Working hard during P.T.

 My Tuesday morning began at 5:00 a.m. by making my bed. After doing my back stretches, I then continued with my stroke stretches. At 5:30 I then shaved and to took my shower, so as to get ready for the day ahead. At 5:37 I then went into the kitchen to drink a hot cup of cocoa while eating some fruit. After doing so, I then had a bowl of cereal with a half of a toasted english muffin. Once I had finished eating, I had returned to my bedroom to brush my teeth. After doing so, I had put in my eye and nose drops before taking in two puffs of air with my inhaler. Once I had done so, I then had cleaned my bathroom before putting an icepack on my back. While doing so, I listened to my audio book. At 7:30 United Wheelchair had arrived in my driveway. I was then on my way to WestSide. At 8:40 I had arrived at WestSide going strait to the gym for my P.T. session with Dan. I sat there waiting for twenty minutes before my session began at 9:00 a.m. Today Dan first strapped a gate belt around my waist. He then had me walking around the perimeter of the downstairs where the gym is located. He told me to walk until I got tired, at Dan's pace. you see his legs are shorter then mine and I tend to walk faster. I made it six times around before my legs began to get tired. We then went into the gym After resting a bit, Dan them had me in the parallel bars walking back and forth from one pole to the other. Dan then put a pad and block in the parallel bars and had me stepping up and down from the pad to the block. Then holding one foot on the block with my arms crossed while looking side to side at the pole on the right then the pole on the left. Dan then had me walk around the hall four times before taking the gate belt off. At 10:00 I then went to the conference room for games group. The entire group first played a game called outbreak. It is a game where you answer questions. At 10:30 Keileigh and Skylar had us playing Trash. At 11:00 A few of us played chess while the others played another game. I loved chess, but I lost today. At 11:40 I then played cribbage before leaving WestSide at 12:00. I had arrived home at 1:23. After eating half of a turkey sandwich, I then returned to my bedroom, brushed my teeth and slept from 1:40-4:15. Once I had taken a shower and was comfortable for the evening, I had gone into the kitchen to eat a salad before eating two slices of my mothers homemade pizza. At 5:32 I then returned to my bedroom to blog of my day.
