Woo gem show

Went to the gem show! With [personal profile] sithjawa! And my power chair!

10 foot ramp is long enough. End with the little extension is the tall end. Two people to handle it.

The back screws are still in my left jacket pocket.

Align the front first, then put back side of seat down.

It's possible to get the clutch unscrewed from where it needs to be screwed in, and this is a pain. Triple pain in the dark. I held the flashlight.

Put up the foot plate before loading.

Chocks to use as interior ramps are on order. Also need a ramp strap. And travel securement.

Gems were very shiny. Got some inexpensive wizard pendants etc. Told the guy that I do like jewelry that makes me look like a wizard.

Tried getting elotes on the way home but heat + Tajín = "it smells like poison" and I had Belovedest take the container to the outside trash and took one of my meds for chemo side effects. Woe. Should have opened windows.

Edit: and I almost forgot about one of the amazing parts: I met a trainee service dog! And I asked his person if she wanted to let him sniff my power chair and she was delighted!! Because it's important for service dogs to be chill about power chairs and I happened to be in a situation where we could take a few minutes to introduce him to the concept! And he was so brave!!!
