The wind was a killerl
I began my Thursday morning at 4:30 a.m. by going out into the kitchen to have a bowl of oatmeal and a toasted english muffin. Along with my hot cocoa and some fruit helped to make my meal complete. At 5:15 I had returned to my bedroom to brush my fangs and then I began to stretch. I had cut my workout short this morning do to the fact that I would be going to the gym today due to the wind chill we would not be going to Pine Land to cross country ski. Once I had showered, I then grabbed my gym bag and left for WestSide on United, which had arrived to pick me up at 7:30. Upon my arrivel to WestSide for 9:00 a.m. I had joined Dennis, Dianna, and Wayne in the lobby to wait for Tobbie. Tobie had first taken us all into the the conference room to talk about our experiences we have had with skiing. Tobie then touched upon topics like how to balance on the skis, what we should wear, Tobie then had us try standing in a pair of cross country skis. We then watched a videa on intro to classic and skate skiing. We then talked about improving balance. Tobie then had Diana while in the skis practice the star turn. At 10:00 we then grabbed our things and went to planet fitness to work out. While there we all did the eliptical. which a skiing type motion to it. I went two miles in twenty minutes. On our way back to WestSide tobie had asked me if I would be interested in joining a basketball group. She is planning to start one. Of course I had replied, "yes." Once we had returned to WestSide I had gone down to the kitchen to eat my lunch with Dennis. Who had informed on how he reiceived his brain injury through a concussion. Here is an individual in his early 40's who was living on his own, working for UPS and because of a concussion finds himself back home in Maine living with his mother, trying to start a new life. The struggles and challenges brain injury causes every day. You can eithe sit there and say why me? or go to rehab and make a new life for yourself. Once I had finished eating Uited then took me home. I had arrived home at 2:45 and went straight to bed. I had slept until 5:00. Once I was up I had taken my shower and then I went to eat a nice hot bowl of soup.
