I had a good day so far today . I was able to get out of bed with the use of a gait belt just like this one above. With the help of my care provider, I was able to safely transfer from bed to wheelchair without use of the transfer board. I have a hard time using transfer boards. They are good for when you need them but they can also get in the way. The fact that I can see the day where I can transfer without assistance again is a great relief.
What I am most struggling with today is how to promote myself. This has been a big problem for me for most of my life. It is probably part of the reason why I don't always acheive what I want. Im not sure why but some web sites are advertising me writing a blog for them. All for free of course. But is writing four or five different blogs the way to go here. Don't get me wrong I LOVE writing this blog. Its thereputic. Even if I don't get money from it, I'd like to keep doing it if I can. But I am also starting anotherone on a site for people with disabilities called Disaboom. I have been on this web site before. It has some interesting stuff. So I figure if I write a blog here too. I reach out to a more national audience. But do I just write blogs all day. Lets face it, most of this is just opinions and thoughts. Does anyone really care what a small town girl with a disability thinks? But its worth a shot. Not sure if Ill pick up a third blog. We will see where theese two go
