CARRIE IS CRAZY!

My friend carrie at wwrc is trying to set up an e-mail acount. It is interesting if nothing else. She is getting help so I think she'll get it eventually. Let us pray.........lol.

Carrie is a good friend of mine.She understandes having a disability. She had a serious brain injury that she has had to learn to live with. We have laughs. I was even thinking about getting serious with her, but there is a lot of stuff in the way. There is a fifteen year age differance, and then there is the whole race thing.

Dating should probably be the last thing on my mind but no man is an island. It has been years since I had a girlfriend let alone do any of things that couples do."huh, hum".

Had to clear my throat.

I will get my pics up soon I swear! I can do it now but I have been away at the rehabilitation center. That reminds me, I have bad news to report.

The good news about my acceptance into the drafting program may have been false. I think I may have misunderstood what my evaluater was saying. I spoke with him today and I am not so sure I will be in the drafting program. He was talking about sugesting desktop publishing as a possible career path. I am still not sure. Most of what he said was positive but I feel like he was trying to let me down gentlly. I will be abe to get into somthing but I'm not sure I will be in the field I wanted. I will try to keep this website posted.

Congrats to me!

I have been accepted into the drafting program at WWRC. ( http://www.wwrc.net ) I am not sure if I should be happy or if this is actually more than I can handle. I did well on everything in my evaluation except the math. I am not sure I will be able to keep up with the other students. I was never really good at math and I will never be able to avoid it in drafting. When they start talking about the hypotinuse or crazy stuff like that my eyes glaze over.
I have also been asked to participate in a research study to see if people with cognative problems can be helped with a small hand held computer. The computer will hopfully help me. I am O.k. now ,mostly, but I have real concerns for the future.
I just wanted to share my good news with my many readers. I am going to go now but before I do I will promise to update my webpage more often. I am also going to change the format and include helpfull MS information. (I know u guys get tired ofmy lies........lol)


C - Ya!

Im o.k. Are you o.k.?

These are the questions I ask myself every day. Some days are harder than others, but you keep going. Life wouldn't be fun if it was not hard would it?.............. Probably! What can you do?

Today I finished my business evaluation at Woodrow Wilson Rehabilitation center. The instructor said I would be good at a data entry position. I would take that job right now, but I really want to do computer aided drafting. I was a carpenter and I had planed on building my own house. I was going to go into business for myself before MS. I could still do it with drafting, maybe. I'm getting evaluated for the drafting class now, so say a prayer for me. I'll need it.

My blog will be going through some much needed improvements soon. The pictures will be up soon and I will make some MS info available. I am thinking of changing the format of this blog. Any and all help with ideas would be appreciated. So, help ................................ Please?

Take care for now.

Another day at Woodrow Wilson

Its another day at Woodrow Wilson ( http://www.wwrc.net/Default.htm ) I'm bored as hell. Today started off bad but things seam ok now. This morning I thought I lost my key to my room. I had to get my roommate to let me in. After I got in I searched for my key everywhere but couldn't find it. It was under my nose the entire time. I had two shirts on and it was hanging around my neck between my two shirts. At lunch I hit someone with my scooter. I stood up to take off my jacket and my jacket got caught on the "gas". Next I was late for physical therapy. I am waiting for an atom bomb to go off. It would make this bad day complete.

I guess things aren't that bad. I did learn a few things. I learned how to adjust my handle bars on my scooter so I will have more space and I don't have another accident. I also learned how to do some exercises that may help with my stamina in physical therapy. I'm trying to look on the bright side.

I still don't have any info to share with other MSers. I get a monthly news letter and I will also start sharing that. I also know that the MSworld and the national MS society have good sites. I Chat at MSworld all the time as crazilynsane. The address is http://msworld.org. There is a lot of good Info there.

I am currently trying to add content to my little web page so If anybody can help with that I would appreciate it. Leave a comment please. Thanks. Bye for now.
