Yeah, sand and the beach are quite the struggle--and when it's hot out it doesn't help my muscles to work any better. As much as I love the beach I usually end up exhasuted and out of spoons for several days afterward, but it's still a good time. I'm nervous to go too far into the water for fear of getting knocked over and not being able to easily get back on my feet with waves crashing.
Next weekend I'm taking my new (used) sailboat out for the first time...now THAT should be an experience. -Terry PS - Thank you all for your encouraging words...sometimes it's easy to forget that you just need to ignore the ignorant and go about living as if nothing is wrong.

Funny you should say that..I lose my balance all the time and catch myself...and when I was away, walking in the sand was QUITE the stumbling experience and when I went into the water!! I was stumbling and falling over and laughing and walking backwards because the water pushed me that way and I looked rip roaring drunk!! And I wasn't at the time! Walking out of the water I needed help because it was uphill and sand that was smushy and boy the looks i got LOL They musta thought I was having a grand ole time all the while I was just struggling to walk!

Have any of you even been in a situation like this: You've had a couple of drinks, but nothing to put you in the "intoxicated" state, yet when you happen to get up to either get another drink, or go to the restroom, some a-hole makes a comment like "woah buddy" when you happen to stumble a little bit--even though the stumbling is not at all alcohol related? I've had this happen a few times and it really gets on my nerves that someone has to be a big mouth and make a scene about something they have no clue about. I stumble a little and take some time to get my balance when I stand up after sitting a long time, and I don't need to be reminded by someone about this fact. Drives me up a wall. Just needed to vent, and a bit tipsy at the moment if I might add. Have a great weekend everyone! -Terry Krissy Zodda Tri State Support Group Leader (603)589-1894 http://www.geocities.com/tmladyk/home.html ~I'm In pretty Good Shape For the Shape I am in~ ________________________________ Talk is cheap.
