strategies used to prevent choking

My Friday morning started at 7:30 a.m. by going out into the kitchen to eat a bowl of cereal and a toasted english muffin for breakfast. My parents had already both left to go to work, So the house was all mine. Once I had finished eating I then went back to my bedroom to take the sheets off my bed. I then put clean ones on thus making my bed. I then brushed my teeth, before bringing the dirty sheets down to the laundry room, plus whatever other laundry I had in my laundry basket. At 8:25 I then started a load of laundry before riding the swin air dine for thirty minutes. At 9:05 I then returned to my bedroom to do my weight exercises. Once I had finished, I then put some clean laundry away my mother had put by my door. At 9:40 I then returned to the lanudry room so as to hang the laundry to dry. At 9:50 I then started anothr load. I then made my way back upstairs to wash some dish's before going to my bedroom to stretch. At 10:25 I then put my individual daily pill containers in the dish water to soak. I then vaccuumed my bedroom. At 10:40 I had hung my sheets to dry. At 11:00 I then went back to my bedroom so as to dust the furniture. At 12:00 I then took my shower before starting another load of laundry. I was then feeling a bit tired, so I had lied down to rest at 1:00. I had slept until 3:30 before getting up. I then spoke to grandma briefly before going out into the kitchen to eat dinner. I have been using some strategies while eating, so as not to choke. Like clearing my mouth of fook before taking my next bite. This elieviates unnecessary food that may be trapped under the tongue or beside my teeth. I also follow each swollow with a drink of liquid. This helps wash down food so that my mouth is totally clear. I also tuck my chin before making a swallow this helps tremendously when taking that gulp. Once I had finished eating, I then returned to my bedroom to blog.
