It's been a busy couple of days with more good progress. Sunday I was home for the day; Debbie and I marked out where the rails go in the shower, and the apartment people will install them hopefully tomorrow. Eric came over and chopped the legs off the bed so that it's level with my chair. If my benches come in this week, I'll be all set to stay overnight this Saturday. Conveniently, this Saturday is also the next meeting of the cocktail club!
Today I had a bit of trouble getting up curbs in the hour we tried. A lot of it is just being committed and charging the curb and I just have to grit my teeth and do it; lately, though, I've been a bit timid in the chair. Still, the day ended on a high note as I got in and out of the driver's side of the Civic without help. Not only that, I took apart the chair and brought it in after me, then unloaded it and reassembled it. That's a first for me, and something I didn't think I was quite ready for so it was a nice surprise that I could do it.
