So after crashing,
turns out there's a CrashEtc earlier in the year.
with the eScooter, likely,
and just getting bills going to collection for that,
while think someone said don't worry about it,
i was a frequent flier, but didn't go back,
i did pay parts of it, $100 was a lot when
in the Hotel,
and the the major part of it came through,
for medical and xray, and think i paid part?
but been a while...

AnyWays, falling has it's own problems,
and getting down and up, like in bed,
to rest, is one of them...
Same movements falling/ crashing,
in this case, is as going to bed,
and parts hurt...
In my case, three points,
left knuckles, don't use those that much,
but rather visible,
right wrist, and forwarm,
and left knee,
so a three point up and down,
some call it,
getting down, not on the same ones
so right knee, and roll to right side,
gently,

Getting up,
a situp
and problems with chest,
the laundry plug
putting one back in after pulling two cords,
the wrong one needed plugging back in,
and popped up on the high laundry machine,
a lot of weight left not on top of it,
as it was high, and may have cracked/
dislocated, sprained? a rib
as that right side hurt a long time,
week(s)...

and the left started hurting later on,
not sure why, part of the fall?
or all the sit ups/
get part way up,
balance ofweight from chest/trunk to
bottom/ arse/ glutimus maximus/ butt
and then sort of three points
and lean on something,
pushing maybe giraffe like getting up
mostly on legs but balance on
left or right hand, wndow sill on right
is closest, leaning over hurts in different ways,

but frequently getting up to use the bathroom...

Right arm constantly hurt the first day/
and night, and lessed after that,
i had it in a brace, the old one for the eScooter,
thinking it would help,
especially during the night,
when asleep and turn onto it, without thinking,
could be very painful
so left it on at night for a few days,
but like a cast gets nasty inside,
and the scab was forming about the
palm part of it, and got mucked up
there, thinking of ways to clean that,


so many days iwthout a shower,
as scabs forming,

finally did many days later,
and one part, knuckles bleed,
while the palm was more clear,
deeper, and less blood i guess...

Worried at first about using hydrogen
peroxide on such a deep wound,
as topic solution only,
i think the old expired but not opened
bottle says...

So after shower use peroxide on it again
things wet, and might get infected,
which would be bad..

no bandages on it, and letting it dry...

Washing hands also difficult so meal prep
diffcult and the tools/ hand are used for that,

turning a can opener manually was out,
for like a week
and finally a lot of twisting,
depending on what foods i had available,
and what i could try making,

Eventually trip out was a week later,
and bought the pressure cooker/ air fryer
combo,
tried hard boiling eggs first,
as less of a hassle, and had dozens to start
using up
that was educational,
diffferent display touch screen instead of
just regular buttons
and an air fryer menu of types of foods,
not showing up during pressure cooker mode,
still haven't tried the air fryer lid...


after that, made
made black beans
and soaked them
during the day, assuming an 8 hour night,
was going to rinse them
but they took all of the liquid
absorbed it,
and a large dry bag of a lot of broken ones,
turns out black beans are not black inside,
and worried about stuff clogging up the vent/
air hole (like a whale? breaths throug that)

but when done cooking 30 minutes
after adding water
and learn top and menu a gain
after eggs.
guessed 5 minutes onthat,
recipe book said egg program
which there isn't any mention of
and no egg object on the menu
so updating, or some divergence
between booklet/ recipe and device?

But mainly getting back on the keyboard,
as one hand hurting, and mentioend the scab
and liquid collecting on the right palm,
so a messy spot,
hurts to put it down,
and can't keep hand off of the resting space,
so a pain all around, literally...


Peeling was/ and still is out,
one handed things, cracking egg shells,
and not doing that at night,
as sounds like a knock
fairly loud for neighbors...

But opening up the vent,
instructions not clear on what naturally
releasing, do nothing and wait?
PRessure Cooker times are misleading,
as warm up and cool down not shown in
times, so 5 minutes turns into 15 or more,
and letting out the pressure quickly may crack
the eggshells...

I ended up overcooking them,
so more than white getting darker
from the leaking of the yolks
and letting them cool,
refridgerate (sp?)

I had bought some salad dressing/
whipped topping for them,
and considered deviled eggs/
egg salad but never got around to it,
i did however add to a topping
with tomato like a BLT?
without the bacon?


