One handed shoe tying

Post by Carrie »

Hey, kids,
http://www.fieggen.com/shoelace/onehandedlacing.htm

I was playing around and found this page. This guy has a one handed knot diagram too, I haven't tried it yet but it looks like it might work well for us one handed tie-ers. There's also a bunch of fun different knots like the Halloween knot that are fun too.
Have fun,
Carrie

This is pretty cool. I have always avoided laced shoes because I can not tie them, and have to depend on someone else to do it. Next time I wear my tennies though, I may just surprise everyong by not needing help!

Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: LOBPI. I am 77 yrs old and never had a name for my injuries until 2004 when I found UBPN at age 66.

My injuries are: LOBPI on upper body and Cerebrael Palsy on the lower left extremities. The only intervention I've had is a tendon transplant from my left leg to my left foot to enable flexing t age 24 in 1962. Before that, my foot would freeze without notice on the side when wearing heels AND I always did wear them at work "to fit in" I also stuttered until around age 18-19...just outgrew it...no therapy for it. Also suffered from very very low self esteem; severe Depression and Anxiety attacks started at menopause. I stuffed emotions and over-compensated in every thing I did to "fit in" and be "invisible". My injuries were Never addressed or talked about until age 66. I am a late bloomer!!!!!

I welcome any and all questions about "My Journey".
