I know I get out more than some with my condition, but a good excursion in the sun has really perked me up.<BR/>It was sooooo worth it. And yes, we'll be doing it again as soon as possible!seahorsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04006649663400552591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3550542818993957125.post-60554612650676704812008-07-28T21:13:00.000+01:002008-07-28T21:13:00.000+01:00Wow it looks such a good day out.My two would have...Wow it looks such a good day out.<BR/>My two would have loved it.<BR/><BR/>It's brilliant that you've discovered a better way to get about too -- having that extra help can make a huge difference I'm sure. You're right about the amount of energy it takes to manage the scooter. I don't have to use one (though realistically there are times when I <I>really</I> could) and I still drive a little but no one understands how much mental and physical energy it takes to drive and navigate and I'm sure it's the same with the scooter.<BR/><BR/>I'm really glad you and your boy had such a great time and you are still left with sufficient energy to get through the following days.<BR/><BR/>Here's to a lovely summer and as many 24 hour holidays as you both want <BR/><BR/>Cusp xCusphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10717783581169397585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3550542818993957125.post-44326653098482726392008-07-28T21:04:00.000+01:002008-07-28T21:04:00.000+01:00Here's to being pushed!

This weekend is brought to you by the letter P.<BR/><BR/>I'm so glad you had a good weekend and this experience has opened up your options for further outings. I was pushed around New York City for a day and it was great (except for when I almost got dumped out of the chair because of a nasty curb cut). I could be sort of out of it and in pain and I didn't have to have the responsibility of navigating. I have a very good cushion on the chair, so I am always assured of having a comfortable seat. No wooden benches in the park for me!D Phoenixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12525527107082626371noreply@blogger.com
