Handicapped equipped vans can make life much easier

If you are disabled, or know someone who is, you know just how difficult even the smallest tasks can become if you don't have the proper equipment. It's important to give handicapped people every chance we can to make their lives easier and more productive. One of the most important things is to ensure proper transportation, which in most cases would include vans for handicapped.

Having spent some time with handicapped people I know first hand just how much more simple it is to have a van equipped with a wheelchair lift and all of the proper contrivances to enable easy loading and unloading. It makes the old way of having to physically lift the handicapped person obsolete.

Quality of life is everything. I always try to remember that it's not the number of breaths that we take, it's the number of things we experience that takes our breath away. That rule applies to handicapped people as well as healthy people. Being able to travel more easily in a specially equipped handicap van is just one of many ways to make our "special" people happier.

Writers block and a black bear

I seem to have hit a brick wall in my writing lately. Now I know what it means when a professional writer gets stagnant and can’t write for a period of time. I used to be full of ideas and couldn’t wait to get home so I could write about them. Now I am blank and nothing seems worthy to write about. Every time I work hard and get my page rank up, Google comes along and cuts it for no apparent reason. A few months later my rank will come back, even if I don’t change anything on my blog. It’s discouraging and I wish Google would come up with some definite rules to judge page rank, instead of letting their idiot crawler run rampant destroying the value of people’s hard work.

On a happier note, I am glad that it’s spring. The weather here is wonderful this week; cool nights and warm days. My wife has planted a garden and it’s growing well. Soon we should have some fresh veggies and peaches from our peach tree. It’s loaded with fruit this year. Hopefully it won’t all get eaten by insects. We built a fence around our garden this year to keep out the wild animals, such as deer.

Speaking of wild animals, I seen a bear on the way home from work today. it ran across the highway and the car in front of me nearly hit it. Since there wasn’t any cars behind me I stopped and said “hello big boy” to it. The bear turned and looked at me, then went on off through the woods. Pretty neat, but I have seen many bears in the past, and have had several here in the yard. A couple of young ones climbed trees when our dog barked at them. I love living in the country!

Learning Before I Move

Contributed by Milford Woods

My husband and I are moving to Texas in a few months, so I have been trying to learn all I can. I want to have a smooth transition, and I feel like part of making that happen is knowing what to expect. I am from New York, so it doesn’t get much more different than Texas. I don’t want to seem like a fool when I meet new people so I need to do some serious reading. I want to do some research on the area we are moving to, and have some leads on clubs and activities I can join to make friends. I don’t want to be that woman who depends on her husband for all of her social interaction. I am way too social for that. When I started looking for an apartment I stumbled across a website that said you can shop electricity rates texas. That was an interesting little tidbit I picked up that might help us save some cash when I get there. I’m looking forward to the move, and I can’t wait to get there

Goodbye old friend

Today I was surprised to find out that one of my old and dear friends had died suddenly. I seen him just last weekend walking around and looking healthy. I have no idea what took his life but I will miss him. He was older than me and I remember when I was a young man; fresh away from home, He took a liking to me, a perfect stranger, and took me under his wing and helped me find jobs when I had no work, loaned me money when I was broke and in need, and had me in his home to visit him and his wife and kids many times. Over the years I stopped visiting with my friend and the years passed swiftly by. Upon discovering his death I realize how many years it has been since I was in his home and how much I will miss him and the friendship he always gave to me. I remember swimming and getting sunburned, jumping off a swing into the river, going hunting, playing cards, eating, laughing; so many things, but all many years ago.

Sometimes we take friendships for granted as I have done and we don’t know until it’s too late just how much they mean to us. Troy always made much of me, even when I didn’t feel like much. He wasn’t close to many people, but he wanted to be close to me. I remember once that he had unexpected visitors on a day when he had invited me over to visit long ago. He asked the visitors to leave so they wouldn’t infringe on our time to visit together. Troy worked hard for many years and had just retired a couple of years ago. He looked hale and healthy, and I thought he would be around for a long time. I thought that I had a lot of years to be his friend, when I found the time. Time has run out and now he is gone suddenly, without warning. Goodbye old friend and may God rest your soul, and may you live again someday in a place more special than this.….

To my friend Troy-1945-2012
