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.

Adapting My Life
This week is spring break at my school, but for me since I am on medical leave this week just seems like any other week. I am in a holding pattern this week, getting discharged from home health today, so no PT/OT coming in, but it isn’t until next week that I go to the… Continue reading Adapting My Life
Routine…
Studies have shown having a routine is important for most people, and most people fall into a routine. My routine has changed a couple of times this year already, from my 40+ hour a week grind with school, to the crazy hospital routine, to the rehab hospital routine, to what I am on currently which… Continue reading Routine…
Wednesday Morning Coffee Thoughts
As I sit here enjoying a cup of Highlander Grog and Marty on my lap, I have lots of thoughts. These thoughts are sometimes not the positive, happy thoughts about my situation. Yesterday, there was a credible bomb threat at my school. It all turned out okay, and all staff and students were safe but… Continue reading Wednesday Morning Coffee Thoughts
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
I guess I’m disabled now??
Late last week UC Health finally got my health records to the Ohio Bureau of Vocational Rehabilitation a state agency underneath the Opportunities for Ohioans with Disabilities. I was accepted, so I guess that means I’m officially disabled now? I was encouraged to reach out to them by my wheelchair specialist at NuMotion, but the… Continue reading I guess I’m disabled now??
Keeping the Peace
We did end up finishing everything for Tuesday when the movers came to put my life into storage. Then my Mom’s wonderful housecleaner came in and did wonders for my place. Seriously she’s never looked so good. If you are in the Middletown, Franklin, Monroe, Lebanon and West Chester/Liberty Twp. area and are looking for… Continue reading Keeping the Peace
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
No Recovery Manual
If you’ve been keeping up with my Stardate Instagram/Facebook posts, you have probably seen that I had a frustration cry again on Sunday morning. Lots of reasons for that. I am taking the loss of my independence, going and doing on my own hard. Having my parents take me everywhere is exhausting for them as… Continue reading No Recovery Manual
