As many of you know January has not been going well for me. I have had issues with my assistants and my chair. Not to mention my food stamp card and my seeming inability to go get ink for my printer. I swear it has to be a global conspiracy to universe does not want me to have ink. Today was the 9th time I've booked a ride to the mall be agian something got in the way this time the chair fell over. I don't know hat is going on with the chair be I do know that I am going to get them to fix it whatever it is.

Don't worry I am fine a little bump one the head and sort of sore. but other wise in one piece. This can't keep happening I am calling Monday someone will fix something have no fear.

I have been having a bad day one of my assistance has a cold and could not come in today because I can get cold if people come in my house and spread their germs but she called 7 int the morning. Instead of last night when she knew she was getting sick. I really must talk to her about doing that because its easier to find subs in the evening when people are a wake instead of 7 in the morning when every one is sleeping. If you get better I will just tell the sub that she is not needed and I would stay a little more sane witch is the goal. Lucky my friend Robin could come in.

The weirdest thing just happened as I was typing this entry. The chair fell over with me in it. Then it wouldn't turn, so my PCA called her boyfriend to help her get my old power chair out of my spare room. Meanwhile I had to pee, so my PCA (with much effort) pushed the broken chair into the bathroom. I went pee and then waited for the boyfriend to come. He took a long time to come. So, my back began to really hurt and I had to get back into my chair (even though it was broken). Then it begin to work again. I had the boyfriend, push my other chair out in case this one dies again.

All I have done today is sleep, ache, and have issues. What a day!

...but no such luck. Now, I have my friends crazy mother who thinks that she can bully me into stopping trying to help him live on his own. Sorry lady. Not gonna happen. Move on. Realizing your kid is a grown up might be a start. Secondly, I have no ATM card for ten days as mine is missing and it takes a maximum of 10 days to replace it in the mail. Thirdly, I'm really tired. The only thing I'm happy about is my knee which seems to be on the mend. Although, everytime I say that something else happens. But, at least today when I got up I went to the toilet instead of the bed pan. That's progress. Even if it's small progress I'll take it.

You all know the kind I mean. The kind where nothing goes right. The kind where your first plan doesn't happen so you make a back-up plan and that goes wrong too. My first plan was to have been at poetry writing group but this afternoon I felt horrible so I opted to cancel my ride. Of course, by the time 5pm rolled around I felt better but couldn't reschedule the ride. As a back-up plan I opted to attend the Farmer's Market in town. However, I discovered that my ATM card didn't work because I'd reported fraudulent charges on it so there was no Farmer's Market for me.

After that, I came home, called my mom to ask if she could lend me $50.00 out of my birthday money that she still has custody of. That led to a long mother lecture which of course is not what you're in the mood for when you found out that your ATM card doesn't work and your plans have all gone to hell. So this evening I basically sat around listening to a book and playing a video game which raises money for disability rights. At least that's good. I decided, however, to at least write a little bit so this day wasn't a complete loss. Also, in a final dose of "who in the universe did I piss off?" I was going to try getting into my wheelchair on my bad leg tomorrow to give my good leg a rest but now my painkillers are gone. I don't really want to try that with no pain killers so I guess it's off to the doctor with me tomorrow. Can anything else happen?

Have you ever had one of those weeks where nothing seems to go right? I'm having one. Last week was also pretty much one. I'm about to be one. There's only so much stress a girl can undergo. For starters, the Belchertown police have not found who took my ATM card, my knee is still sore but not as much, I keep sticking my foot in my mouth which is pretty difficult when you're mobility impaired (j/k), My writing is not going fabulously or making money. I think I could handle one aspect of that if the other aspect were going well. If I was writing pages and pages of good material today, I'd be fine with not earning money. If I was raking in the dough, I wouldn't care so much if the muse decided to part for a while. I'd care but definitely not as much. Now, on top of everything else my computer has a virus and all these weird little windows keep popping up. What did I do to piss off the universe and how can I reverse it?
