Sun & Fun

Took the boys and one niece to the pool this morning.

They all had fun.

There is a slide at the pool that is tended by a lifeguard.

Hopefully the pics I took turned out.

This afternoon we went and picked up another niece from her work and had a look around the shops.

I got my eyebrows and eyelashes tinted.

Then when we got home we watched Butterfly Effect 3.

Interesting movie.

Tonight I'll go watch a niece play netball.

Tomorrow we go home.

This Rehab thing is getting old!

I am an impatient recoverer (is that a word :D)

I am so over having the stroke and just want life to back to normal.

I'm glad that I am able to do rehabilitation to help getting my right side back to working order again but since being home from hospital, the responses are alot slower.

I expected to be doing more and "feeling" more than I do right now.

My Rehab team are very happy with my results though and assure me that I'm doing extremely well for it only being 5 wks since the stroke.

Monday I was back at the pool, walking instead of swimming. That went for 25 minutes. Not long I know, but yeah, it was looooonnnnngggggg.

Then at lunchtime I started my rehab course.

I had Occupational Therapy for an hour, Speech Therapy where my swallowing and mouth/face/neck muscles were checked out (for an hour) and then finished it off with Physical Therapy. It was HUGE!

I was so tired come night time and Tuesday morning.
