My Owee



Im sure all of you are getting somewhat sick and tired of me whining about the physical traumas I'm having to endure at this point in time as a result, as I see it, my power chair in the shop and having to deal with other modes of transportation much less suited to my needs. I believe I mentioned it briefly yesterday but now the wound or whatever is on my arm is just or does not seem to be getting any better. I'd like to say it stasis I'd like to say that it's the same but I must be very careful with it that I don't aggravate it. I don't know what it is as far as what's causing the bruising I sort of suspect it might be something like a muscle issue of some sort I don't want to say a torn muscle that would be horrible and I don't know how that could have happened but something has happened and it's not getting any better I don't think not right now and it's again Friday which means no Services now till at least Monday I don't know what would happen if I went into the ER but I don't know if I would need to regarding this situation. I go to bed at night thinking that perhaps with the rest and such I will feel better in the morning or at least the arm will not hurt as much. But it's when I reach up for the triangle or the trapeze bar that I tend to possibly reinjure the appendage it really is frustrating. I'm not right side however I seem to be adjusting to the chair a little bit better. It's still not very comfortable and I don't think ever will be but I am being able to get from point A to point B. Today I went to Walmart and actually picked up a pair of hair clippers. I found some for $12 and Melissa seems to be pretty anxious but to cut my hair and I truly think she knows what she's doing. She does the whole thing for her son and her son is pretty much into the the current modern haircuts especially for minority kids the fade and all that kind of stuff. And my hair cutting is not super critical as far as critical cuts and straight lines and things like that I just want basically a buzz. There were clippers for 12 24 36 bucks even more if I really wanted to get fancy but it was so confusing because there are clippers for the hair and clippers for the beard and such and I wasn't sure which one to get finally I got some help from some of their folks which greatly assisted me. Sorry I got off on a bit of a tangent they're back to my arm today I had Melissa assist me on my shorts as usual getting them on it was a bit of a struggle but we did it I'd asked her to leave the top button undone but she did not and that caused some stress but I'm pleased to acknowledge that I was able to undo the button. I kind of got spoiled the other day when I spent the day without even button up my pants hiding everything with the safety belt of the chair. Tomorrow will be another challenge to see if I can get myself dressed and make myself presentable enough to go over for coffee or any place else that I go. Disable pull it off day before yesterday so we'll see what happens. I'm beginning to understand this chair a bit better and that is significant cuz I think that allows me to at least know I can sure I can dress myself or pull my shorts up and of course that's the biggie then I need to get it make sure I have a shirt that's big enough to cover all of my possible exposures. It's the 25th five more days April so I'd better get busy working on my kid letters for the month of May….
