Discussion with my o.t. Nancy about my voc meeting next week

I began my Thurdsday moring earlier then usual. 4:00 a.m. by stretching. At 5:15 I then went to the kitchen to eat my breakfast. Once I had finished eating I then went downstairs to ride the swin air dine for a 30 minutes. Once I had finished exercising I then got ready for my day ahead. The dispatcher from United wheelchair had called my mother yesterday to see if it would be o.k. to pick up a little early so that he would not have to send two vans to Farmington, instead I went in with another client who had a 9:00 a.m. appointment. While I was waiting for my 11:00 a.m, P.T. appointment, Pat Halloway an employee at WestSide took me to an available treatment room for me to go to sleep in, and that I did. At 11:00 I then made my way to the gym for my p.t. session with Amanda. She first had me ride the bike for twenty minutes. In that time I went 1.39 miles. She then had me in the paralell bars doing knee raises. She then had me reaching over to pick up cones placing them on the oposite side to work shifting my weight from side to side thus trying to keep my balance. Amanda had put the gate belt on me so as to have something to grab onto just in case I were to lose my balance. Believe me she had to use it, more then once might I add. At noon I went downstairs to eat my lunch with other clients in the dining area. I then went to an open room across from the gym to rest. It is not like d'youville where I could go back to my own room and sleep but it works. At 1:00 during my o.t. session with Nancy, she first had me write out my concerns to bring up during my voc meeting next week. I then dictated to her concerns I has about voc rehab and my experiencs I have had with them, to be brought up at a hearing in a couple of weeks. We then wrote out an agenda for next weeks voc meetin. At 2:00 I then left westside I arrived home at 3:00. Upon my arrivel home I received a phone call from Vickey at WestSide to read to me my next weeks schedule. I then went downstairs at 3:30 to ride the swin air dine for fifteen minutes. I then went up to my bedroom to stretch for an hour. At 5:00 I then cleaned up to get comfortable for the night. Mom, dad and I then ate dinner. I then went to my bedroom to blog then go to bed at 8:00.
