Amber's Abode

me with a fan blowing my hair

I'm 31 and live in Portland, Oregon. I have cerebral palsy, and use a power wheelchair.

I love anything to do with music, especially karaoke recently, computers, Anime, kids, people, writing, reading, watching movies, enjoying outdoors when it's not raining, pretty much life in general.

I play Scrabble fairly well, and I'm currently working on improving my almost nonexistent chess game. I'm hoping to get further into digital photography soon as another outlet.

My newest hobby is playing Texas hold em for free, online or in person, and I'm getting pretty good at it.

Like all starving writers, if you can afford to donate it, I would appreciate it.

 

Primal scream!

it just gets worse and worse.  They're shutting my house down because the licensor lady won the little petty war she was having with my caregivers because they reported her for bad practice once last year.  She found some little nitpicky way to get back at them, so four innocent bystanders are now homeless.  30 days to find somewhere to live.  I'm scared because I know I'm not going to find another place as good as this, unless I can find a friend who is a caregiver and I can move in with them.  If you know anyone like that, please let me know.

Meanwhile, my friend Max is in the hospital again, no longer able to really swallow at all and in lots of pain and hunger.  This is really getting to be too much to deal with.  Positive energy, please.  And write back if you can even if you don't know what to say.  Your words will help.
