Once a week or so I get to go to the Drake Center for water-based physical therapy. Those who have known me a long time know that I was on swim team for a long time when I was younger, and I am a water sign, and I do love the water, whether it is… Continue reading Pisces Gonna Pisces

Driving 2.0
I must say, I’ve been like a giddy teenager waiting for this appointment today, and it finally arrived. Today I got my driving assessment through Kettering Neuro Balance and Rehab. Today was all of the out of car tests, and using some hand controls in a driving simulator. They deal with all sorts of patients,… Continue reading Driving 2.0
Appointment City
Going to all of my appointments and coordinating them is a full time job. I am so glad my housing situation is mostly on track, I don’t know what I would do if I was still waiting on that to all get taken care of. In this week alone I have 5 appointments, and two… Continue reading Appointment City
Wheelchairs and Things
Today was another huge appointment, the meeting with OT and and National Seating and Mobility to finalize the paperwork of my new made to me chair. The timeline above lists that I can expect my chair anywhere between 2-6 months. Nick from National Seating and Mobility thinks I should be on the shorter end of… Continue reading Wheelchairs and Things
The Big Appointment
If you have followed me since my illness, you have known then how I have lamented that Neurology couldn’t see me until April 11th. Well today was finally April 11th. I had a relatively early appointment of 10:30. This was a marathon appointment as you will see below, and turned into a much longer appointment… Continue reading The Big Appointment
Busy Busy Busy
As I sit here with my second cup of the nectar of life that is coffee, I once again have some thoughts so far on my very busy week that I have had so far. Today always has been in my mind a day I wouldn’t go out, and like usual it’s turned out to… Continue reading Busy Busy Busy
Care Management is a full time job.
As I sit here starting Bridgerton Season 2 (yes Kristen, I have started it and we will need to debrief) I feel like I am the Lady Whistledown of my own life. So much to tell people, and debrief on, and yet, I don’t want to Facebook/Instagram post every day. My blog is my semi-incognito… Continue reading Care Management is a full time job.
Sleepy Sunday Thoughts
Bit of a sleepy Sunday Afternoon around here. Things seem to be calming down a bit, which is good and bad for my recovery. I always seem to have to be doing something, and I feel like I am not being productive just “recovering”. I know my body needs rest, and I know that I… Continue reading Sleepy Sunday Thoughts
Boxes, Boxes Everywhere
I swore to myself when I moved into my current place a little over 9 years ago, I wouldn’t move again like *ever*. I have moved more than most in my life, and that is a significant part of my story. This blog is somewhat my therapy so here is the somewhat redux of the… Continue reading Boxes, Boxes Everywhere
Birthday Reflections
As I sit here watching the 2009 reboot of Star Trek (so well done, I really hope the rumors of more installments are true) I reflect on the last 6.5 weeks and the last 52 weeks at large. In June I officially “came out” as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, and while I know… Continue reading Birthday Reflections
