I wish I could do pushups. At my peak health I could do about 3 full pushups and even some pullups. But no more. And wrist are too weak.

But I like the image and the "jumping into the cold water" attitude.

Must do yard work... but need to be able to process enough info in my brain.to get to that point.think was allergic , big mean plants ,very old big rooted vines grew up in old cattle fence. Was out restoring parts of fencing again. Why do these people need to tear up my fence.. stupid old vine must be poison ivey , am allergic again. It looked dead? Quit early
, thought to rest . Go to coffee shop ? To wake up , where senior staff appear to dislike me.
Complained about this guy who was stalking me. Same day , not seen this guy outside my house 9 months , suddenly , there he is , right after that same convo at coffee shop with senior staff & owner. ?? Coincidence.? Not .
Using that coffee shop for years . Before senior staff was hired , wrote them a bad reveiw on yelp after that . Owner was there during convo , a Canuck ,, omg , did nt want to take responsibility for stuff that happens in his business.. Jesus .! But he said so with a smile . GaVe his business great reveiws before .gotta go find coffee ...! . Do stuff afterwards.

Will not succumb , back into wheelchair.. it took too long toget out of it..
Rather go try to do push ups. Or try yard work some more. Still have my wheelchair just incase . Long time ago , bought a powered one on the cheap , and hid it in the basement . As a just incase .
Need a jet engine and folding wings , and rocket launchers on my powered wheelchair .

it was a physical realization of what joan baez said about how "the antidote to despair, is action."

My phone keeps getting alerts that I didn't request and paranoid I unintentionally pressed the wrong button and wasted $$$ or someone hacked my account. But I don't have an account


Financial scam


Any job that will hire me, there has to be something seriously wrong with, otherwise they hire someone that got canned fewer times than me


Idiots expect you to have a phone, computer and free time at all times

Ass holes


The Coldwell banker b***h arranged a job interview with me. When I got there the elevator would not go upstairs. The downstairs Starbucks told me that it has an "extra special way" to get upstairs. No front desk receptionist. Ironic because that was the job I was interviewing for. Then Laura godby told me that she expected me to call or emailed


b***h I didn't have a phone


Not everyone has a phone


She should not have expected me to have a phone


She could have gone downstairs and checked


Nobody would let me borrow their phone

They didn't trust me


Ass holes


But they expect you to believe whatever the f**k they tell you s**t

When something stops working, a lot of people assume that it's broken and give up on trying to fix it after a few seconds.
