Ordinary Situations: I need another weekend to recover from this week!
http://ordinarysituations.blogspot.com/2010/05/i-need-another-weekend-to-recover-from.html
Monday, May 3, 2010. I need another weekend to recover from this week! This week has been a strange one. I had been planning to visit him the day he died. I wanted to sing him some songs in the hospital. He died a few hours before my planned visit, and I was really upset that I hadn't sung those songs to him - a hymn called come back to me, and some old songs like 'don't sit under the apple tree'. I love that story and I know that it's one I'll tell our children and keep in my heart forever. Our niece pu...

Ordinary Situations: Modified exercise and sport for above knee amputees
http://ordinarysituations.blogspot.com/2010/04/modified-exercise-and-sport-for-above.html
Tuesday, April 20, 2010. Modified exercise and sport for above knee amputees. My best to gather information, mostly from the net, about normal sports or exercises that have been modified to suit amputees. Probably mainly above knee amputees just because it's what I know. I want to teach myself - and then record my results - for yoga, tai chi, martial arts, swimming styles (this at least I already have experience with), gym techniques, cycling etc, but all. However, as far as I'm concerned, my. Research r...

Ordinary Situations: August 2009
http://ordinarysituations.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 2, 2009. TAFE - constant state of stress. No structured 'exam week' - instead, an exam every week or two, with assignments and prac reports galore. Never a chance to wind down, even over the holidays we had a TONNE of study and homework to do. Feeling utterly overwhelmed, not enjoying myself much anymore, just trying to get it finished. What is this word you speak of? I have been a craptastic mate this year, pretty much disappearing off the face of the earth. Every time I. I had done so we...

Training – August 2007. You are here: Home. Raquo; Archives for New prosthesis. Getting my prosthesis replaced (2010), part 2: having the socket cast. Comments Off on Getting my prosthesis replaced (2010), part 2: having the socket cast. So, this is a little in retrospect, but here it is! The new socket is progressing well – a few weeks back I went in for my cast, which is always when things start to feel a bit more real! Wear something expendable 😉. Was it inappropriate to go into that kind of detail?

Ordinary Situations: so I don't forget my first Port Fairy Folk Festival in many years!!!
http://ordinarysituations.blogspot.com/2010/03/so-i-dont-forget-my-first-port-fairy.html
Sunday, March 14, 2010. So I don't forget my first Port Fairy Folk Festival in many years! I didn't see any of the bands on Friday, as I got the train and bus down after work and arrived too late. Karl was good enough to pick me up from the bus stop. We got to the camping grounds and it was pitch black - pretty much straight to bed, which worked for me as I was tired and knew the next day would be exhausting. So I wandered to the free street part of the festival. that's where I ran into my aunt and u...

Ordinary Situations: November 2009
http://ordinarysituations.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 22, 2009. Goal/Plan/Idea 17/01/09: was inspired by ‘Towards Sustainability’ blog and a few amazing books like Animal Vegetable Mineral and Chemical Free Home. Started the ‘Ordinary Situations’ blog to document my steps toward a more principled life. Goal/Plan/Idea 18/01/09: research kangaroo meat and more about sustainable fish eating. But I have started learning to drive and will try to carpool as much as possible once I have my license, and I will make sure that wherever we buy a house...
