This blog is basically to chart my progress in trying to lose weight...
This is a Record of my daily events including my family when appropriate for my other family members to see if they choose to.
This is my legacy, for my family to read after I am dead and burried. So, any thing on here is meant for them only and if it offends anyone, my apologies, but, its not meant for you and them
Chow for now...
May the LORD Bless all who see this.
I wish you well...

Chair - Fall
Posted 04-17-2014 at 02:21 PM by woodworkingmenace
The Big lots chair only lasted 2 days, and it fell apart.
It seems that they forgot to attach a spring to the leg lift and I wouldn't let me out of it LOL
So, she searched high and low, with her sister, and finally found me a used lazy boy swivel rocker, but, I think she paid too much for it!
My opinion didn't count, because she got the chair, and I know where to give in, and accept defeat. Just aint going to happen, her, taking the chair back, no matter how much I squawk about it LOL...
Last night, I fell out of the tub, while taking a shower!
Now, we have an old cast iron claw foot tub, that's heavier than anything I know of, that's in a house. This puppy takes two guys to move it.
Normally, my Wife washes me, when I take a shower...(Yea, how many other husbands get to claim that one??!!!).
But, lately, she has been wanting me to do for myself, (which is ok with me, on that account), and, I take a scrub brush and go for it. Scrubbing all the nooks and crannies that I can reach, and, those that I cant, my Wife takes care of, in the finally rinse water LOL...
Well, Ive been doing good for the past couple of times, but, this time I lost it.
I was facing out of the tub, and for some reason, started going forward and didn't have anyway to catch myself. (The grab bar is in back of me, and its covered by a shower curtain, so, its a no go for that venue).
I feel my knees pivot on the rim of the tub, and my heels jam on the back side of the tub and it starts going over with me!
Fortunately, I have plastic plumbing and flex plumbing going to the tub, so that the water isn't ripped out.
The sewer drains, well, that's another story, they came and went, and there was water on the floor of the bathroom and in the basement. (Going to have to get my Brother in law to inspect, to see what kind of damage I did to the sewer piping. Fortunately, they are all plastic too, so, replacing them will be an easy job).
Now, Im going forward, and I fell on my head, and fingers of my left hand. (Yea, this is a real pain to type today, but, I want this down so that a record will be held by my family, and they can go back and see what happened on this day, of this year!).
My Wife, she was sitting on the commode, waiting for me to get done, so she could dry me off...(standing up so long, washing myself, exhausts me, from the pain in my back, screaming at me, and I barely have enough energy to get out of the tub).
She is trapped, because the tub is sideways, I am in front of her, on my face, trying to get up, and she cant get around me.
She calls for my Son, and he comes a runnin to help out, but, Im lodged in there, so that he cant do much either.
Wife is screaming for him to do this and that, and, Im just wanting her to shut up and let me get adjusted so that I can wiggle out of the situation LOL.
Finally, they 'let' me wiggle out of the way, on the floor, and my Son brings a chair on casters, for me to pull myself up, on, thus, I get myself off of the floor.
I get rolled out of the bathroom, and my Wife is pitching a fit, not knowing if Im ok or not, wanting me to go to the Emergency Room, but, I refuse, and just fussing abouit me, like a mother hen would do!
I take stock of myself, and decide, nothing is broken, but, my three fingers are 'stoved' in, and my left hand is going to give me pain for a week or more, from this fall.
I take three vicodins for any pain that Im going to be suffering, (figure, pain is going to be on my body, after I settle down, because you never know, how much you are hurt, after any accident).
Besides three fingers and my left hand bruised badly, (not black and blue bruised, but, hurting like all get out), and a slight pain in my neck, Im doing pretty good for a nights worth LOL
When I get ready, and my hand gives up from being in pain, I will go to the Chiropractor to have my neck looked after, and shove and push me back into shape again!
Yep, this does hurt like the dickens, trying to type this, but, if I don't get it down, I will forget a lot, and chalk it up to a bad moment of forgetfulness when I try to dwell back on it.
OK, Wife is cooking live and onions, and, my Son is back from work, so, its time for good eatins
I wish you well...
