Blogger still isn't working correctly. Summabitch.
Today i had Ethan, and i'll have him tomorrow until Saturday evening (i think).
I had a pretty good day today, Ethan was a peach. I failed at cooking dinner, but that happens a lot. I seasoned it funny.
I did something today that i haven't done in a while. Instead of watching life through my camera lens, i put my camera down and played with Julie, Eli, B, and Obi. I climbed on this huge dirt pile by the pond. Something i used to do as a kid, but haven't been able to do. It was great. It doesn't sound like a huge accomplishment to you, but for me that's huge. With my hip pain and depression, when i'm outside i'm always on my scooter. So the fact that i got off my scooter and onto the dirt pile is pretty big. I think that next time, i am going to climb up one side of it, and down the other to the second dirt pile.
Man, do i ever hurt tonight! I'm totally ok with it though. I accomplished something huge today and i can handle this pain.
When you're a cripple, you really can't do the things you love. So when you see able bodied people be lazy and sit on their ass...then complain about how fat they are...it really upsets me. I think that's one of the reasons i lost a friend. So much negativity. She wouldn't have been able to see what i accomplished today, and why it is so important to me. Julie and Eli did though...
I can't wait to go on walks in the woods again.
I'm so proud of you. It's things like this that keep us going.
