I’ve decided to start posting something I used to do on Mastodon called Three good things, but I’m going to do more than three, so in a sense keeping a gratitude journal, hopefully weekly, but we’ll see if it’s every week. Not sure if I’ll be able to come up with more than three, but I do have a few for this week! I also have an update, so cue a quick take during the good things! OK, here it goes.
- Our Wednesday night service. I wasn’t able to go, but I streamed it for the first time this week! It was a different Pastor who normally does the Sunday services, well actually there are two of them, this was a different guy.
- The book, Carrying the Fire. It’s by Michael Collins, and it’s about his mission to the moon, orbitting it while Neal Armstrong, and Buzz Aldrin walked on it.
- The fact that when I forgot to show up to my Botox appointment, even though I had like two reminders, I was able to get an Uber. I live in a small town, and Uber won’t give me a driver sometimes, even if it’s an emergency. When I did get someone, the driver wanted to wait for me, this was the second time I had this person, and he waited for me during a previous follow-up. Trust me, I just expect them all to take their rides!!! He ended up getting another ride, so he couldn’t wait, but he was the one that accepted the ride home!!
- I’m currently testing two services right now, one is for document reading and remediation, it’s called paper2audio. The other one is for use navigating inaccessible websites, and it’s called Guide. I like to test services on a regular basis, I kind of think I should always be testing, or in other words, explore things like I don’t know them, even if I do. I’m not perfect at this, so I don’t discover new features very fast.
- The quick take, is that the state has denied my developmentally disabled services application, they said that since I don’t have an intellectual disability, I don’t qualify.
