Working on my breathing in Yoga Group

I began my Tuesday morning at 5:00 a.m. bright and early. As I was doing my weight exercises and stretching, I thought to myself, Hmmm, How life would be if I did not have this stroke. It is amazing how productive my time has been during my recovery, but yet I feel that so much time has been waisted doing things to help myself get stronger in every aspect instead living life the way I had hoped to live. But yet I am so great full for the things I do have. I then am also thank full the insight I hold close to my heart and not giving up. Although there are days the path I am on towards recovery look gloomy, I focus on what I can do now that I could not three years ago. ie walk, eat, swallow, even breathing has geven me a problem. Oh, then there is the bathing issue, That I once was unable to do. And the list goes on and on. I AM GREAT FULL!!! Now I have that off my chest, My day over all went quite well. Especially now that I am back being transported by United Wheel Chair, After last weeks crazy fiasco. Once I was as WestSide for 9:00 a.m. I had gone to the conference room for Yoga group. Michelle and Carol first had us relaxing working on our breathing. We then did some chair flow yoga. At 10:00 I then met Courtney in the gym my P.T. session. I first got on the olyptical. I had gone 0.87 miles on level 1 at 2.3mph for twelve minutes. I then went to level three at 3.1 mph for eight minutes. After doing so, Courtney had me out in the hallway tandum stepping at 11:30. I then went back into the gym. Once I had three pound weights strapped around each ankle I then stood on an erix cuission thus working on my balance. I then stretched. At 11:00 I then met with Piper my case manager. She had me sign some papers for Pine Tree Camp, I was then on my way. During my fifteen minute break, I had taken a shower before meeting with Sally the nurse. We discussed health issues, I was then on my way. At 12:00 I then went to the dining area to eat my lunch. At 12:30 I then met with Deb. We spoke about liesure involvement. She and Tobie will be working on this with me in the up coming months. At 1:00 United then took me home. Taling about transportation. Two of my friends at WestSide were not so lucky to get back with United. I had arrived home at 2:10 thus going straight to bed. I had slept until 5:00 before getting up. I then went to the kitchen to eat dinner. before sitting down to blog.
