I went to Fred Meyer, yesterday, because, um, having been in the midst of moving, and unable to walk, there were some necessities I wasn't able to pack before I left.
Fred Meyer has these lovely electric carts for mobility impaired folks, which is great. But, uh. Not all of the store is really organized for their use. I clipped a display stand with the back of the cart, and the Auton leapt down mannequin fell on me.
Brilliant, right? I was mostly unharmed. My left index finger is still pretty swollen, but there doesn't seem to be any actual significant damage.

(The manager and customer service clerk person were both very helpful and friendly, and all the appropriate paperwork has been filed.)

In other news, today I overdid a little by hobbling all the way from the Tikahtnu theatre allllllllll the way to the Pet Smart. Which, on the one hand, is only across the parking lot(s), but on the other is about a quarter mile. My knee is less happy with me, this evening, and I'm sort of assuming that's why.

look up other places with the carts - here there are a couple of malls with them - would give you a place to go and potter around..

It 'might' be possible to rent one somewhere either..when mum was mobility impaired we were looking up tourist places which rented them out..

It's a long time to sit around unable to move (apart from anything else)
I hope the weather is kind and makes it so that sitting outside and relaxing is an option.
