Exercises

Yes, as the title mentions, I've been doing a bit! I now have a pedometer, so I'm counting all my steps around the Hotel and the SU. I get in extra ones whenever I can.

Today was a lot of different exercises. At first, it felt as if a lot of my day was an exercise in futility, but eventually, I saw that my work was paying off. Patients got updated orders and the MDs on the unit were happy I got them what they needed.

I also had an exercise in compassion. I had the pleasure of sitting with one of our confused characters and calming him/her down. It took a little while, but worked. So well, in fact, that I would have fist bumped anyone walking down the hall had they been there.

And finally, the real exercises come out. Dumbbells and bands and medicine balls, here I come!

Stay tuned...