But looked up some things,
Benefits.Gov has
a way of checking,
and Court / county had suggested
/ required it, so entered information
but couldn't get a report emailed to me,
so most things lost, have to reenter
and go through again and again,
one at a time, like an opportunity thing
but that's education expenses,
and some blind like library,
are you blind? idk, losing some,
and food, some milk option(s)
based on income benefits,
social security,
but not much, looks like a lot,
but nothing really fits (me)...
for my most pressing issues...


But one was kitchen adapting,
so a spoon that swivels,
so doesn't turn the stuff off of it,
so gross motor skills workkng,
but find motor not and can get to
dish and mouth,
but twist would dump it,
intaed it swivels...

A cutting board iwth prongs on it,
to keep things where they are put...

Seems risky to me, but maybe not my
issue, or really it is
trying with one hand...

A manual can opener, but have to nail it
to something...

A knife that is one handed,
so a rocking instead of chopping,
sawing motion...

And some finger connected utensils,
plus a strap to keep on hand,
instead of dropping i guess...

Some of which i hadn't seen bfore,
but make sense from other things
that they exist, just hadn't needed them
until crash/ falling...

And doing more at home instead of going out,
so have blown out my dat aplan quickly,


I bought a card reader/ writer,
and finally got to try it,
and can't seem to get it to work...
Tried on Linux and not seen at all,
except maybe
sudo usb-devices
lists some SMC things?
which may be it,

I even booted over to Windows
thinking it might be a linux compatibility thing,
the uSD card is 32Gig which is high
beyond the original FAT file system limitations
and formated that way, i guess...
exFAT?
Extended FAT
to get that high up,
and windows XP requires a extFAT upgrade,
which i don't know if i've got,
and likely don't have login to M$ anmore,
forgot it, or never did,
and sticker on the botton doesn't have serial
number any more, wore off...

So no luck in moving around the
odd media files for the
LidlSoundBoundsHeadSet.HP.txt
which is a LifeWareGroup.com
which shows a FM version too,
at $50+ instead of $14
on site,

Never got that memory card working,
and after the crash only getting
a lot of disconnects, so wonder if soemthing
else going wrong, sweat into switches,
unuseable at this point i guess unless
plug in..
Had boufht 2 others as backup but not switched
to those yet...
Frustrated with that and
buting in ear sport which end up being an empty
box...
losing $20 - 30%
and got a coupon for 10 of 50
but expired on the 13th, yesterday and didn't go
back to McLean to try that,
late dark, tired, risky,

But i digress...

not back to normal,
but have to exercise to try and make it through
the season and clock change, plus other pressures,

I did do the 40 or so miles trip on the weekend,
first time in a week since crashing,
and the crash week didn't
so a couple weeks without long rides,
bought cider and maybe aproblem with which chips/
tokens, $6 for $5 and took the fruit and veg
which helped, then wanted to give change,
and wanted the other,
awkard, and heard it but took the first answer,
and trying to get out of there...

some other oddities, i forgetting at the moment..

But back to the grind i guess...

Did laundry, had gotten down so low,
one more trip, and finding things
packed for emergency use,
and using them...

Did laudnry shirtless which had
some problems, as during early hours,
no A/C in the hallway and unbearable
warm in the laundry room,
men i guess can, woman can't,
and mostly encountered women,
not the first time, nor likely the last,
but try not going down that low,
as don't have things to wear to do laundry...

And back out today, buying things to eat,
had been given a 10Lb bag ofr LDS flour,
and used to make pancakes,
but needed somethings to dothat,
baking powder,
found Cream of Tartar at Lidl and
bought some of that
saw aluminum in Aldi's baking powder,
and got a small low sodium elsewhere at Giant,
not double acting,
so some more to learn,
maybe end up more crepe like than
and had to but oil,
found some Olive Oil and looked for cooking
not salad marinade use...
So lighter...

And EBT lower than been since started,
between poker chips and using it a lot,
had stored up some food, didn't starve
during crash down time,
but a lot of it cans,
and can't use,
so use up what i can
and adapt, i guess...
will see how it goes...

Some edits no other previous postings,
looked up a lot of Royalty
German chancellor Merkel and
Megan Markle similar
at least ot a DysLexic...
many typos don't see how the keyboard
would do that, as not near
but arms, and pain, not typing much,
as often,
