To be perfectly honest, I'm killing time before the tip off of the latest Jazz basketball game. It's an away game and it starts at 8:30! I can't believe they're starting to game that late but they're in California I guess so it's really 7:30 their time but even then that's late at least that's what I think. Anyway, I've gotten a little down crested with this team because I think they're just going to lose anyway so why even worry about watching them but there's always the chance that they may come through and keep their points that they usually make the first quarter of this game and hold on to that towards the end. That hasn't worked too well for them but it's worked a couple times who knows this might be another day. At least I'm somewhat supportive of them a little bit. I like the guys on the team I don't know if I like the team in general though- - does that make sense? I don't know for sure. Anyway, I've made a little progress I think on fixing some of the problems I'm dealing with right now in a mechanical level. I tortured myself trying to make a decision this morning on what to purchase to fix this chair the power chair or no the power bed rather and I purchased a motor actuator that should fix the bed I just hope that it does. I'm just cruising on the bed until the last electric mechanism on it breaks then I'll be in a big trouble if I don't get it fixed. Tomorrow I have my assist meeting in Salt Lake and I should go over to u c a t and see if they've got something that can help me with this chair that I'm in right now with the arm release that won't work. But I'm not going to be able to do that because I'm going to be having coffee with one of my friends tomorrow after my assist meeting. I don't think I'll have the energy to go back into the city after coffee that leaves only Thursday to get back to the agency to see if they have a piece that might fix my armrest release. Luckily when the kids were here on Sunday we figured out how to undo the armrest that I'm using now it just takes a lot of patience in a little bit of luck. Tonight I had both and so at least right now I have the arm free and I'll be able to get to bed and up in the morning. So hopefully I'll be able to do everything until Thursday and hopefully Thursday I can get this fixed. So if the piece comes in and I fix the bed and fix this chair I'll have anything and everything I would like to have for Christmas I guess. Boy I sure wondered all around with that one didn't I?
I spent the day in the apartment there really wasn't anything for me to do on the outside that I wanted to at least where I'd have to subject myself to the elements. My caregiver this morning Melissa indicated it was so cold that she could barely stand it and she's a tough little cookie. That was just enough to keep me busy around the apartment. I did my usual I blogged and did my own bike made some coffee and overall enjoy the apartment- - I am so lucky to have such a nice place to live.
