Today is my discharge day from acute rehab. I have been working super hard the last week or so. Therapy has been three hours a day plus other work. I still didn’t meet all my goals, but it’s time to move on and reclaim my schedule.
This time has given me a chance to build different kind of routines, most notable goals being my prayer/bible time each morning. I am absolutely loving following along with the Adventure Bible.
I also have been enjoying reading or in fact listening to a book through Audible (right now I’m “reading” The Four Winds by Kristen Hannah. It is a long story but helping me reach my goal of reading a book each week.
I feel a little disappointed that I didn’t reach all my goals, most noteworthy of being able to stand completely on my own, but it is time. I will use the slide board if needed, but I think I will have that behind me soon enough.
So, my goal moving forward is not to panic or get stressed about the transition back to my apartment. My brother, Tim is going to meet me and help me get a little settled. I have a lot of packages to open and put away. Then, I have a special package to deliver to Yvonne (I ordered her a copy of Wicked), I want to print the newsletter and deliver it,
The next steps are going to be busy, but good. It’s a lot of waiting too- I need to wait for my Aflac payment as well as waiting for my plan G documentation.
I put in for extra help from Home Instead including an extra laundry shift, I think it will help on Monday when laundry will be due again.
I will need the tech to help pack up my clothes and assorted stuff that I’ve collected over the last couple of days. It’s a goal to have it organized. The plan is coming together.
