Calling all entrepreneurs, designers, craftsmen…everyone! 3 Comments - Leave a Comment ]]> Wed, 14 Oct 2009 14:31:21 -0500 http://www.lessthanfour.org/swells/blog/2009/10/14/calling_all_entrepreneurs_designers_craftsmeneveryone http://www.lessthanfour.org/swells/blog/2009/10/14/calling_all_entrepreneurs_designers_craftsmeneveryone 3 Comments - Leave a Comment ]]> 0 Randomness I always think, hey I haven't posted a blog soon, I should do that, so then I go to post and I can't think of anything to write...pretty lame for a self-proclaimed writer, I know.

I suppose I should talk about my latest leg update.  I've had the c-leg for awhile now, and I absolutely love it!  I've only had the battery die once, haha, that was early on I forgot to charge it for three days straight.  But I've gotten to the point where I am super comfortable with it now, I even wear my high heels every now and then, and I feel way more confident in then than I ever did with my other leg.  Major love for the c-leg.  The only thing I wish I had for it, was some kind of water proof cover.  My brother got me into hiking, and the area where we go hiking has a lot of creeks we have to wade through, and I want to have the stability of my c-leg when I'm trekking through the hills and woods, but I need something that I can still just walk through the streams.  The last time we went hiking my brother carried me across two streams, total gentleman of him, I know.  So, who's with me on starting a petition to have Otto Bock create some kind of water proof cover for the c-leg for hiking and similar recreation purposes?! 

On another note, I am also in the process of getting one of those life-like covers!  Super excited, possibly the most excited by the fact that they are letting me have two legs!  One for me to have the cover on, and one so it still looks like my way cool robot leg!  If only I could get my treasure map socket back, it would be perfect!

Anyway, that's about all I can think of right now.

I hope everyone has a splendid 4th of July!  And a wonderful summer altogether!

Wow! Eleven Years Already! Yep, it's been eleven years and nearly a month since my amputation!  Hard to believe its been that long!  But at the same time, I barely remember what it was like before.

I think the biggest evidence of the time passing is the amazing advances in the technology!  Eleven years ago I started out on the newest and greatest knee out there!  Last year I found out that knee is know "crap", and now, I'm on a rockin awesome new knee!  Amazingly, there's already technology out there that goes beyond what I have.

I can't wait to see what the next eleven years have in store for me!
