7:55am I’m feeling good this morning. I had a nice aid who put me to bed around ten last night. I was exhausted by then and soon fell asleep. But I only slept for a couple hours. I had a bad incontinence episode. I had to wait for a long time before the aid would change me. I was getting a little pissed again because I was laying in my own urine. But I did get changed was able to get more sleep. They let me sleep in until six this morning.

I was fairly awake and rating to go when I got in my wheelchair. I felt rested. I played with my new Kindle App. I was browsing books.before breakfast. I selected a few Stephen King novels. Already I have twenty books on my list. I found out about a book about Steubenville, OH . It is called The House on Seventh Street. It is about a woman married to the mob when the Mafia ran that town. Also I found a book about Judy Jordan. She was a nortorious Madam in Steubenville. It talks about her life and mob connection with the Mafia. Both books were not available on B&N. I think I’m going to like using this Kindle App better.

Breakfast came around seven. I had eggs with cheese, a sweet roll, hot cereal , hot coffee and oj. I must have my appetite back because I ate it all. Breakfast kind of perked me up even more. I feel very good this morning. I feelj like I can do some major ass kicking.

12:17pm They came to take me to physical therapy very early today. I made major progress. I had two stand on my feet for three minutes the first time and four minutes the second. I was able to stand on my own by grabbing onto the rail and pushing myself up. The hard part was getting out my jaw it. But I did ok. I did better today than yesterday.

Then I did leg exercises. I had to do two sets of twenty for each exercise: kicking side to side and marching I did the best I could but could not move my left leg very well. After that arm exercises then my wheel broke. I don’t know what was wrong with it. They worked on it for a couple hours. They gave me a temporary one I kind of like this one better.

I ran into an old acquaintance while in therapy. I saw Tim.bhebdidnt look very well at all. He said he was better than when he first came in. We didn’t have much to say.

I finally got back to my room by 11:30. It’s almost time for lunch. I’m having beef lasagna, tossed salad and sliced pears. Sounds pretty good.
