Side stepping over buckets during P.T.
My Wednesday morning began this day at 5:30 a.m. by giving United Wheelchair a call to make sure I was to be picked up in Farmington this morning and to my surprise everything was a go for an 8:15 pick up. Once I had hung up the phone, I then preceded to begin my workout with my upper weight exercises. At 5:45 I then began to stretch. Once I had finished my workout, I then preceded to take my shower and get ready for the day ahead. At 6:20 I was then out in the kitchen having waffles for breakfast. Once I had finished eating them with some fruit, I then preceded to go back to my bedroom to brush my teeth. Once I had cleaned my batahroom, I had sat down at my desk to wrap some coins. At 8:00 I then called grandma before leaving. I had arrived at WestSide for 9:30 a.m. just enough time to put my lunch and clothing in my locker. I then met Maria in her office for my weekly counseling session. I had spoke briefly of my week, then preceded to show my weekly progress on the writing I am doing of my most recent concussion and stroke. At 10:00 I the had meet Mat in the gym for my P.T. session. Mat first had me walking on the tredmill. I had done so for twenty minutes. Matt had raised and lowered the incline as I was doing so. I had walked for twenty minutes before going out into the hallway. Matt had set up some small buckets, a step up from the cones I was using. Matt then had me side stepping over the buckets back and fourth eight times. Matt then put an erix pad in the middle sa as to have me step on the pad as I was stepping over the buckets. This had made it a little more challanging for balance. We then went to the paralle bars. There I had stood on the erix pad in the parallel bars. While doing so, matt and I tossed a five pound ball back and fourth. At 11:00 I then went to the conference room. We then told Maria and a new client who had joined the group where we the group had done presentations in the past. We then spoke of upcoming presentations we have upcoming. Deb then informed us of an upcoming presentation of which I called the Cascade Brook Middle School on to get the ball rolling. Deb then handled the finer details and organised a date February 24 from 3-5. It is a cival rights team meetting. We then began to plan our outing there by organising what hand outs we would like to bring on information on brain injury to give the students. We then went over activities, and personal stories. At 12:00 I then went to the dining area to eat my lunch with others. After doing so, I had taken a shower, I then wrote down information of tomorrow evenings special event, Paint Night. We will each be given a blank canvas, acrilics, and creat a master piece in two hours. After doing so, dinner wit be served. At 1:00 I then went back to the conference room for support group. Before group started, Deb had told me I that I would be starting skiing next week at Lost Valley with Matt. At 2:00 I then left for home. I had arrived home at 5:20 thus going strait to bed. I had slept from 3:13-5:20. I then had pea soup for dinner before returning to my bedroom to blog.
