Riding an incombant bicycle during p.t.

I began my Wednesday morning at 7:00 a.m. by going out into the kitchen to some fruit and drink my hot cocoa. I then preceded to have a bowl of cereal and half a toasted bagel. Once I had finished eating, I then said good-bye to my mother as she left for work. I then returned to my bedroom. I first brushed my teeth and shaved, I then began my workout. At 7:40 I then strapped on the ankle weights and away I went. Once I had finished raising my legs in every direction possible I then stretched. At 8:15 I then began to work my upper body with weights. At 8:25 I then did some walking in the front yard. After doing so, I returned inside to take my shower and get ready to go to therapy. I then grabbed my knapsack and lunch and out the door I went. Upon my arrival to WestSide, I had put my lunch in my locker before making my way to the conference room for Brain Injury Education Group. Today presenting at a health fair in Buckfield was brought up. We then continued to work on my story with Deb and Michelle. At 12:00 I then went downstairs to the dining area to eat my lunch. At 1:00 I then made my way back to the conference room for support group. We first started the group by standing up and saying stay positive. We then shared how our week had gone with Deb and Maria. We then stood and said stay positive before leaving. At 2:00 I then met Mat in the gym for my P.T. session. Matt first had me walk on the treadmill for twenty minutes. As I was doing so, he would raise the incline and make it go slower and faster. In doing so I was working on my balance with the imphamua gate belt strapped around my waist. Before I had started my P.T. session with Matt Lydia had said I have a surprise for you today Troy. West Side had just purchased an incombant bicycle. I then had gone out into the back parking lot to use it with Matt. It was quite the workout with my legs, but at the same time, FUN!!!. At 3:00 I then went inside to meet with Maria for my counseling session. Todays discussion was focussed on talking about independence. At 3:30 Roger from United took me home. I had arrived home at 5:00. Upon doing so, I had gone inside to take a shower before sitting down to blog. What an exciting day!!!
