Pajama Day for me

Pajama Day for me

It is a gray day here. Windy and rainy. I am in my pajamas and planning on staying this way for the remainder of the day. It has been a rough week for me. I ran myself over with my wheelchair No joke, I’ve fallen again Besides my falls, I have literally scratched up every single wall in my house. I guess in my exhaustion, keeping the wheelchair straight also wasn’t one of my strongest abilities. I am physically spent….

Getting to know a new bathroom floor

Getting to know a new bathroom floor

I knew I shouldn’t write that about falling. I was playing mahjong yesterday and we were actually playing here in my building. It was one of those days where I was just not holding up very well in the game and I was having difficulties keeping up right. OK, it happens. I wasn’t going to stop playing because I was so happy. I haven’t played in so long. my bladder has been really cooperative and I don’t normally have to…

A tough decision when safety comes first

A tough decision when safety comes first

I had another fall the other day. I wouldn’t say it was a bad one but I did hit my head on the toilet bowl. It didn’t even register as a fall in my Apple Watch. I kind of fell in slow motion and nothing hit hard but my head. I’m left with yet another bruise and another lucky incident. I’m going to run out of those. I think that life on my feet is at an end. Safety first!!!!…

Fall detection on the Apple Watch Series 5

Fall detection on the Apple Watch Series 5

I am very happy I bought my Apple Watch for my birthday especially with my recent falls. Apple Watch here I come. The fall detection was one of the main features that made me decide to purchase the watch, although I love it for many other reasons. So I’ve had a few falls now and not once did my watch register the fall. The first fall that happened was right before my watch tutorial with Apple support. When nothing happened…

A very happy birthday

A very happy birthday

My birthday was really nice. My friend Angie actually surprise me with vegan muffins and a candle at my nail salon. That was a very embarrassing display but a very sweet one. I think she was more surprised when I explained to her that I haven’t been even eating vegan. I change diet so often who the hell could keep up anyway. That was my first candle of the day. Good thing she gave me that because my second candle…

My Apple Watch

My Apple Watch

I thought it was going to be so easy, after all I’ve had my iPhone, iPad and my iPod forever. It is not the same thing. I’ve learned that really fast. Thankfully I signed up for the online session with Apple to teach me how to use my watch today at 11.  Every morning I’ve woken up to a different face screen. I have tried to lock this watch at least six different times so that the screen doesn’t…

Week in review

Week in review

I got my Apple Watch yesterday…isn’t it pretty? I have a session with Apple on Tuesday morning to learn how to use it optimally. I’ve been a Fitbit user for 10 years so I need a little help learning how to use this activity app correctly. I set up the SOS Apple Watch here I come for a fall as well as wheelchair mode so it doesn’t count steps just movements. That in itself is so much better than the…

Apple Watch here I come

Apple Watch here I come

Down I went. I was in the wheelchair all day. I walked with the walker for all of 5 steps before I missed stepped. I ended up smacking my head into three surfaces on the way down to land with the walker on top of me and my ass in the dogs water bowl. There I was stuck and dazed trying to roll myself over to somehow get up. That took longer than I care to admit. When I achieved…
