well i thought i would be able to maintain this blog.

i like to write and i thought i might be able to share thoughts that could help others in a similiar situation. i just don't like typing one-handed. its a very short list of what i do like doing one handed. i will spare you the details.

lets see what is nuch more difficult with one arm and one leg, as opposed to 2 of each.

showering, driving, typing, walking, or hobbling i guess, in my case, making a sandwich with some kind of spreadable, like peanut butter, tying shoelaces, putting on clothes, getting out of bed, due to moving around, its not so bad if im on the edge, but during sleep i sometimes manage to travel to the center of the bed.

sitting on the toilet. trust me on this, its a balance issue.

my brain is failing me a bit as well. nothing too major. like forgetting where i am going, or why i went somewhere.

i started plasying poker not too long after my hospital stay, online, but couold'nt win fer crap. i couldn't remember what i had done before the stroke to keep my bankroll in the upward direction....last month or two ive been ahead about 20 bucks a day and ive been thinking about a new pc and desk to put in here and just make a job of this online poker. i cant go back to where i was and most likely would not if i could.

i doubt there will be a full recovery anytime in the near future, so i will have to rely on the kindness of our government and whatever small odd amout i can scare up on my own.

i will try to be more diligent with this journal.

peace
