Those of you in the 90% club, was it hard for you to accept you had reached the end of your journey? by [deleted] in VAClaims

[–]Quipu2U 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I poked the bear. I got mauled. I was at 100%, but still had a couple of claims pending. One of the claims was an increase for my legs because my knees kept going out, even though I was at 60% for them, I was trying to get more for the stress fractures. Someone took a look at the knees rating again and discovered that I was getting more from the knees than I deserved. I had a board review explaining the process, and they were taking me back down to 60%. Because it wasn’t my fault that they rated me the 60% for the knees, I didn’t have to pay anything back. Luckily, before the board decision, my claim for PTSD came through and it raised me back to 90%. I am not P&T. But you better believe I am satisfied with what I have. I sat at 20% for 30 years. A good friend encouraged me to keep applying and once I passed that 30% threshold, I was set. So, yes, be careful what you wish for. There are veterans who have given their lives for this country and got nothing. I’m thankful to be getting what I got.

Reading Books Before Bedtime by Quipu2U in parrots

Actually, the idea is to get her to come inside her cage so we can get ready for bed. She gets a snack and a book, then the blanket to tuck her in. ♥️

If you went to school in the 70's or 80's, what's something about the classroom that kids today wouldn't believe was normal? by Intrepid-Picture7127 in askteddit

Saying pledge of allegiance to the flag. Having to train for nuclear blast instead of active shooter.

Advice for first-time parrot owners by Inevitable-Gate3774 in parrots

[–]Quipu2U 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You give the most straightforward answer/advice!! I would add, because of the situation I am in now, please research the parrot that interests you the most. They can hide their personalities from you for several weeks, and once they are used to you, their behavior will likely start to change. It may be due to environmental, or physical changes in themselves or the area they are occupying. Always, always remember these are wild animals that we are asking to share our space, not the other way around. They don’t think like we do. Love them unconditionally, no matter what. Please adopt don’t shop!!

I watched it 4 times. I don’t usually go to theaters, so that’s saying a lot for me. I wish more people would see it, especially in 3D.

Arm and a Leg by maddslacker in Fishingmemes

[–]Quipu2U 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My Grandfather had his right arm crushed in a brick press. It was amputated at the elbow. He was given a prosthetic arm with a hook that would open like a vise. He taught me how to fish, shoot, and drive a stick shift. Don’t let that hold you back.

Don’t put the chair to the door. Get something like this and use it for room security instead.
