A cool and rainy day

 I was so glad to finally get to my apartment complex, to push through the gate then through the parking lot up to the back door, I did roll up to the front of the building just to check things out to see if I'm missing anything I was not so I ended up going back to the apartment going inside and then just feeling the heat from the apartment it was nice. I like the heat from the heater that I purchased a few years ago but I leave going by the television station where I watch my Netflix another piece of entertainment. But what I really like on a day when it's cold and wet like today is when the bus picks you up and you roll into the moving sanctuary of heat that the drivers maintain. I know I complain about the drivers having the bus too cold in early spring as well as through the rest of the summer but they make up for that inconvenience of chelliness by having the heat on full blast. It's just really cozy to be on the bus and I sort of hate leaving it when I have to but I make a fast Dash for my gate when I get off at the apartment complex.


My little backup chair did good today. I cannot say I really enjoy the ride and the fact that it really sits me up straight and puts a lot of pressure on my isshiels and driving my chair any distance at all is very squirrely. When you stop your Forward Motion the chair continues to move quite a ways one has to be careful not to crash into other people as well as other pieces of property as well as traffic. Took me forever to get undressed last night and actually I was surprised that I was able to get dressed this morning as quickly as I did. I was able to get through the bus and get to the library hang out there for a while then over to my assist meeting. So it was a pretty functional day and mind you all this was happening while it was raining outside maybe not very hard but uncomfortably wet and uncomfortably cool. I wore one of the shirts that I purchased which is really too small which wore me out all day trying to keep it pulled down over my belly but I also wore one of my big giant hoodies that was kind of a mistake I didn't know what else to wear but I did good and finally had Jennifer at the assist Office zip me up for my return trip which is much nicer than my trip in as far as closing the hood goes. I was able to do my 1 hour workout though not as efficiently as I usually do but I was able to do it no I'm just at the end of my day finishing a few things my dictation being one of them. I watched the Jazz lose again tonight as much as I could take finally I turned the volume on the big screen down and then with the aid of my tablet was able to print the letters for the envelopes which I should and probably will stuff tomorrow for the mail out on Halloween day after tomorrow. I am totally pleased that I am now done with the most strenuous part of my week- - that I am aware of now. They brought the power chair back tonight from the wheelchair shop. They fixed a couple things on it which will get me through until they have to take it again and then I'll be in this chair again for a day. I suppose that's As Good As It Gets for a Tuesday with raining clouds…
