Learning new things on the Ipad during O.T.

I began my Wednesday morning at 7:40 a.m. by going out into the kitchen to make myself a bananna sandwhich. While doing so I sipped on my hot cocoa. I had finished eating at 8:00. Upon doing so I Picked up the kitchen, I then started the dishwasher before going downstairs to ride the swin air dine for thirty minutes. At 8:45 I then returned to my bedroom to do my weigh exercises. At 9:00 I then put my laundry away before stretching. My mother then called to let me know what was in the refrigerator for lunch. That help save me some syeps when it came time looking for something to eat. Whith what vision I have and memory loss, that was a huge help. At 9:20 I then Jumped in the shower thus getting ready for the rest of my day. Once I had cleaned my bathroom I then started a load of laundry. At 10:00 I sat down to eat my lunch. Once I had finished eating I sat down to copy the notes I had been taking on my Ipad use into a little notebook. Thus keeping then organized. At 10:15 I then emptied the dishwasher thus putting the dish's away. I then hung laundry to dry just before United had arrived for 11:30. Upon my arrivel to WestSide for 1:00 I went directly to the conference room to join support group with Deb and Jen. Linda, Denise, Camie, Pete, and I shared our weekly events. First Denise went around trying to remember everyones name. We then stook up to put one fist in the center and say "STAY POSSITIVE!" Camie first shared, how she had her stroke last May. She also mentioned how she is having a hard time with the loss's in her life, reflecting back on what Dee Dee had shared last week. Denise had spoke about the two Doctor's appointments she had lat week. Denise also shared she was in a car accident and how she enjoy's theroputic horse back riding every week. I then shared how I miss skiing and running, and how I had run the beach to beacon the summer before my stroke. Pete then shared stories about his stroke. Pete also shared how he had made a corn chowder and invited his sister over. Linda had a stoke and was found on the floor three days later. At 2:00 I then went to the gym for my p.t. session with Dan. Today I first walked on the tredmill for 19:00. going 1.053 miles at 3.2 m.p.h. Dan then had me in the parallel bars stepping up on a four inck platform. ulternating legs. This was hard to do after walking on the tredmill. He then had me doing some weight shifting exercises. Be sure to put on that gatebelt. After what I had just done for exercise, I needed it on. At 3:00 during my O.T. session with Nancy we deleted some apts on my Ipad. She also showed me how to make my icons shiver and how to scroll four finger up the screen and what it does. "AMAZING!" At 3:30 Larry from United Wheelchair took me home. I had arrived home at 3:30 thus taking my shower, eating my dinner, sitting down to blog, I then went to bed. Few am I tired
