Emergency visit to the chiropractor

My Friday morning began at 4:00 a.m. by fixing myself a cup of hot cocoa to go with my fruit. Once I had finished eating my fruit, I then toasted myself a piece of Christmas bread, to go with my bowl of cereal. Once I had finished eating, I then made my bed. At 4:47 I then brushed my teeth and shaved. At 5:00 I then began to do my stretches that have been helping me each morning since having my last stroke. At 5:15 I then began to do my back stretches. At 5:25 I then went to the gym to cycle for twenty minutes. After going 2?.50 miles, I then held a calf stretches. I then grabbed the ten pound bar and continued my workout. After a number of presses using the chest press, I then returned to my apartment at 6:00. Once I had washed my dishes. At 6:05 I then took a shower, so as to get ready for the day ahead. At 6:15 I then put heat and ice on my back. I Then waited briefly before grabbing my knapsack and going To the lobby. At 8:00 Cheryl had arrived to take me to Westside. Upon my arrival to WestSide, I had sat in the lobby patiently waiting for my first therapy with Becca. During our rehab session she had first taken me to Dr. McLeans office so as to have my back adjusted. At this point, I was in a great deal of pain and did not want to go the entire weekend with it. Once Doctor McLean saw me and adjusted my back, we then went back to WestSide to play a game of chess. At 10:00 during hoop group we had stayed back at WestSide and went into the client lounge. I had played chess with Chandler while the other two clients played cribbage. After one game of chess, Chandler and I played two games of cribbage. At 12:00 I then went to the lobby to meet Annie from United Wheelchair. She would be taking my back. Upon my arrival, Annie dropped me off at the village green entrance so that I could go in and eat. Once I had done so, I then returned to my apartment 12:55. Once my teeth were brushed, I then lied down to rest. Just as I was getting ready to fall to sleep, my aunt had called inviting over to dinner Sunday. She then let me know to give her a call after my rest on Sunday. I then slept from o1:40-4:30 before waking. Once I had taken a shower, I then pulled up my blog and began to type of my day.
