Fitbit

Back before my trip to Colorado to see if my mean, cruel, ex-stepmother was settling in well into her new residence in Westcliffe, I had a leg rebuild and a foot replacement - thanks to a psycho driver whom really wanted to run me over!  While I was in the office, hopping around, I picked up a pile of brochures to read through.

A few of them were on job opportunities, well Kris does need to make a buck after-all, if I am ever to get out of debt!  Most of the flyers were old and the studies were closed, but there was one for the Veterans Administration which was still open.  I hated to make the call to find out but, as I said, I want out of debt!  And they hired me for the study!

Well, it took a few months for their slow wheels to turn.

The study is to see how well an amputee does with a Fitbit.  Never heard of it, other than from internet friend Kelly, never even seen one before!  So, it has arrived and viola! No instructions!

I clipped it on to my shoe, no idea what else to do with it!

So, for the next two years I will be wearing this little thing and somehow be sending in my data ever so often.  It will not pay much but pennies are pennies after all!

Best part is, the next test, if I want to do it - is an articulated ankle test! 

Yesssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!
