Amputee life before and after...

~Early Up, Early Down~

I got up early again, I did NOT sleep worth a crap! I just
could NOT get comfy..This arm just aches and hurts if I move
it, touch it, or just don't do anything to it.. I did call my Dr, but the
office was closed today for some reason I don't remember.. They
sent a notice I had forgotten.. I don't know to call COA and see
when I can get a ride, or make the appt. and hope they will have
someone to take me.. This is just such a big circle.. I got a call
from my insurance lady, Deborah, and even the new arm rests I
am going to have to wait.. She said the Dr has to send the script
to someone else, then they send it on ..what a crock.. just all paper
work that no body cares if they have it or not.. they think if they
stall you long enough you will give up..

I was waiting most of the morning today for Penny, she had to
switch her days this week.. I couldn't figure out why she was late,
and no phone call..that's not like her at all..Well I got a phone call
from a friend, as we were talking the subject came up that today
is Wednesday.. I said "no, its Tuesday".. well that's why Penny
did not come today.!. I hate when I do that.. I know sometimes I
wake up and I forget what day it is..or what I am sposed to do
that day, and I don't worry about it.. but I hate when that happens.
I wonder if that has significant meaning? :-)

I don't feel good today at all.. Lori came by to pick up a copy of
my NOW finally signed lease. Ken signed it when he came by,
he is the owner, not Chris.. I asked Ken if Chris is scared of me,
or perhaps doesn't like me, he just smiled. I told Ken, well you,
Dad, need to at least teach him to return phone calls.. Lori said
if the roof isnt done she will do some phone calling herself.. She
said when she got home yesterday after that rain for 2 days, she
had a leak in her bathroom over her tub, she said she found part
of her ceiling in the bathtub, now she has to get hers fixed, she
is worried as to the cost, shes a single mom and of course she
has to be...she is so nice, the boys love her..Dutch pouts when
she leaves too...

She didn't stay long and she knew I didn't feel well..she agreed
that its just from the stress of the past few days, with the rain and
leaks and no sleep, and a sore arm, that its just caught up with me.
Which I agree.. I am so tired today and I bet I took 3 desk rests at
least.. I did not do anything today, Im not even hungry which tells
me I don't feel good.. But it has been somewhat stressful past week
or so starting with the freezer..and it does catch up..Tomorrow I get
my power chair, and havent found a spot to put it.. I guess in the
bathroom for the time being..with my arm like this I may just use it
for a while.. Its just like my old one so I should have no trouble using
it or getting used to it.. I hope not... Im just a bad driver.. ask my
door facings..all the paint is knocked off again..:-)

This isnt a big long drawn out post tonite as I really don't feel good,
and I am closing down this puter for the night and going and watching
TV for a while....ha~! like I always do.. I watch it thru closed eyelids..
bad thing about that I never see what Im watching :-) "Nitey Nite"

Y'all have a good one now, Y'hear? love ya, and Thanks! :-)
Always, Lois ****

God Bless you, is my prayer today,
I'm so honored to call you "friend";
I pray the Lord will keep you safe,
Until I write again.....

    Dearest dear one!
    A new chair is good.... Does it feels like when you have bought a new car? Or does it feels just like a needy support for the lack of legs you have? Do you like to have it or do you hate to be forced to have such a big mechanical thing in your little dollhouse?
    In short terms: How does it feels to have to sit in a chair all days, and does it feel good to have a new one. Is the new one uncomfy in the beginning? And softens after your butt has formed it? Well honey here you have a whole new/old subject for your blog!!! Take it or leave it.
    Take care dear and all the k & h in the world!
    from your own
    ROB

    Hi, Honey,
    You sure are going through a rough patch at the moment. Hope that chair arrives on time and you can forget your worries for a while as you play with it!!
    Still having a great time with the grands - of course we had to have the ritual burying on the beach - I think the oldest boy is in training as a grave-digger!! They made a VERY deep bed for Grandin to have a nap in!
    Take care, honey. L.O.L. & G.B.H. from
    Raife
