Just an intro

This is a blog about having a severe disability and finding myself.  I am 43.  I am also without a job. Boy do I hate it.  I live in a town trying not to be a big city.  Yet it has all the big city troubles with crime, large gaps between those people with money and those without, (you can guess which side I'm on) and every other city trouble.  Plus we are several years behind the rest of the world in attitude. There is racial, ethnic, sexism, and disability predjudices running willy nilly through people's hearts and minds here and most people think nothing of it as long as it is not bold and in ones face.

But there are things I like here too.  I'm close to the beach.  I love farmer's markets.  I have family here.  I have cats that can play outdoors.  Little kids can play in the playground nearby. 

My disability ic CP. http://www.ucp.org/  It is due to brain damage at birth.  I use a motorized chair.  and I have a great part time care provider who I think the world of.  She makes my life.  A lot less frustrating.  It's trying to have money enough to survive that gets me.  So I will be letting you know of any interestig ideas I can come up with.  I would be interested in anyone's ideas.  Signing off for now
