Early morning with some Jack Johnson :)

Hello!

Quick question- Do any of you wear braces to help you stretch? I wear a night time one but I end up taking it off sometimes because the nerves in my foot make my leg go numb! Yikes! Is there anything you do to overcome that?

Today feels like one of these day for me:

Jack Johnson – Banana Pancakes, aka best song ever!!

Can’t you see that it’s just rainin’
There ain’t no need to go outside

But baby, you hardly even notice
When I try to show you
this song It’s meant to keep you
From doin’ what you’re supposed to
Like wakin’ up too early
Maybe we could sleep in
I’ll make you banana pancakes
Pretend like it’s the weekend now

And we could pretend it all the time
Can’t you see that it’s just rainin’
There ain’t no need to go outside
Rain all day and I don’t mind

The telephone singing, ringing, it’s too early
Don’t pick it up
We don’t need to
We got everything we need right here
And everything we need is enough
It’s just so easy
When the whole world fits inside of your arms

Do we really need to pay attention to the alarm
Wake up slow, wake up slow …..

Hope you enjoy this song as much as I do :) Have a great day!

How to deal

Hey Guys…It’s Monday!

Monday’s always seem kind of motivating to me, it’s a fresh start to a new week! I always try to say I am going to stretch a little more, or do something to improve from last week. Hopefully I can keep my promise by the end of the week! I am also trying to cherish these last few weeks of summer until school, hopefully it won’t fly by! I think that is something we all should try to do… if you don’t do PT or stretching already, try to add it into your daily routine, it’ll only help you! You can ask me for some stretching exercises if you need a little refresher! I mostly have to stretch my calf muscle and ankle.

What have you all got going on for the rest of the summer? Have you been on any exciting trips or experience any breakthroughs on how to better deal with your CP? I would love to hear about how other’s see their disability because I feel like I am pretty optimistic, with the occasional downfall in certain situations, mostly social ones. I don’t always feel as confident as I can be. I have also learned that people don’t always even notice that I have CP sometimes! For instance, a lot of the time in soccer, people just think I am hurt ask me if I am ok… and I’ll just be say “I’m fine but thanks for asking..” Even some new friends won’t notice until I bring it up, so that makes me feel better about myself; like that isn’t the only thing that people pay attention to about me.

Well I think that is about it for today! Please feel free to comment, share your stories, worries, or questions by emailing me on the new contact page to the right, or commenting on any of the posts.

Stay happy and healthy, and have a great week!

-Katy
