Congrats! Minnesota, eh? What is the standard practice when the power goes out or it snowa 45 inches and you can't get to your transportation? How close is the bus system? Its always know to know before you move in. Best Wishes In a message dated 2/11/2013 2:55:44 P.M.

I understand, Greg. Sometimes I think my whole life revolves around bowel movements. A sad commentary.

Re: [QUAD-L] Ojd Age!
I'm getting up there. C/5 since 82. The pain meds I now need really screws up my b-program, butt other than that I'm pretty good. My hip is the only thing that is bad (Therefore the pain meds). A little extra weight now. I'm really thinking about "Bagging it" Coloscopy, thinking iy might make life a bit easier. That is the thing that make the most hassles in my life. My vacations, my caregiver's vacations. My life is scheduled around it. Greg > Just turned 54 back in Jan. 17. Been a quad (6/7) since 1979. So > far I'm doing pretty good all-things considering.
Re: [QUAD-L] I'm moving
KK, That is just wonderful!!! I'm so excited for you. I remember when I moved into my own HUD apartment 30 YEARS ago. It's just a very small one bedroom with accessible bathroom and kitchen I can wheel under. BUT IT'S MINE!!! Do you have a mov-in date? Please let me know when you move in.

Every single snow storm we've gotten in the past 20 years that she and us have been living here, she has NEVER EVER said "Thanks" to Pete for digging her out. Today Pete dug her out while I was stuck in bed. When he came in, changed his cloths to dry one's. He looks out the window to see Dawn going out to he van and take off. WITHOUT ever calling to say "Thanks" or stopping by our apartment, which is the first unit to the front door to say "Thanks" Just don't understand.Bobbie
