I cooked a frozen pizza tonight. I really wanted something different than what I've usually been eating in the evenings you know the canister or a can of soup. Maybe a frozen burrito or something else from the freezer. I guess I could have actually cooked spaghetti or something like that I think I have all the ingredients if I wanted to go through that much trouble but I figured tonight was the end of a pretty cold day for this time of year. I went outside once today that was to take some garbage out to the dumpster and that was enough for me. My body sweating a lot right now I think I have some pain somewhere that's not registering this pain as much as it's registering a sweat which I only bring up because the moisture sits on my skin and makes everything else feel colder especially a trip out to the dumpster. I can mitigate the sweating if I adjust my wait baby do a significant pressure release from off my cushion. The sweats are a relatively new phenomenon one that I think most quads get a lot of that I never really experienced except for the last two or three years. I'm sure it's just another function of age for me everything's a function of age for me it seems like.
I was pleased with the way the pizza turned out. It's funny how you think you have a really big piece of something judging from the box that you buy from the market then when you open up the box, the cardboard paper box, the item is pretty small. I thought it was pretty small when I opened up the pizza box and put it in my cooking box that I put inside the oven. The fit into the box very well and did a fairly good job on cooking the pizza. The pizza was relatively small but way more than I can eat in one setting. I suppose I could but I don't want to tip the scales on anything especially and welcome poop. I was a bit nervous about the new caregiver that I've just gotten but she's willing to come over and assist me cleaning up if I have an unscheduled poop, a blowout. I think I would still contact Melissa if she could come over but Olivia too would be helpful. Between the two of them I think one might be available any given time should I need some emergency help. Once I got the thing cooked and out of the oven there's quite a bit of food there and if I have any bodily control at all enough to last me for a day or two maybe even longer. I enjoy cold pizza I always have. If you're with a group of people and you're the only one who will eat cold pizza and enjoy it you greatly increase your odds I think of surviving on pizza. Even more if you have no compunction or issues with eating the leftover pizza crust. You know the end of the pizza that nobody eats. I've seen major pieces of pizza crust get thrown away just because nobody eats the end of the pizza. A pizza crust with this one. I think I'll probably have even 2 days of pizza if I'm conservative and if I put it in the refrigerator but that's not a real biggie on my side I don't mind if it dries out Pizza is the best I think, survivors food.
I don't know if it's me or the wheelchair I'm using now but it's taking me longer and longer to get dressed in the mornings- - I'll nose mornings I don't have a caregiver here to fit my clothes on. My best system for getting dressed particularly when the chair seems to be aggressing against me is the have patience and just keep trying regardless. It used to be a big deal for me to try to put my shoes on as I put in my shorts on. The lesson that I've been given over and over again is to just put my shorts on then put my shoes on if I'm going to wear shoes. This method allows me to get dressed just so I appear to be decent. I would have liked to have gotten over to the coffee shop earlier but with the troubles I had getting my shorts on I was glad to get over there at all about 9:30. The coffee shop is pretty quiet the group table was pretty much busy and Michelle came over to sit with me as soon as I got situated. I know this must look pretty bad but I guess it gives her somebody to sit with it let's me have someone to talk with as well which is okay the trade-off's worth it. I just hope she's not getting any thought processes that's any more than just having coffee. She lives in Utah County with her very straight family members and loves too come to Salt Lake County and specifically this coffee shop with your brother-in-law the drink coffee and visit with her group and now me whenever I show up and she's here. She's only able to get away a couple times a month so it's okay that way.
I spent the rest of the day working on kid letters and watching Netflix or the Disney Channel IE Marvel. I did enjoy the pizza tonight it was a treat I just hope I don't explode before Monday morning..
