~I HAVE CHAIR ~!~ :-D

Well there IS THE CHAIR..you see that? that is Michele from R & R

Discount Medical Inc. delivering my new chair. I was worried, I

knew it was coming and its been raining ALL day AGAIN.. My

roof will NEVER get fixed.. I feel for poor Lori and her leak..

Now why couldn't all those other 4 medical supply places

take care of stuff this fast..how long did I wait for this chair?4 weeks?

the others over a year? I told Michele that.. Her comment "well,

show's who's got the best company doesn't it?" I heartily agreed..

You see the boy of course, he was in that chair before I was..He

checked it all out.. I don't think he likes power chairs..mainly because

he cant go under them..he always goes under my chair..you cant in

this..hes gotta back up..I aint.. :-)
Theres a better photo.. I asked her if I could take this and she said

yes..that I was going to write here tonite and say how good a job

R & R had done for me..and GET this! she brought my new arm

rests for my manual..is THAT great! she put those on for me too..
She knew I had mentioned to her about that when she was here

before and took the initiative to check before she left with my chair

to see if perhaps an order had come through and it had first thing

this morning..so she brought them and put them on..
Well there you have it.. my new power chair and of course,

this GORGEOUS WEEBLE had to take a photo of me in it..

Well to be honest..I made a small video.. Same rules..if you

would like the video just write and ask.. Its funny cuz I hadnt

driven a power chair in a while and they do take some getting

used to.. I ran into the chair..and I .. well maybe shouldn't tell..

I was pulling up to the potty, and was going a little too fast, and

turned too sharp..and well I hit the toilet so hard it dislodged the

plastic riser I have screwed down on it.. :-) I hit it just right and

it popped right up.. I was just so glad it wasn't an EMERGENCY,

ohh wow I would have been in big trouble :-) I did notice tho..that

this chair is higher than my other, well I think its cuz of this special

cushion I have..you can see how thick it is..
The joystick you can see looks kinda loppy which it isnt its a

swing away kind so I can get up close to my desk..which even

with it swinged away Im not close enough.. If you look close,

you can see the discolor on my elbow..just below to just above.

The white patch is my blood pressure patch..that gives me a

constant dose of my medication since I am not dependable to

take my pills every day.. well I forget..then I don't know if I already

have, then I don't cuz I don't wanna over dose..I have a pill thingie

to put them in by the day for a week..Well ..I forget to fill that too..

Pain in the patootie pills are.. The GOSPEL truth.. I honestly DID

feel better when I took nothing .. I did..I asked the cost of this new

chair she said close to $6,000.oo.. as in SIX THOUSAND. that's

what my other old one was too.. I would give that one to someone

if they could figure out what was wrong with it.. This one charges

the same way and she brought me a brand new charger.. I wonder

if it would work on my old chair since the one guy said that was

really the only problem with it.. I don't know.. but Its a shame to just

let it rot if someone could get it running.. I wish I could send it to my

friend Blue in Australia..he has to buy his own, and he only has a

manual.. bet he would like zippin around in one of these.. I think

they go about 40 miles an hour ..NO NO Just kidding.. but they do

go pretty fast, I had to turn this one down a notch already :-)

My arm is really hurting me.. and the rash well its still there.. Its not

itchy right now..at times it is.. But my elbow..the very pointy part of

it the knob..that's where it really hurts..and its swollen..and you see

it is discolored..which makes me worry.. so I did call and make a

appointment with the Dr. I cant get in until Thursday at 9:15.. I will

go.. Its bothering me too much..and I don't like the color its taking..

that worries me.. I don't know about losing more ..I honestly don't

know if I could handle that.. I really don't.. I do think about it too, a lot,

that's why I am trying to make plans and get a plan of attack ..just in

case.. Im the only one can do it..and I have to while I can..any way I

can.. I got to give it a run for the money.. Speaking of money..

I played the lottery..well Penny got the tickets for me.. I hit 2 numbers :-)

im getting there..maybe it will gradually get better to where I will win one

that's for like 100 Brazilian or something.. I heard a joke about that word..

and I have used it since. I would be happy to win just a few thousand..and

just put it in the bank just to see it there, never touch it or spend it.. just know

its there ..just in case.. to me that's most reassuring..

I still don't feel the greatest today, I did sleep last nite off and on..but I

know I slept I woke my self up a couple times I was breathing kinda heavy.

NO..NOT snoring either..GORGEOUS WEEBLES don't snore.. we may

be breathe heavy but NOT snore..:-) Im going to ride my new chair out to

the kitchen and have a slice of my Hawaiian Sweet Bread..it is so good.

and with some peanut butter and some of Theresa's homemade black

raspberry jam..ahhhhh life is good... "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.....
