Saturday 27 September 2014....so

So what do I say?

I am going to say I am in love. You can say twiterpated, infatuated, or whatever you like. 

There might be some people that want to say its to soon. That is an opinion that you are entitled to. You may want to say to me that I should wait. You go ahead and wait for me. I will be busy talking to her. 

It is kind of crazy because I can be on the phone talking for hours. I am sure that it is to much but it sure is fun. 

There have been a few ladies that I would have liked to have gone out with but that would be for another time.  

I am not sure what others think I do with time but I do stay pretty busy. I have some papers that need to be finished. I go to a lot of appointments and I have lots of books that I am trying to finish reading. I have a list that I am trying to get through so never know. 

September 22, 2014. The next step.

So it looks like there is a battle of wills brewing. I want to go traveling. My mom thinks it's not the best idea right now. I will admit that it is a frightening prospect but I like the idea of getting out and seeing the world a little bit more there is so much to look forward to and so much to worry about that I just don't know what to say. 

I got tickets to the place I was born. If you know it I would love to see you there. I have my concerns because I just don't know how wheelchair friendly things would be. I guess I better find out. 

Going to the bus station brought back a lot of memories from Brazil. I just don't remember it being so loud. It probably was but I just don't remember. 

I have been thinking about what I want to take and I think I know what can make my travels easier. But I have some phone calls to make. 

Before my stroke I was very much a fly by the seat of my pants kind of guy. Now I put a lot of effort into trying to get things planned out because of my chair. I would still like to let so many things go until the last minute. But if I did that I would get to do very little. 

This is my first trip and I am sure a lot will change, but if I just sit at home I just sit at home and that is about as good as being dead.

So I will let you know how things go. 

The other thing is I had my kids this weekend. It was kind of a rough weekend for me but most are. The kids can take a lot out of me and I guess I was pretty tired to begin with.  I fell asleep  for what I thought was a short time on Saturday. I guess I was more tired than I realized. I was told I was asleep for two hours. My little girl was kind of kind of making fun of me but that's not hard. 

I really need to get this posted. 

Monday, September 15, 2014 this seems to be a very busy week.

What a week this has been. 

I started out by going to the doctor and they sent me to the ER. Not the greatest way to spend a day but certainly not the worst. 

My left leg is kind of swollen but the hospital did some tests and I guess I am ok. Still I don't think I would recommend spending more than half the day in the emergency room. There are much better ways to spend a day.

I got my storage here and I was able to get it put in to some place new. I think that should be a good thing.  Not as many people showed up as I was hoping but we still got it unloaded pretty quick. 

I have been occupied with a lot of matters lately that seem to take a lot of time. What do I need to do? We will see.   I would really like to do some traveling but I'm not looking forward to it all of the possibilities. The idea of sitting for a long time doesn't bother me but needing to use the restroom does.

Well I better get this posted. 

Tuesday, September 9, 2014. I'm trying to figure out my new schedule.

So I have been trying to do some figuring out how to do some traveling. Everything seems to be more  difficult in a chair. 

The easiest way seems to be by bus. I am not the biggest fan of buses, but I rode them all the time on my mission in Brazil. I may just get a wanderlust and disappear for a while. 

The Americans with Disabilities Act(ADA) really has some good things in it sometimes. Actually the good stuff was always there. I just learn about it more and more in kind of a piecemeal way. 

I have recently learned that people don't like the way I choose not to talk about my life. There are a few reasons for that. 

First, there is a saying that two people can keep a secret if one of them is dead. From my own experience I can say that this is true. 

B or second,  it can cause me a great deal of physical discomfort to talk for an extended time. Not that I don't like to talk. I do very much. But it is not my favorite activity any more. I am not sure that it ever was...well that is a very non Danish way of saying how I used to be. 

Three, people talk to much in general....l forgot what I was going to write. 

Well I had better get this posted or I never will.
