It has been one crazy week here in Green Bay.
My Tuesday started fairly normally with my morning aide waking me up. Now there are 3 different aides who do my morning cares. The one who came on Tuesday is famous for telling me all her problems. We joke that she should pay me to be her therapist. Now I don't mind this, but its not the way I like to wake up every day. Anyway, on days that I don't go anywhere I wear a hospital gown like thing. It's very comfy. That is if it does not come undone in back, which it did on Tuesday. Now Kathy was nice enough to stop by early to tie me up..oh wait..well, you know what I mean. Then I go to check my emails, my computer now tell me I have a virus..So I run my anti-virus and find that my whole system has been deleted. OH SHIT!!!! That's the nicest thing I had to say at that moment. Now I had to search for my discs and everything I needed to replace the whole system. Oh this should only take a few....Months!
Now, these are the times when my disabilities get to me. Part of the Muscular Dystrophy I have is severe neuropathy in my hands. It kinds of feels like the pins and needles you get when you leg falls asleep...only it's constant. Now dropping things have become a usual hobby of mine. Well on Tuesday, I dropped my phone 3 times and almost ran it over once with my wheelchair. Now when I drop something, I have a reacher to pick it up. It's like a 3 foot pole with a claw at the end that opens and closes. I actually have 3 reachers...why 3 you ask? Well, say I drop a fork, I go grab the reacher and as I'm picking up the fork...I drop the reacher...then I need a reacher to pick up both the reacher and the fork...excetera...There was a time that I just said "Screw It" after dropping all three reachers. Then on Tuesday..the best thing to drop...A FULL CUP OF CRYSTAL LIGHT PUNCH. I guess you can say that the pink just fits my personality. I now have pink spots on both the Dining Room and Bedroom carpets.
I still have quite a bit to load back into my computer, but i am patient. Yes it was a bad day, but it wasn't the end of the world. One of my friends has asked for a picture of my bald head. It has grown back a bit but I will try to have my Dad take one at lunch on Saturday. He still has the Polaroid camera that he gave me for a birthday when I was little. I swear one day I will get a digital Camera. I have a flip cam but it won't let me download onto my computer. One day I will hopefully do a talky blog if I can.
Oh BTW..We had 78 degree weather on Tuesday and yesterday we had 5 inches of snow. WTF.
I hope you are all enjoying your Spring!
Be strong, be loving and Be Superb!

Are you kidding me, 78 and then 5 inches of snow. That's just wrong!
