Talking to Cec about adding a nursing session back onto my schedule

My Tuesday morning began at 5:00 a.m. by making my bed. After doing so, I then began to do the stretches I had learned to help me during my last stroke. At 5:15  then began to do my back stretcheches. Once I was all loosened up, I then cycle for twenty minutes. At At 5:52 I was then back in my bedroom shaving before taking my shower. Once I was ready for the day, I had gone back into the kitchen at 6:20 so as to eat some fruit with fruit dip. At doing so, I then had a bowl of hot cereal with a toasted english muffin. At 6:35 I then retunred to my bedroom so as to brush my teeth. Once I had my eye and nose drops in, I then used my inhaler. At 6:50 I then filled my empty pill containers At 7:00 I then grabbed my knapsack and met Buzz the United Wheelchair driver in my driveway. Ihad arrived at WestSide Neurorehab at 8:45. I had gone to the client lounge to wait to meet with Priyadarshi. He had asked me how my book was going, and how things are going with the devision of the blind. Now that I am using my white cane again, he was curious. At 10:00 during my rec therapy session, Tobie was out, so I had played cribbage with Ashly. At 11:00 I then met with Cec for Expressive Arts in the craft room. It was only me, so she wanted to touch base on my medical needs. She being a nurse after all. She also had asked if I would not mind turning this time into a nursing session so as to talk about my new medications to do with my seizures and the inhaler for my asthma that is helping, but caused my voice to go horse after each use morning and night. Although I do not notice it at night as much, because I am in bed. And then there is my rescue inhaler which I was just using until asthma  became worse. Cec then called my doctors office so as to request that I try another inhaler. They said that they would call my house tomorrow with an answer. Cec also had asked me to bring in the list of my medications that I am now taking. Cec then took my blood pressure so as to wrap up the session. 120 over 76. We then looked up popcycle stick craft ideas on pintrist. I decided to make a bird feeder. At 12:00 I then went into the lobby so as to meet the United Wheelchiar driver who would be taking me home. Upon my arrival home at 1:00, I had put on something more comfortable before having a bowl of soup with kayl. I then brush my teeth before laying down to rest. I had slept from 1:20-4:35 before waking. Once I had taken a shower, I then went into the kitchen so as to eat dinner. At 5:17 I then retunred to my bedroom so as to pull up my blog and to type of my day.
