Mark chair disappointments

This day has been one of the worst days that I've had in great while I just really makes me feel appreciative of all the good days that I have. Sadly I know this power chair that my friend put together for me is just not going to work. Even though it Incorporated a lot of parts for my other chair this chair just does not fit me. The chair is painful And probably dangerous to my body parts as well. I was surprised I was able to get undressed last night I didn't have much choice. There's not a lot of folks I can call after midnight. I was able to get naked however and finally roll into bed. Getting up was a bit of a challenge not too much but still it was different. Early on I realized I could not get myself dressed I got myself maybe 91% dressed I couldn't get my shorts up over my hip and the shirt that I used today was one of those slippery nylon knit things and it kept riding up on me. The shoes were totally out of the question. I had to call in and cancel my appointments that assist so I couldn't go downtown like I usually do on Tuesdays. Missing my volunteer work Maybe stressed me out the most today. I really do enjoy my time at assist. I sat around all day trying to sit back and pressure release and I don't think I did a very good job. My butt hurts quite a bit tonight. I should get into bed soon as I can I watched the Jazz game as much as I could before I just got disgusted with how much we were losing by tonight. I spent a good part of the day watching movies on the big screen just because that was the best thing I could do to keep off of my butt was laying down in my chair sort of kind of. I look a mess and my building shows so much it's embarrassed myself. I think I'm going to have to have Olivia put me back in the black chair tomorrow I don't think I can stand this chair another week day. On top of all this I found I had a message on my cell phone from the wheelchair shop giving me some directions what I need to do to get the process functioning again. They gave me a fax number that I guess my doc has to fax the information to the wheelchair shop and then we'll start the process of setting up an appointment, i guess, for me to get measured and all that kind of stuff for the power chair. It's not going to be a quick situation I can tell that already I'll be surprised if I'm in a new week by   chair by my next birthday which is in February. Had not my caregiver my current caregiver been in the deep sleep mode and my other caregiver could not serve me until three or four this afternoon. She was in a little town called Clinton I believe in Utah County. Either way I would have been waiting for a while and maybe just maybe I could get into sign the my documents but that didn't happen today. Tomorrow is a bathing day. That means after my shower and dry down I'll be lifted into my chair with the lift. Like I said I'll probably go back to the little black guy and just try to recoup my butt as I can for the rest of the week.
