Working Wednesday

 Something's definitely changing with me. I don't know what it is but it's showing itself with me sleeping longer. I guess that's not necessarily A Bad Thing but I've just never really slept long hours before and it's kind of unsettling. This morning again I didn't wake until about 7:00 a.m. and I probably didn't really get to sleep until 1:00 a.m. which is later than usual for me. I didn't even take time to read last night cuz it was so late and I was pretty darn tired. I felt okay today except for paying on my right side where I think my power chair is really putting pressure on nerves on the right side of my back and I think part of that goes to my arm. I may have to talk to one of my docs about this to see if this is an ongoing issue or if I I was just worn out my ability to use this chair or what. I want to go gently into that argument just because of all the problems I've had with other chairs that I've used as backup chairs. Overall, I like this chair even though it's painful for me I know it knows me we pretty much act well together except for things that I don't think can be undone. I think a lot of it has to do with me and where my body is at this point in my life it may be getting weaker- - which is not really shocked me very much after all 75 What can you say? So I continued to get up every morning early enough to do what I have to do whether it's getting myself dressed or getting myself ready for my home care person whenever she shows up to do my morning program. I will do this until I can't any longer make the transfers from bed to the chair without issue. I still don't have really any problems rolling into bed at night. And I haven't had any really getting up it's just always kind of spooky I haven't fallen for a while and that's a good thing but sometimes things happen and for one reason or another I find myself on the floor. I really haven't used it very much but I do have a voice activated assistant I'm careful to what I address it as. But the one time I really need to use it it came through 100%. I was so impressed it was my major thought changing process to possible, maybe working with AI and how it might assist me to live as independently as possible even though the whole thing scares me to death. I will use whatever I need to use to keep myself independent and able to care for myself with extended supports even.

Am I going to bed process one of the last things I do before I roll into bed just make sure that I have my battery charger connected or wrapped up in my chair one way or the other so that when I need to I can plug the cord into my power chair and start the charging process. Like I said it's the last thing I really do before I roll into bed for the night. I don't know what happened last night but when I rolled into bed turned over and looked out towards the charger expecting to see the light orange which means it's charging the green blinking light was still blinking meaning that I had not plugged the charger end of the chair meaning that I'm going to have to survive with whatever Powers left in my chair it was about 85% when I went to bed. There are times when this has happened and I really pushed myself to get back up transferred into my chair grab the charger cord and plug it into my chair. Last night however, I couldn't do it I was just too tired and if that meant keeping myself limited to the apartment complex here even though the day was supposed to be in the 80s, the first day of the year for that to happen, I would just bite the bullet and wait until tonight and charge it again hopefully maybe do something tomorrow. It should be another fairly warm, abnormal, weather day. It was a good day I pretty much hung around the apartment complex which is okay cuz it's Wednesday which is wash day and I was running back and forth from my apartment to the laundry and back numerous times. I also got a Mormon food box and I spent a good part of the days trying to sort it out trying to know what to keep and what not to keep. More on this and another point in time I'm sure now I need to get to bed early tomorrow is coffee social I like to go to coffee social...
