Just going to put some examples of what I see most every day.
Weekly Shower Stool and Clothes
This is the stool I use each week when I take my shower. Usually these towels are all folded. After almost two years, I think this may be the first week they were not. I will try to post what this usually looks like.
An Almost Daily Surprise
Since Bert and Alexis have moved in, an almost daily deposit is left to be cleaned up. Once in a while one of the cats will do so also but I figure that what was once done 2-3 times daily is now done about every other day. Even for one cat I would pay attention to their litter. For 3 it is a real need. This particular surprise was left there for about 12 hours even though everyone else had walked past it including my caregiver who was there to take care of me at not this. I even rolled in some once and I did get help from my current caregiver to clean the wheels off. Fortunately for me she was willing to do that.
Things seem usually to be put in a place with little consideration as to whether they might be blocking my way. I have to either move it or figure out how I am going to get around it. I don’t get around too much. Bathroom, kitchen and back to the couch is the extent of my travels. Dirty clothes hamper, soda cases, dining room chairs not pushed in, trash bags and other miscellaneous stuff are all challenges I have to circumnavigate.
How the bathroom door was and is usually left

I also have to swing open the bathroom door further since I need to get my wheelchair by the door and if it isn’t open I just scrap the door as well as the jam. The pile of pads are a new thing but the door not open is the norm. Here’s what I did with those pads. Seemed like a simple solution.
Just by moving those pads, now I could open the door further.
I take Rolaids when my stomach is upset and it’s been happening more frequently. I keep them on the small table I use for eating. Molly accidentally knocked them off onto the floor in front of Stephanie.
