Friday, April 23rd (Alive & Kicking)
by Phillip on Apr.23, 2010, under The Story
I first want to say to everyone out there that I am still alive and kicking. I’ve had so much going on lately that it’s distracted me from updating my website so I’ll try to spend a couple of minutes before I run out to jot a few highlights down. First and foremost I am healthy, happy and have a beautiful woman in my life now embarking upon a relationship based on commonalities and no judgments. I have been engrossed in the continued development and refinement of my home network and smart home systems. With help from so many, I’ve made a lot of improvements to my home with each one increasing my quality of life. For example, last night I had the 2” blinds in my home modified to have the tilt settings controlled via a remote control. Next step is to automate into my Smart Home. I’ve had my master shower modified to accommodate my space needs and make it safer to transfer in and out of thus fixing all the shortcomings by the builder. I’ve had several more custom handmade antique cherry furniture pieces added to my collection and getting rid of plastic bins. I’ve been diagnosed with advance Carpal-Tunnel Syndrome in both wrists with the right one being the worse of the two. The Birmingham VA doctors recommend surgery but I’m not ready for that because it would curtail my mobility and independence.
