It's Leap Day

I began my Wednesday morning at 6:30 a.m. by doing my stretching and weight exercises. At 7:30 I then made my way to the kitchen to eat my breakfast. I had peanutbutter and honey on english muffin. Once I had finished eating I then started a load of laundry. Once I had the wash going I then took my shower. After my shower I then went dowwnstairs to hang the laundry to dry. At 8:30 I then started another load of laundry. I then brushed my teeth thus cleaning my bathroom. I then hung hung the second load to dry before United had arrived to bring me to WestSide. Before leaving I took a reading with my air flo meter. 500, 510, 500. Upon my arrivel to WestSide I first had P.T. with Amanda. Amanda first had me on the NuStep peddling for fifteen minutes. In that time I managed to go one mile. Amanda then had me walking on the floor on the lower level at WestSide. With the gatebelt around my waist she held a close reign. We were going at a gook clip. It is much easier walking fast to keep my balance, but my foot did get week after a while. The first time I did four laps. Amanda had told me it was even hard for her to keep up with me. I walked 660 feet. After a brief break sitting in the gym We did it again. the second time I managed to do three laps at a slower pace. What was good about it I did not use my inhaler, and did not have any problems. Amanda then had me in the parallel bars doing leg bend, squats, and leg raises. I then went to the dining area to eat my lunch. Once I had finished eating my lunch, I then had support group in the conference room with Deb and Nancy. Once we had checked in we then discussed, How do you tell others about your brain injury? What is it like living with a brain injury? At 2:00 United then brought me home. I arrived home at 3:00. I went straight to my bedroom to begin doing my weight exercises, both arm and leg. At 4:00 I then did my stretching. I then rode the swin air dine before taking a shower. I then went to the kitchen to eat my dinner before going to my bedroom. I spoke to my friend Stacie before sitting down to blog. I then called it a day.
