Short progress report

Short progress report

I forgot to take medication this morning, and didn’t realize it till about noon, so I suppose my wrist is doing better, or at least doesn’t give me pain while I’m home.

I banged it a couple of days ago on one of the tines in the dishwasher, and oh my god, that hurt! About 30 min later it was ok, or at least I didn’t feel like swearing. Today though, I really think I’ve recovered from my dancing (and dishwasher) mishap. I’m not healed enough to go back to dance class, unless I can rearrange things so that I don’t have partners with no strength.

Anyone local, who is free from 12 – 1 on Tuesdays, interested in dance? Or maybe interested in doing me a favor – as a dance partner? If I find a steady person then I won’t have to rotate around. With one steady person I can communicate what’s hard and avoid getting injured. Let me know.

The locks for my new chair are coming from a different supplier than the chair itself. ETA for the chair is next Monday. I called today to find out if the locks would arrive the same time. Confusion ensued. I suspect the locks haven’t been ordered yet. What were they going to do – wait till the chair got here to order them? I also asked how they handle the lock install, do they have a fitting so we can decide where the lock switch will be? The woman I talked to had no idea. She was supposed to call be back today, but didn’t. I think I’ll check in with her tomorrow.

My chair supposedly arrives next Monday 6/14, but this is how I expect things to pan out:

Chair arrives Wednesday 6/16, because it really was shipped on Monday.

Brakes aren’t ordered, or wrong part is ordered, so when chair arrives Wednesday, they’ll figure it out, and order the right thing.

Luckily brakes are local, so they’ll be there on Friday 6/18. And the shop will call me the following Monday 6/21, to schedule an appointment for install – Thursday 6/24 that week.

Thursday, now we’re at June 24. Chair is ready, but won’t fit in chair topper on car. So, I’ll take it home and can use it at home. Make appointment for June 28 for chair topper appointment. Plus another appointment for some adjustment on the chair about then, for change in foot pedal height, or back height, or slope on seat…..

But this is progress! Can’t get a chair till it arrives. Can’t sit on it till it’s adjusted….

I’m still excited. In 3 months this should all be water under the bridge.
