getting around appears to be hard...
A conversation I had with Nick yesterday confirmed that getting around for him is rather difficult...
nick: Hi, mom.
me: How are you feeling? Are you still in pain?
nick: My leg is better? Mom, I got a letter from St. Bernard's collection agency. It said I owe $200.00 dollars and that I have a month from when the letter was sent to pay it.
me: Nick, that's from your leg injury last spring. Who is it from?
nick: Let me get the letter.
(Waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, and still waiting!)
nick: Okay, it say, "........!"
me: Bring it home on Saturday, Nick, and I'll pay it.
nick: Can't I just pay it on-line. The letter sounds threatening to me.
me: Sure, I'll give you my card information. (Another Nick bill!)
nick: Wait a minute, I need to get a pen.
(Waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, and still waiting!)
(Waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, and still waiting!)
Anyway, it can't be more than 10 steps to get from Point A to Point B from anywhere in Nick's apartment. Navigating on crutches is proving to be very time consuming!
