I Feel Lucky

It's Monday and I feel lucky. Not lucky and something greats going to happen but more lucky in that everything great has happened to me, more or less, so far and I need to just acknowledge that I'm grateful. I literally rolled in the bed at night. I'm able to lower my bed to about 6 inches below my power chair and then with an arm hooked into my trapeze lift up my back side and then plummet onto the bed. I'm doubly blessed then I sleep through the night more or less a begin waking about 4 ½ hours after I tumble into bed. Then I get out of bed. Once again, I raise my bed – – the electric bed – – to about 4 inches are 6 inches above my power chair swing my feet and my foot rests then pull myself down onto the chair again letting gravity do most of the work. Once I'm in the chair I'm just partially in that I have to power my chair to lean the whole seating system back and then at a certain point I deploy the back of my chair which leads me back further allowing gravity to allow me to pull myself and push myself more straight in my chair. Seriously, this technology is what makes me independent. I would like to think I could be independent without all this technology but something in the back of my mind says no. There was a time when I could do this in my manual chair no problem at that time is long gone. So, I am one lucky taco.

It's Monday and I feel lucky. I just finished my wash for the first part of the week. I watched a close twice a week usually. If I don't have anything better to do on Monday. And then on Friday or Saturday depending on what's going on over the weekend. Just in case I'm lucky enough to go out and do something with other humanoids want to be looking somewhat appropriate. I'm lucky because I can load the money onto the change slots on the machines and then press them.Usually, the money thing does not come back on its own and I have to use a hook to pull back on the change slots which basically starts the washer and dryer. I am fortunate that I still have a number of sticks and manufactured over the years which allow me to do this facet of my home independence. I felt this way especially this morning as I happen to enter the laundry just as my dryer was patient cycle. I used the hook rubber tipped end to open the door of the dryer. My fingers are not firm enough to open the doors. I hope the end of the hook in the slot where fingers usually go and angle the hook so it pries the door open. I have to be careful here because I have torn a whole door mechanism off before. They were good to me and I appreciated that they did not charge me anything for the destruction to the property. I felt bad more of my destructive nature. Luckily both washer and dryer front loaders I can pull the wash and dry right out.I pile the warm mess on top of my lap and take the whole wash back to my apartment to begin the folding and hanging process.

It's Monday and I feel lucky and blessed to have this chore out of my way. I still have clothes to hang But that's okay maybe it will do it tonight. Right now I have to finish my rickshaw routine and then I'm on hand bike for an hour. I still might make a salad for dinner I have to use the salad materials before they all go bad.

It's Monday and I feel lucky I have my staff coming in tonight to give me a bath in the first proof of the week how much more lucky can one get?.
