I have an appointment with my new psych doctor this morning. Means I have to venture into the downtown area. Pretty much just a get to know each other kind of deal. My mental health has been pretty stable. I’m actually excited about going into the city at large today. I normally keep to my suburb as my town is big enough it has everything I need within a few minutes of my house. First time I’ll be in the city in a few months.

The summer has been real hot for the most part. One the days it’s cooler than normal, it rains. We haven’t had the problems with fires this summer like we did this spring. I’m looking forward to autumn.

Was turned down for an apartment complex I applied for. Turns out the place is for mostly senior citizens age 62 and up. Since I’m only 43 I don’t qualify. It seems like most places that are easily handicap accessible are mainly for elderly. Looks like the wait is going to continue for the foreseeable future. I just don’t understand why, in a nation that have obvious affordable housing shortages, we don’t just build more places. Sounds almost like a lack of a supply to meet the increased demand. But, it’s not like young people don’t want to have their own houses and apartments. It’s that we can’t afford most of what is available.

Making most of my own meals now. I can now navigate my wheelchair through everywhere in the house. The doors are too narrow for a wheelchair to get through. But I can hobble thru until I can find a place to sit. I’m up quite late most nights. But I usually get more done at nights than during the day.
