Little victory

Yesterday I went to the walk in clinic because of course, I get sick on a Friday and my doctor's office is closed.  So I walk in and the first thing I do before I even register is take a quick scan of the waiting room to see if the chairs have arms on them.  Much to my dismay, they all do.  So I go up to register and the receptionist tells me that it's going to be at least a 2 hour wait.  I don't care about the wait time, I am worried about how bad my hips are going to hurt from being squeezed between the arms of those chairs.  So I reluctantly chose a chair and prepared to squeeze my hips in.  I lowered my butt and OMG I FIT!!!  I sat there for 2 and a half hours waiting for the doctor and I wasn't even uncomfortable (except for a couple of numb butt cheeks).  Now there wasn't much room on either side but at least I wasn't in pain the whole time.  It's the little things that we appreciate so much. :)

the littlest victories give the biggest smile.
all the best

That would be a big victory for me too!  It must have felt so good!

I look forward to sitting at those tables where the seats with backs are attached to the table....I can't tell you how many embarassing times I've tried to wedge myself between the table and the chair!

I feel the same way!  Great NSV!

That's so great! Sorry to hear you are sick though :(

Thanks!  It's nothing that some antibiotics can't cure.  Even though I felt like **** I had a smile in my heart sitting in that chair! LOL

What a great feeling!
Hope you feel better soon.

Congrats on this first of many small victories!! Feel better soon!!

Great NSV

It is all those "little" things that we appreciate, isn't it LOL 

I use to hate when some one wanted to seat in a restaurant in a booth, I would be so uncomfortable, now I don't mind at all LOL

Take care and feel better soon

What an awesome feeling. That need to scan the room and the seats takes a long time to go away.  I can totally relate!  At a banquet I still scan for the most spacious route out so I don't embarrass myself squeezing between chairs!

This is a great accomplishment for you and will keep getting better!  Well except for the butt cheeks....they will hurt more!  lol
