~GORGEOUS WEEBLE~

Someone asked me today what really IS a WEEBLE.. :-)

Well that photo is a weeble.. its a childs toy, they can be a

person or animal whatever.. I picked that one cuz its so cute.

But a weeble..look at the bottom ..see ? its rounded..You can

push this toy down any way.. but it wont stay. When you take

your finger off it will go back to the upright position.. The ONLY

way for it to be any other way is to be held..It only knows one

way and that is upright..or straight on..

I refer to my self as a GORGEOUS WEEBLE..which is SO true,

:-D ..and everyone says "YES DEAR" lol.. I call myself that cuz

even though I don't have a rounded bottom like that, mines kinda

flat, you want the truth.. but I refer to myself as one because of the

fact they always come back up and wont stay down unless they

are forced to..they will spring right back up. I don't SPRING right

back up..but every time Ive moved too fast or did a wrong move

and fell over, that's why I laugh at myself cuz that's how I feel then,

like a weeble, as I just kinda get right back up, since usually

I am falling over cuz im in a hurry and moving too fast, sometimes

its not a good thing to do. specially if there are people around,

and wearing skirts like I do....ok ..lets NOT go there lol, lets

just say I try NOT to do that lol..

I did notice the other day, I was in a hurry ..and I was trying to get

back into my chair in the morning..the phone was ringing and I

forgot to bring it into the bedroom with me. I will be glad when I

can get a phone in there and not have to take this one with me

every nite..I either forget it at nite or forget to take it out of there

in the morning and I have NO choice but to TRUDGE all the

way back in there to get it.. if I forget it at night I just hope whom

ever is calling will let it ring about 10 times and give me a few

to get out to it..in the morning I have to put it back onto its base

so it can recharge....anyway ......

When I move around on my bed, my arms are not long.. I cant

reach the floor even- only my finger tips.. so when I try to move

or maneuver my self around on my bed.. I have to ball up my

hand into a fist to be able to have enough height to move my...

umm.. FLAT :-D butt around on the bed..and pull my skirt with

me so I don't end up leaving it behind.. lol.. When I pushed down

to raise my self up to go to the next position.. my wrist gave out

and my hand kinda snapped..like an ankle would if you step

wrong and your foot goes sideways.. that really hurt..and gave

me pause to think..I broke my ankle once doing that and had to

have a cast on, and I thought that my hand and wrist were really

LIKE my ankle and foot now.. its the only way I can really move

isnt it? even in my chair.. My hands and wrists are now my feet

and ankles.. lol.. If I am not careful..and watch my weight I could

very easily snap my wrist.. that would NOT be good. I try to be

very careful now when I am moving around on my bed..

When I am moving on there, to just move from one end of it to

the other involves a lot more movement than if I was standing

at one end and walked to the other...to move on the bed, end

to end takes a lot of movements on my part..and its not easy,

as soft as a bed is.. and If I get too close to the edge, which

I have done..Ive almost slid right off onto the floor.. I had fun

once tho.. I tried to put up that stinkin curtain rod..and I piled

those pillows up and climbed up..I had almost reached the

top to put that thing up..and I started to slide.. I fell off those

pillows and I swear I actually bounced lol.. well was a bed..

every thing no matter how much they WEIGH will bounce lol..

anyway that was kinda fun..I laughed at my self then too..

like I did the other day when I almost did the splits when I

was half on and half off the couch ..now..if I really had hit the

floor..well no, I would NOT have laughed..I probly woulda been

kinda MAD.

I was in my other apartment and I had pulled up to the kitchen

sink.. I didn't lock down and I dropped something ..don't know

now what, and I just held onto the sink with one hand bent in

half to try to reach the floor..well..well my chair started to roll

back away from me.. I tried to pull it back with the hand I was

holding onto the sink with as I reached back to grab the chair

with the right..well..ya.. I pulled my own self right smack OUT

of that chair and just sat my butt right there on the floor in front

of my sink..didn't really hurt.. I landed on my ...um.. FLAT butt.

lol.. I laughed then.. I wasn't laughing tho 3 hours later when it

took me almost that long to get back in this chair ! Dutch had

big fun..he danced around me like "yippeee..Mom came down

here to play" I had to fight him off almost the whole time I am

trying to figure out a way to get back up in this thing..

Many see videos of amputees getting in and out of chairs like its

a breeze..well look at the chairs..and how long are the stumps?

MOST of the chairs are those sporty ones..with the angle tires,

theyre closer to the ground than mine. a HD with no stumps can

maneuver a lot easier than I can with stumps. Im dragging dead

weight you might say..like someone that is paralyzed from the

waist down.. how hard it has to be to drag lifeless legs.. I think

I would rather have them gone.. but..as high as my chair is off

the floor..well if I was 30 yrs younger ..ya I bet I could just flip my

ummm... FLAT butt right back up into this chair if I fell out.. Im

not saying cuz of my age im weak ..no Im far from weak..I have

good upper body..but that's because I stay in my manual chair

so I do keep it up.. I have none of that flabby underarm hangin

skin if I hold my arm out shoulder high.. no no.. wanna arm

wrestle me? lol..

Well I better end this little book for tonite lol..was interesting for

you I hope in case you really didn't KNOW what a WEEBLE is.

but.. im a GORGEOUS WEEBLE lol..but y'all knew that lol

Im glad you liked the story last nite.. that poor pukey kid

was sick for a long time..his mom saw to that lol :-) time to go

and WEEBLE around on my bed, snuggle down with my boys

and well got to leave the stinkin light on for the kid or he chases

shadows all nite..I need heavier curtains..lol..but its that time..

Nitey Nite...:-)

Y'all have a good one now Y'hear? love ya.. and thanks thanks :-)

ALways, Lois ****
