Roberto Matta
Getting
back into writing my blog every day is proving more difficult than I thought,
especially when everything seemed to be going against me.
Last
Thursday when I wrote my first post since I stopped blogging on the 11th
of December I was very happy until I tried to post it on my blog.
I had
chosen a picture by Roberto Matta, however when I went place it on my blog
everything froze and nothing would cooperate with me.
After a
while I tried to publish my blog post without the artwork but that did not work,
in the end I was so frustrated that I decided it was better to stop and try
again another time.
However
everything went differently to how I planned and I did not manage to get back to
using my laptop until Monday this week.
Then I was
surprised to see that my blog post despite all the problems had been published
on my blog just without artwork and a title and labels.
After I
added the missing artwork, title and labels I realised I would have to stop as
my index finger was not cooperating with me.
So I
reluctantly shut down the laptop and decided to relax which is not always as
easy as it should be, but I did my best.
Luckily
this week I've been able to do my arm and leg exercises Motomed without the
discomfort I have been experiencing in previous weeks.
Because the
curvature of my spine is progressing it means that the backrest on my
wheelchair does not fit me well anymore and does not support me as it should.
The result
in recent weeks has been the I am sitting leaning to the left which is not a
pleasant way in which to do 45 minutes of exercises.
I was
getting quite downhearted thinking in due course I would not be able to do these
exercises which are vital for my well-being.
Luckily
Richie has been able to sit me in a wheelchair in such a way that I am able to
do the exercises on the Motomed without any discomfort.
Hopefully
my joy will be made complete when I can successfully publish this blog post
with artwork, title and labels tonight, then I will be happy.

Hello Herrad, I sent you an email this morning, hope you got it. Amazing you posted the same day. =)
I hate hearing your spine is progressing - very painful.
Your joy was completed as you did make this post happen.
I've missed you, my dear Herrad.
Blogger has been acting up for a lot of people lately. I know some people that can't post pictures anymore. I'm glad to see your post published.
I have missed you Herrad, glad to see you are back. I have been thinking about you.
Hugs
Tracey
Great to see you back in the saddle! Wish you had a better way. Love,Mary
Well, even though you've had a tough time posting, may I remind you that on December 11 you still were not allowed to sit up. I am glad that you have made it through another long healing spell with the pressure sore. I think it is the long time it takes for those to heal that makes them so awful,
You are very lucky to have such a wonderful caregiver as Richie to tend to you. He has my utmost respect and admiration. (Yay Richie!)
I'm sorry you have to wait another several weeks for more proper supports. Too bad they can't put a rush on them for you. Stay upbeat, Herrad. It's the only way to be.
I am sure and wish that you are able to post the art work too.
I understand the difficulties and I can only pray for you and your well being from this distance,Herrad
blessings...
One day at a time is wisest though at time most challenging.
