Yesterday in exciting #StrokeSurvivor news, I ran thru the sprinklers at day rehab.
Was practicing walking on uneven lawn with cane and physio when the sprinklers came on. I quickly led us to safety, drawing on a childhood gauging the spray of Rain-Birds and such.
We both got hit. 
Next challenge: tackle the basement stairs, which has one handrail on the left (weak) side. The laundry room and my training bike “Veda” is down there.
On way to day rehab; one more week of OT/PT almost done and dusted. And I get a solo ride on the township bus, always a marker of a good day.
Talked to my orthotic guy yesterday, can get my brace cut back to save weight/be flexible later when PT plays it.

Off I go on the township bus to day rehab. I am still improving so they want me to keep coming until I plateau.
Now climbing the bus steps instead of taking the lift. The driver helps get the walker up.
Cane practice at rehab today.
Crap, it’s raining. I use a walker currently, so getting down the driveway to the township shuttle bus will be interesting.
Hoping by winter that I’m walking better.
Miss Catty Lavelle was super lovey-dovey-dovey last night; I slept upstairs and she went into a head-bonky ecstatic cuddlefest. I had debated whether to stay downstairs or make the effort, so I guess that was my reward.
Today in #StrokeSurvivor news…
I made it to the friggin second floor so I can take a shower and sleep in my own friggin bed for the first time since 11MAY25.
The steps were easier than I thought, the transitions at the top of the first flight of 4 and second flight of 10 steps were a little dicey
Mischief managed: a girlfriend picked me up for lunch, dropped me off at #DayRehab - and we’ll set up a standing date for doing exercises at home via phone. We did that during COVID when I could walk 3-6 miles for an easy workout.
Now, I can do a few hundred yards max.

My occupational therapy task for today: assemble this tub/shower transfer bench so I can take a shower safely.
My occupational therapist recommended this one, was bored so I put it together. No tools, seems very solid. #strokesurvivor

One day closer to going home from rehab.
Bringing big Borg energy to my #StrokeSurvivor journey today; Got my ankle/foot brace today. In a routine assessment this morning, was asked birthdate, location, and “who is the President of the United States?”
“That is a loaded question, I’d rather not say. But as you can see, I’m a #Resistor “
Is this good? 1. Latest I have been awake since my TGA episode, but I know it's because of special circumstances. Did art with the time #superstar
2. The whole day was good, despite cancelling time with friends to see mother in law 
luckily she was awake and in good spirits #strokesurvivor it was a shame to leave her and go & see spring flowers
3. But the whole day was good, so can I find 1 more moment? Sitting in the sunshine with no pressure To Do Something, breathing, quiet
a lava flow runs at 700-1200⁰)HE’S JUST LIKE ME FOR REAL 
One of my crushes sent me this and it basically hit me in the damn soul and I started crying laughing and had to share it here.
If I don’t know you or trust you, I would rather do ANYTHING ELSE than acknowledge that you’ve just flirted with me, but believe me, I know, and believe me, I’m Fucking Panicking. Often for YEARS. OOOPS
I do really like this guy, though…
