Welcome note

When my husband and I set out to find and take pictures of wheelchair accessible waterfalls in every U.S. state, we were excited about the challenge. We gave ourselves no time limit to accomplish our feat; however, we had one mutually agreed upon rule that dictated how long we would stay in any given area. That rule was to never shiver again. Needless to say, adhering to this rule presented a new challenge. The new challenge was to find a waterfall that was actually flowing. Visiting mid-west and eastern states during months that prevented us from shivering are the same months that are hot enough to dry up streams; hence, little or no water flow for waterfalls. The natural scenery and picturesque landscapes warrant a second visit in the early spring right after the snow melts.

A change of OT game plan...

I don't know what happened...either the word got out that I was pissed after Thursday's meeting or the word got out that I'm smarter than I look or maybe both, but, the Occupational Therapist seemed to have changed his therapy plan for Bob. He actually helped Bob to stand, and he exercised Bob with "purpose" instead of his whimpy "do this small motion three times". Bob was giving the OT a little attitude about being worked so hard.


He asked Bob challenging memory questions too. It's about time!


Before T fell sound asleep from exhaustion, we played a few hands of UNO. Bob won all three hands. Go figure. No, I didn't "let" him win. He won them fair and square. He even called me a smartass for giving him a "pick up two" card. Well, he gave me one first! :(


A PRAYER FOR TODAY

"Father in heaven, thank You for this new day. Thank You for the opportunity to begin again. I choose to press forward and keep believing for the dreams and desires You’ve placed in my heart. I trust You today with everything that I am. In Jesus' Name. Amen."
