4.22.15 “Wacky Sock Wednesday” #13 OR International

I was on-time for Barwis for Wednesday and I was glad.  I transferred to my chair and opened the door.  I was having some difficulty getting up the ramp so Connor pushed me in.  It was BUSY!  Georgie saw me and asked if I was with Mike again today.  I nodded and said, “Until I’m walking.” Mike came over and pushed me to the blue table.  He kneaded my calves and I told him that I slept through the night-ish from Monday.  I told him that I should be feeling the effects from the humidity more than I am in my legs (I’m feeling it in my fingers!).  I guess the muscles in my legs are elongating as Mike said was the goal so long ago.  I guess they aren’t constricting as much because lately, they haven’t been hurting as much.

A man came over, put his hand out, and introduced himself (he’s Alex) I took his hand and introduced myself.  I told him that I have MS and the more he spoke, I heard an accent.  I asked where it was from and he told me that the English-speaking countries he has lived in were here and the UK.  I asked him where else he lived, where his accent is from and he said, “Georgia.  The country not the state.”  I had never heard of that before!  I asked a MILLION questions as Mike had me lift my knees (with Karate Kid Magic) and had me lay back so he could stretch me.  Georgie had said he was from Georgia but I didn’t think much of it.  I thought he was talking about the state!

Alex said he was here until Sunday.  Look at that!  Barwis is international now!  I bet I’ve spelled both Georgie and Alex’s names wrong!  I will ask them if I see them on Friday.  I told Alex about “Wacky Sock Wednesday” because I asked Mike to take a pic of my socks.  He told me to have Megan take it and I told him that she was busy so he took one.    I don’t think Mike takes photography very seriously.
