
there's still something else wrong with the chair. Mario did say one
of the motors on th chair is going out which could be costly. I'm
crossing my fingers and holding my breath that the two motors I
purchased a couple years ago, used will be a fit for the motors that
seem to be going out now. I was very sure at the time that these
motors would work now I just don't know. And actually Mario is going
to check with the company/insurance to see if there's any way my
insurance might cover part of the cost of a new motor or two. If they
weren't that would be a riot however is a set of cross my fingers
holding my breath that these other motors will work. And hopefully I
don't think that sure is going to fail soon only if it does I will go
to this backup plan. Until then, I hope to use my chair as I have
been I just need to remember not to run the chair totally flat out
not to burn the motor up.
I put away my summer close today
Dianne's help, all the short sleeve shirts and all the shorts were
put in Big Blue bags that the fall and winter clothes were stored in.
We also put some clean on the room which is very much appreciated…
Since we had the extra room with the big power chair being gone right
now. So I'm officially ready for October and the rest of the winter
that's pretty exciting. So whatever happens with the power chair good
bad or in different I am ready
