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.

Personal Medical Information Book...

The Personal Medical Information Book is ready for purchasing! Do you often find yourself needing to recall medications and the dosage? Do you need to recall family medical information? Is all of your medical information written down in an easily accessible place?

So often over the past year I needed all of Bob's medical information. That's why I designed this book. All of the necessary medical information is all in one small easy to grab book. I keep one for Bob and one for me in the car.

Heck, today, I had an eye appointment that asked me medical information. The book came in handy.

Visit travel-mobility to order one for each member of your family.

What day is it?

Bob is better today than yesterday. He was a bit slow to respond today. Well...he was a bit slow to respond until I turned on the PGA tournament on TV. He wasn't looking around too much until, I said, "Here's some golf for you to watch." His head and eyes instantly moved toward the TV. Do you think I could get him to look at me for the next hour? Hell no!
After golf was done, he was moving to get my attention, gave the thumbs up, gave me kisses, and nodded to the nurse when asked if he was feeling ok.

Prayer for Bob by Paster Daryl:

Eternal God, you know us through and through, you know our needs even when we can’t speak them. Touch Bob with your grace and presence. As you give him your abiding care, assure him of our love and presence. Assure him that our communion together remains secure, and that your love for him is unfailing. In Christ, who came to us, we pray. Amen. adapted from UM Book of Worship

If you were trapped in a well with a goat and a slinky, describe how you would get out.

The long-horned goat acts just like a dog. As I bounce the slinky up and down like a yo-yo, his head follows with anticipation of playing. My superwoman idea to get out of the well safely is to sit on the goat's head and bounce the slinky so it goes up first, not down. If I can do this high enough and fast enough, the motion of the goat's head will fling me to the top of the well. If that doesn't work, then I'll use my superwoman powers to wrapped the slinky on the goat's horns, and throw the goat over the top. As the goat goes over the well opening, the slinky will catapult me to safety.
