Thoughts on the Side

I learned a few years back that I'm technically not a paraplegic. i
can't remember what they classify me as now. Had the accident happened
now, I would probably be able to walk unassisted. My injury was in the
lumbar so quite low which is the best. If you have to break your back,
the lower the better. I never spent much time in a chair. I have one
just in case I need it (like if I break a crutch which has happened
more than once but because it happened so many times, I have lots of
singles so I don't need the chair). 

I dont' remember if I mentioned that I stayed married for twenty
years. Laziness I guess. Easier to deal with the devil you know. 


So if this first section was in a book, would it make it more
interesting if I broke it up to tell in little pieces? Or would it lose
some momentum?  I know I don't need make those decisions now. I'm
looking at this as a first draft and in my case, I think just getting
it all out is what I need to do. I've started various versons of this
story but I get stuck trying to create a style first.  

Thanks for reading this. I am a ham, I like an audience. I think it
helps me to stay focused.
