Goals for today were:
Walk 9 times (20 feet each time): Walked twice, once to get inside Texas Roadhouse, once to get out.
Work on getting a drink of water: Well he got some water, but it was delivered by the waitress. :)
Pat is still pretty focused on what he ate for dinner so he is having a hard time giving an update on his progress today. :) Let's just say I think he ate more than his weight... It was amazing that either of us could walk out to the car. Good thing walking is his goal, not loosing weight. He did say however, that he noticed a lot of people passing him today while he was walking, and it seemed to bother him quite a bit to be the granny driver. While he didn't get many walks in, he mananged to untangle himself from the rug quite nicely, carry on a conversation with the wait staff while walking, and boost himself up into the booth. What he wouldn't give to be an inch or two taller. While he is not making the progress strength wise that I would like, his ability to manuever himself in and out of tight situations is getting so much better. A situation like the rug trying to give him the smack down would have knocked him down for the count a few months ago, now it is hardly an obstacle.
We just want to say that our friends who stopped by to wish Pat Happy Birthday today are so amazing. We are so blessed to have been born into such wonderful families and to be able to adopt those of our own choosing as well. We certainly couldn't do much of anything without your support and concern.
Pat's goals for tomorrow:
To walk 11 times (20 feet)
To try to get a glass of water with the walker without spilling any on the dogs
