Break in the story to chat a little about diapers again, lol.

So I found a medical supply store in Oakville that sells Attends, meaning that I don't have to basically give up my entire day before work just to go out and buy diapers. Unfortunatly they're the old kind, so they cost more (about the equivilant of going into Toronto and buying a bag).

They're REALLY comfy, though. COmfier than the ones I normally use, and that's saying something. They don't fit well into my pack, so I'm not sure they're the best for wearing around town and being active (since I have a pocket in my pack that PERFECTLY fits two of the normal Attends that I wear).

One more month of work left, then I get to go back into pullups and diapers full time. Looking forward to that. I think I'll try it for a full month this time, mostly using pullups during the day but with the occasional diaper if I'm going to be out and about for prolonged periods (like going to a movie).

Still shopping around for a pair of forearm crutches. A wheelchair is out of my price range at the moment, but when I DO get one I have a place to store it (in my storage locker)...though I don't have anywhere to USE it. Which is unfortunate.

I'm hoping that after this school year I'll be able to get my own 1 bedroom appartment in Toronto, though there's a chance I'll end up house sitting for a year for a friend of the family who's going to the UK. Either way I'll hopefully be able to use a wheelchair freely around wherever I end up living. I'm not going to go full time like Ahiru, or even be able to pull off the short outings like Cathy (who has a car)...but I'll figure out something.

And now I'm off to work. I'll post more of the Kate-story when I get home.
