Our trip to Maryland is coming to an end and it's almost time to get back on the airplane. I am NOT looking forward to this trip through the airport again and I'm also a little nervous about the 25-50 mph winds going on out there. I have learned a few things about traveling as a disabled person:
1. TSA doesn't move any quicker when you're disabled vs. walking as a normal pedestrian. In fact, they move slower. Go figure.
2. When at the mall the day after Christmas people are crazy especially when around a woman on a motorized scooter. I literally had someone RUN in front of me, cutting me off, to get in the door before I did. Really? You couldn't wait the extra 10-15 seconds?
3. Going to other people's houses is a big challenge as they are not set up like mine and are not knee walker or crutch friendly. I am grateful for my one-level house right now! Stairs suck.
4. Everyone thinks that I'm crazy for blogging, but I don't care. It's keeping me sane. I even have a friend from blogging who had the same surgery 2 days before me--and Suzi is helping keep me sane too, even if no one else is reading.
I go back to the doctor on Tuesday and can't wait to get the stitches out. They itch and burn, and just generally need to go away. It's weird to look forward to doctor visits!

Loving your blog! Who cares if someone thinks you're crazy for blogging! I've already been *down* since the 4th of June with the mangled foot and haven't even had the repair surgery yet. Lord only knows what I may be doing to preserve sanity by the time I make a full recovery. Kudos to ya! If you haven't lost those marbles I may ask to borrow them later on. LOL
