Heirloom's A Little Bit Of Everything - 2016 Journal

Good luck today..Your in my thoughts... I'm surprised it's happening so fast. Is it a measuring or fitting? Are you healed or still bandaged? Hope you find all the strength you need mate.. I found some inside work for next couple of weeks, day of filling nail holes and sanding. I should put on an apprentice, getting to old or over it, lol. Winter does this though.. I'm wanting to triple my indoor grow space and just grow.. I could do it, just needs to put some workers on the paint brush, quote the jobs and grow the plants for the boys to get rid of.. Ahh I'm just dreaming at the moment..
 
Is it illegal to drive whilst talking/texting on mobile phone in America?
 
I thought it was fast too, but they say some people get fitted in a couple weeks in the case of arms. They want people to make the transition ASAP before they get accustom to doing things without a limb. I guess that makes sense, there's only one transition in habits and routines. Most leg amputees have a temp made in the first 3 months. It gets adjusted over about a year as I learn and my swelling decreases, muscle builds etc. I'm on the quick side for a leg, but that's fine. I've dealt with pain most of my life. What's a little more now? I'm going flippin crazy here. I need to get up.

Incisions are healed, but still tender. They really want me up and active ASAP. I'm relatively young and strong, and heal quickly. Staying down will only make the therapy harder later. Because I'm double amp and fused spine I haven't done much but waste away for 7 weeks now, waiting for the spine really. I'm having castings done for temporary limbs. They'll want to check range of motion (degrees of flex) in everything, check strength in all limbs, ask about numbness, tingles etc. They'll query me on my mental state and suggest I talk to their shrink. Probably poke me with stuff and ask what I feel. Then send me home with pamphlets and paperwork and instructions on daily therapy exercises. Then I'll have an in home therapist at least once per week, and more appointments than I care to think about.

Good deal on the inside work. And you can day dream all you want.

EDIT: Sorry that took so long to reply Grizz. Morning business and all takes a lot more planning and work than before.

Depends on the state. A lot of them have laws saying it is illegal or it needs to be "hands-free"

What he said!

But for more detailed info about my state...

Tennessee Text Messaging and Cell Phone Laws | DrivingLaws.org

I'm pretty sure he'll lose his license for some time. I have no idea if they fined him the freaking worthless $50 slap in my face. Probably. It's money for the State.

Good morning Heir and all others. Peace be with you. I'm hoping that your PT goes well. Rebuild all your muscles. I am so pulling for you to be better.

:love:

Good morning Jim. Nice to see you this morning. Thank you for the support and encouragement. This community IS my shrink. I don't need to talk to a psychiatrist.

:thanks:
 
:rofl: your apologising... Your an absolute champion mate. :rofl: yeah makes total sense about wanting it to progress quickly. Your brain would be having to forget movement and learn new reflexes.. Hope you get a hottie therapist, would make it easier... going to be a good day man, it's progress, all progress...

LOL, I know being out of time synch with your US friends is a source of frustration. And I just disappeared for an hour.

Eye candy would be nice. Unlikely though. The predominant body shape in these parts is....potato. :straightface: Texas and Cali have a lock on the hotties.
 
$50 fine, is that your sick sense of humor? 2-5years in Aus with phone I'd say.. Potato:rofl:
